Story:
"Carrion, My Wayward Son!" Script by Bill Mantlo. Pencils by Jim Mooney. Inks by Frank Springer. Cover by Keith Pollard and Bruce Patterson. The Maggia and Big M break into the Citicorp Center with their new powerful weapon...the Tri-Man! The web-slinger happens to be close by and swings into the bank to stop the robbery. However, the wall-crawler is not prepared to battle both the Tri-Man and the Masked Marauder in close quarters! Can the Spectacular Spider-Man stave off the Tri-Man and dodge Big M's opti-blasts at the same time? Meanwhile, the White Tiger (aka Hector Ayala) clashes with a street gang in South Bronx, and a new ghastly villain reveals his hatred for Spider-Man. First appearance of Carrion. (Notes: This issue begins a seven-issue run in the Spectacular Spider-Man series that features the best stories in the early years of the title. This issue also includes a full page ad for the Korvac saga taking place in the Avengers series. Art by George Perez.) 32 pages Cover price $0.35.
