This was a hilarious 'change of pace/return to form' for J.M. DeMatteis. After leaving JLA for Spectacular Spider-Man, he checked his funnybone at the door, and plunged Peter Parker into months of turmoil and hell, dealing with the likes of 'Harry Goblin' and Puma, all with a sense of pathos, foreboding, and depression that would make Tom ("Funky Winker-kill-me-now-bean") Batiuk look like Pollyanna. This issue gave JMD a chance to re-embrace the goofy, as the Webhead and two generations of the fiercest fighters in all frogdom duked it out with the White Rabbit(scourge of Kwikee Burger, a leftover from Frog-Man's Marvel Team-Up appearance in 1983), and the Walrus, who...um...was a...stupid fat guy, who, er...dressed up like a walrus. The issue was crammed with forced Lewis Carroll references, and less-forced "BWAH-HA-HA"s, concluding with a dedication to "Keith 'n' Andy"...no last names necessary!

I enjoyed these issues much more than you might think. I enjoyed these issues much more than you might think I did. I think the title remained solid all through Al Milgrom's run culminating with the showdown with the Kingpin in #100. Love those Milgrom covers too. Good stuff. And I like the spot. And I love when he returned YEARS later in the title under JMD.
