Marvel Tales #221 – Spider-Man – 1989

Marvel Tales #221 – Spider-Man (1989) reprints the story originally told in Peter Parker - The Spectacular Spider-Man #82, a thrilling continuation of Spider-Man's street-level saga during the early '80s. This issue plunges readers into the gritty underworld of New York City as Peter Parker faces escalating threats that blur the line between heroism and survival.

Written by Bill Mantlo with striking artwork by Al Milgrom, this instalment showcases the ever-complicated life of Spider-Man, where personal conflicts are just as intense as the villains he battles. In this tale, Spider-Man becomes entangled in the lives of those caught in the crossfire of organised crime, and his sense of responsibility is pushed to the brink. The emotional weight and sharp characterisation in this issue make it a standout from The Spectacular Spider-Man run, and it's beautifully preserved in this 1989 reprint.

The dynamic cover and faithful interior reprint make Marvel Tales #221 an essential pickup for collectors, nostalgic readers, and fans of classic Spider-Man storytelling. This comic offers a snapshot of Marvel's grittier narrative tone at the time, with authentic tension, dramatic pacing, and compelling street-level conflicts.
