    "Peter Parker--Criminal!" Guest-starring Matt Murdock (aka Daredevil). Script by Denny O'Neil. Pencils by Luke McDonnell. Inks by Jim Mooney. Cover by Frank Miller. Peter Parker infiltrates Ryker's Island prison to investigate why so many super-criminals have escaped recently! However once Aunt May's nephew slips inside, the Grey Gargoyle and Jonas Harrow turn the tables on the daring photographer! And suddenly Spider-Man's alter ego ends up behind bars! What a revolting development! But thanks to a superb legal defense by the Man Without Fear, the web-slinger gets a chance to clear his name! Can the wall-crawler unearth the evidence to exonerate Peter Parker? Cameo appearances by J. Jonah Jameson and Aunt May. (Notes: This cover is among a trio of Marvel covers in the early 1980's that featured super-heroes behind bars. See Avengers 224 and Captain America 260 also.) 32 pages. Cover price $0.50.
