    "The Coming of Ka-Zar!" Part 1 of 2. Guest-starring Ka-Zar. Script by Stan Lee. Pencils by John Romita and Don Heck. Inks by Mike Esposito (as Mickey Demeo). Cover by John Romita. The news is good and bad for the Amazing Spider-Man. First the good...the web-slinger helped defeat Doc Oc at the end of last issue. Next the bad...he still has amnesia! So the wondrous wall-crawler is swinging around Manhattan not knowing who he is or where he lives. What a quandary! Meanwhile, Lord Kevin Plunder (aka Ka-Zar) arrives in New York City with Zabu. And the first person he bumps into is J. Jonah Jameson! True to form JJJ convinces Ka-Zar that Spider-Man is a menace! And the Lord of the Jungle sets out to bring the web-slinger to justice! When Ka-Zar finds the web-spinner...the rhubarb begins! At first Spider-Man has the advantage, but then the big cat enters the fray! Will Zabu send the wall-crawler to a watery grave? Cameo appearances by Aunt May, Anna Watson, John Jameson, Captain Stacy, Gwen Stacy, and Harry Osborn. (Notes: This issue is the first meeting between Spider-Man and Ka-Zar.
