"To Stalk a Spider!" Part 2 of 2. Script by Gerry Conway. Pencils by John Romita. Inks by John Romita and Tony Mortellaro (backgrounds). Cover by John Romita and Frank Giacoia. Sometimes a comment made in passing can have dire consequences. When Spider-Man brushed off the Gibbon's plan to become a superhero, he didn't know -- that the novice Gibbon would fall into the hands of Kraven the Hunter! And after imbibing on Kraven's jungle potions, the Gibbon is ready to kill the web-slinger! Rest assured...the wall-crawler will take the Gibbon very serious during their next encounter! In the meantime, Aunt May has seemingly disappeared from New York City after having a tiff with Gwen Stacy. Where did she go? Cameo appearances by Joe Robertson, J. Jonah Jameson, and Gwen Stacy. (Notes: John Romita is credited as a co-plotter of the story. This issue begins Gerry Conway's 3-year run as the writer of the Amazing Spider-Man title. This story was reprinted in Marvel Tales #90.) 36 pages. Cover price $0.20.

But what if the man providing the means and the materials were none other than the Avengers' long-time foe, the Grim Reaper? During a clandestine meeting on the lower east side, the questions are asked. Now what will be the Vision's answers? Meanwhile, the Sentinels (last seen in Uncanny X-Men 59) have set their sights on a different team of super-heroes! Specifically Earth's Mightiest Heroes! And even more specifically the Scarlet Witch! When Wanda takes an evening walk through Central Park, the Sentinels strike!
