Σπάιντερ Μαν [Spider-Man] #390
Spider-Man #390 (1988) delivers a clever twist on identity and deception, with Dr. Doom scheming to use Spider-Man’s reputation against the Fantastic Four. When the real Spider-Man refuses to play along, Doom’s plan backfires spectacularly—leading him to mistake Flash Thompson, dressed as Spider-Man for a prank, for the actual web-slinger. Written by Stan Lee and illustrated with sharp precision by Steve Ditko—whose distinct pencils and inks define the issue’s look—this story blends classic menace with a humorous misidentification, all capped by a striking cover by Ditko.
