In "Homesick," Spider-Man grapples with the cost of heroism when a rescue mission for Jonah falls flat, while Aunt May’s health takes a sudden turn during a protest for the elderly. Flash’s return to a ruined apartment turns into a nightmare when the Green Goblin reappears—Spider-Man’s resolve tested as he faces the terrifying moment when Flash is thrown from a window. Written by Len Wein and illustrated by Ross Andru, Jim Mooney, and Tony DeZuniga, with colors by Glynis Wein and letters by Joe Rosen, the issue’s cover by Marcelo DiChiara captures the tension of a hero at his breaking point.
