“Jägarens hämnd”

"Jägarens hämnd" kicks off with Peter Parker stepping away from his Spider-Man duties, trading the web-slinging for campus life after growing weary of J. Jonah Jameson’s harassment and worrying over his aunt’s health. When a discarded Spidey suit ends up in the Daily Bugle’s hands and Jonah proudly displays it, Peter’s quiet life begins to shift—just as crime surges in the city, tied to the Kingpin’s rising power. Written by Stan Lee and illustrated by John Romita with inks by Mickey Dimeo, this 1979 issue captures a pivotal moment in Peter’s journey, with a cover by John Romita that perfectly frames the tension between heroism and retreat.
