The Amazing Spider-Man #535
In "The War at Home: Part Four of Six," Peter Parker confronts the weight of his choices during the Civil War as he and Iron Man visit Reed Richards to investigate the Negative Zone prison known as Number 42. Torn between loyalty and principle, Peter grapples with regret—only to be suddenly attacked by the man he once trusted. J. Michael Straczynski’s gripping narrative, brought to life by Ron Garney’s dynamic art and Bill Reinhold’s sharp inks, captures a pivotal moment of tension and betrayal, with Matt Milla’s colors and Cory Petit’s lettering adding depth to the emotional stakes. The cover by Ron Garney perfectly frames the clash of ideals.
