“Web of Death, Part Four: A Time to Die!”

In the climactic finale of "Web of Death," Spider-Man faces off against Doctor Octopus in a showdown that pushes both heroes to their limits—especially with Kaine unexpectedly at the heart of the conflict. Written by Tom DeFalco and brought to life by Bill Sienkiewicz’s dynamic art and Sal Buscema’s sharp pencils, this 1995 issue delivers a pulse-pounding, visually striking chapter in Spider-Man’s saga, with Sienkiewicz handling both inks and cover art, and John Kalisz adding depth through color.
