A Look Back at Amazing Spider-Man #389 (1994)

Welcome back superhero enthusiasts, 1990s arts and culture enthusiasts, Spider-Man fans and comic book collectors! Today we go back to the mid-1990s to examine a small part of the Marvel Comics shared universe through a tale of the Amazing Spider-Man monthly series.

We are finally here! I’m talking about the fourth chapter of the Pursuit storyline featuring a broke-hearted and revenge-obsessed Spider-Man who has been more violent in his search for the Chameleon. It should be noted that his marriage with Mary Jane has turned for the worse as time went on. For my previous retro comic book reviews about the Pursuit storyline, click here, here and here.

With those details laid down, here is a look back at Amazing Spider-Man #389, published in 1994 by Marvel Comics with a story written by David Michelinie and drawn by Mark Bagley.

Early story

The story begins at a very familiar tomb stone. It marked the very spot where Spider-Man was once buried in (refer to Kraven’s Last Hunt). Nearby is the tomb stone referring to the late Kraven the hunter. Moments earlier, Spider-Man discovered the coffin is empty which shocked him. Even though he is burdened with stress fighting the Chameleon, memories of his past encounters with Kraven and the impostors (who posed as his late mother and father) flashed in his mind bringing back pain and anguish.

Spider-Man decides that the time of mourning (dating back to the day he lost his parents when he was little) has to stop and slowly makes his way into Kraven’s mansion. As soon as the door opens, he shouts the Chameleon’s name…

Quality

As the conclusion to the 4-part Pursuit storyline, this comic book is very intense and it is clear to me that the Michelinie-Bagley duo went all-in to pack it with a lot of punch and a startling revelation that really defined the Chameleon.

While previous chapters showed the broken and revenge-hungry Spider-Man getting more violent towards others as he pursued the Chameleon, this comic book has the webslinger fully unhinged within the setting of Kraven’s property. Spider-Man here goes through two so-called death traps before finally encountering the Chameleon in person. As he fought with the tigers and the mechanized set-ups (in the forms of the type of animals hunted by man), Spider-Man was truly determined to kill the master of disguise and he did not hold back with his violent attacks.

Readers will witness the moment when the spectrum of good and evil got twisted as the Chameleon becomes very fearful of Spider-Man who is so unrelenting he looked truly murderous. That said, the famous webslinger himself is a shadow of what he was and there were moments when I felt he was becoming evil. Indeed, the loss of beloved family members combined with the obsession for revenge against the responsible one can turn good people into destructive individuals moving towards evil. At this point of the Pursuit storyline, Michelinie and Bagley took huge creative risks as they worked to make a conclusion that is believable, intriguing and compelling at the same time.

But that is not all. The Chameleon himself got highly developed in this very late stage of the Pursuit storyline. His relationship with Kraven the hunter was revealed with lots of details pointing to their heritage in Russia with clear separate paths – Kraven was privileged while the Chameleon (Dmitri Smerdyakov) had a more painful life. Chameleon’s perception towards Kraven is complicated as he admires him while still harboring a deep resentment towards him. The revelations about the Chameleon’s past and connections with the late hunter really added dramatic value and tension in the story.

Conclusion

Amazing Spider-Man #389 (1994) is indeed a powerful conclusion to the Pursuit storyline. It went as far as showing Spider-Man as the unhinged force of destruction who was determined to really kill the Chameleon and is also succeeded on defining the super villain’s personality with revelations about his Russian heritage with the late Kraven. This comic book also sheds light as to why the Chameleon became proficient with impersonating people and changing his face physically. There will be times when you could feel pity for both Spider-Man and the master of disguise as their respective emotional states and obsessions were powerfully dramatized by the Michelinie-Bagley duo. When it comes to conclusions, the very ending of this comic book is startling and it does not have much to do with the Chameleon.  

Overall, Amazing Spider-Man #389 (1994) is recommended.

A Look Back at Web of Spider-Man #112 (1994)

Anyone who wants to use this article, in part or in whole, needs to secure first my permission and agree to cite me as the source and author.

Welcome back superhero enthusiasts, 1990s culture enthusiasts and comic book collectors! Today we go back to the year 1994 to explore a part of the Marvel Comics shared universe through the Web of Spider-Man monthly series.

In this review, we will be looking at the 3rd chapter of the Pursuit storyline. Spider-Man #45 showed a broken-hearted Spider-Man who starts his quest for vengeance against the Chameleon whom he holds responsible for the deception that happened in Amazing Spider-Man #388. As the webslinger continued his search for answers while hurting a lot of thugs, the Chameleon deceptively hires the service of a contractor to kill Spider-Man. That said, the tension really built-up a lot and we will find out what will happen next.

With those details laid down, here is a look back at Web of Spider-Man #112, published in 1994 by Marvel Comics with a story by Terry Kavanaugh and drawn by Alex Saviuk. This is the 3rd chapter of the Pursuit storyline.

Early story

The story begins deep within New York City. A bus full of prisoners and armed guards makes its way through the rough streets of the city. The guard notices that they are taking a long route and approached the bus driver – the Chameleon in disguise.

The Chameleon is aware that Spider-Man has been tracing him and he puts his sinister plan into action by suddenly hitting the brakes, helping the prisoners overcome the guards, and letting them loose in the city to spark chaos.

Spider-Man swings into action as prisoners get off the bus. Already stressed and obsessed with his search for the Chameleon, he lands on top of the bus and gains access through one of the windows. As the Chameleon fails to maintain his disguise, the webslinger notices him…

Quality

Following the events of the first two chapters, the storytelling in this comic book really turned intense as the stakes were raised. As expected, Spider-Man is doing things the hard way as his obsession for revenge against the Chameleon continues to burn strongly, and his wife Mary Jane is suffering from the loneliness connected with it.

On the raising of stakes in the plot, there is a theme about terrorism here which is dramatized through the Chameleon’s elaborate plan of setting off bombs in several parts of New York. As such, the story has this emphasis on chaos which works well with the webslinger’s state of madness and desperation. Along the way, Spider-Man’s humanity remains as dramatized in key points of the comic book.

In connection with the chaos and terrorism elements, the action here looked grounded with reality and Alex Saviuk’s style made the tale look gritty.

One notable part of this comic book shows the development of a separate sub-plot in Washington, D.C., which reflects developments that took place in Web of Spider-Man #109 to #111. It has a touch of politics and was effectively a distraction from the main story.  

Conclusion

Web of Spider-Man #112 (1994) is easily the most intense and most action-packed chapter of the Pursuit storyline. The themes of chaos and terrorism here easily overshadowed Spider-Man’s obsessive state and yet the creative team succeeded in moving the plot forward. That said, the stage is all set for the conclusion of the Pursuit storyline and I am looking forward to it.

Overall, Web of Spider-Man #112 (1994) is recommended.

A Look Back at Spider-Man #45 (1994)

Anyone who wants to use this article, in part or in whole, needs to secure first my permission and agree to cite me as the source and author. Let it be known that any unauthorized use of this article will constrain the author to pursue the remedies under R.A.

Welcome back superhero enthusiasts, 1990s culture enthusiasts, Spider-Man fans and comic book collectors! Today we go back to the mid-1990s and to explore a part of the Marvel Comics shared universe through a tale of the Spider-Man monthly series.

As revealed in Amazing Spider-Man #388, Richard and Mary Parker – who spent some time living with Peter Parker’s family after suddenly emerging from nowhere – were not Peter’s parents but androids designed to look, act and feel human. They were life model decoys (LFDs) programmed infiltrate Peter’s life until they learn Spider-Man’s true identity. As programmed, they reported to their master the Chameleon. Just seconds before Richard revealed the secret identity, Spider-Man suddenly interfered and this led to a series of violent acts.

With those details laid down, here is a look back at Spider-Man #45, published in 1994 by Marvel Comics with a story written by Howard Mackie and drawn by the late Tom Lyle. This is the first chapter of the Pursuit storyline.

Early story

The story begins moments after the huge conflict that happened. A very broken-hearted Spider-Man realized that “Mary” and “Richard” were impostors and his actual parents have long been gone. He is also concerned about how his Aunt May will handle the truth about Richard and Mary. Deep inside him, a desire for vengeance against the Chameleon is growing.

As he swings from one building to another in New York City, Peter Parker begins to realize that his role as Spider-Man is turning into a farce. He begins his obsession of hunting down the Chameleon and stopping him until he keeps him out of his life for good…

Quality

To make things clear to everyone, this tale does not have the long-running friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. Instead, we have the iconic webslinger who is deeply hurt and the pain he carries motivates him to pursue the Chameleon (who is responsible for reviving the deep pain Peter felt after his parents died). It is clearly a pursuit for vengeance and the writing by Howard Mackie is very believable.

That said, readers will not only see Peter Parker wanting vengeance but also his dark side emerge. Carrying over the tragedy that happened in Amazing Spider-Man #388, Mackie and Lyle precisely crafted a story that had a very dramatic and radically different Peter Parker. Peter even shouts at his wife Mary Jane and struggles with revealing the details of the tragedy to his beloved Aunt May. When he goes out as Spider-Man to find answers, he approaches crooks aggressively and with more violence than before. In short, Spider-Man here lacks restraint and really looks like he could become a public menace.

That said, the portrayal of a very broken Peter Parker here can be alienating even to long-time Spider-Man fans.

Along the way, the Mackie-Lyle duo managed to develop the Chameleon not only as Spider-Man’s target but also as his most cunning and very diabolical enemy yet. The Chameleon (first appearance in 1963’s Amazing Spider-Man #1) is very prominently shown here which is quite meaningful because he is the very first super villain to encounter the webslinger. The long-time villain is very organized and has set up a trap for Spider-Man. The Chameleon also has his own obsession versus Spider-Man and his personal connection with Kraven the Hunter has a lot of depth to the story. As such, there are common elements that the webslinger and the evil master of disguise share.

Conclusion

Spider-Man #45 (1994) is clearly a very engaging read even though its concept of Spider-Man wanting vengeance can be a turnoff to some readers. For one thing, the script Howard Mackie wrote has a lot of depth and Tom Lyle brought it to life with a fine art style. Having seen the 1989 movie Licence to Kill, I noticed the similarities Spider-Man has with Timothy Dalton’s James Bond when it comes to executing a private vendetta. That said, I enjoyed what was presented in this comic book. Indeed, this tale was published at a time when the dynamics of superhero storytelling in the 1990s changed dramatically moving towards tragedy, disaster and death. It is clearly a product of its time and anyone who wants to read a dark and gritty Spider-Man portrayal should go for this. As such, I am convinced to read on with the Pursuit storyline.

Overall, Spider-Man #45 (1994) is recommended.

A Look Back at Amazing Spider-Man #388 (1994)

Disclaimer: This is my original work with details sourced from reading the comic book and doing personal research. Anyone who wants to use this article, in part or in whole, needs to secure first my permission and agree to cite me as the source and author. Let it be known that any unauthorized use of this article will constrain the author to pursue the remedies under R.A.

Welcome back superhero enthusiasts, 1990s arts and culture enthusiasts, Spider-Man fans and comic book collectors! Today we go back to the mid-1990s to examine a small part of the Marvel Comics shared universe through a tale of the Amazing Spider-Man monthly series.

During the height of the 30th anniversary celebration of Spider-Man in 1992, Peter Parker’s long-lost parents Richard and Mary Parker suddenly returned and their presence really altered the hero’s view of life, his marriage with Mary Jane and their family as a whole. As time passed, Peter’s aunt May became suspicious about Richard and Mary (note: scenes related to this were included in Amazing Spider-Man #386 and #387) and she went as far as hiring someone to investigate them from a distance.

With those details laid down, here is a look back at Amazing Spider-Man #388, published in 1994 by Marvel Comics with a story written by David Michelinie and drawn by Mark Bagley.

Early story

The story begins with the Vulture being upset that the youth-restoration effects he had using the juvenator machine were only temporary. As the Vulture makes a move to threaten the lady doctor who help him, the Chameleon suddenly emerged from her in front of him.

Elsewhere, Peter Parker shared with Mary Jane that he recently revealed to his parents that he is Spider-Man. After a brief chat with her, Parker leaves their home as Spider-Man to visit his aunt who has been suspicious about Richard and Mary Parker…

Quality

This particular tale is a tragedy which the cover art by Mark Bagley clearly showed. Beyond the cover, there is a lot more weight on the plot (which was nicely structured by Michelinie), the characters and tragedy itself.

Without spoiling plot details, I can say that the first half of the comic book has Spider-Man doing detective work and also doing the civilized approach of keeping the family together. Peter Parker’s care and concern for his aunt were naturally dramatize resulting in a human touch that should be seen. Along the way, the conspiracy was built-up gradually and the big revelation for Spider-Man (note: the truth about Richard and Mary Parker was revealed to readers long before Spider-Man learned about it) at the mid-point of the story really turned out powerful.

Even the Chameleon’s presence here is rather light, his acts of evil and diabolical agenda were powerfully portrayed. In fact, the Chameleon used his immense power of disguise that set off the disturbing events that happened in issues #386 and #387, and such revelations were integrated convincingly in this very comic book. What I found impressive was Chameleon’s ability on connecting details linking Peter Parker with Spider-Man. The Chameleon is clearly very intelligent and cunning, and this makes him a more formidable enemy for Spider-Man.

The 2nd half of the main story is where the action really got ramped up by many notches. The action is violent and intense, and yet the Michelinie-Bagley duo managed to insert twists and notable character moments that really added power to the tragedy. This is indeed a very compelling read and it will make you think deeply about how much emotional pain Spider-Man could absorb.

This comic book also has two short stories. The first one (drawn by Ron Lim) was set in the past showing Eddie Brock who just bonded with the alien costume. While the Venom-focused short story was designed to add depth to past events in Amazing Spider-Man comic books, it ultimately felt more like a filler than a substantial piece. Only die-hard Venom fans will enjoy it.

The second short story featuring Cardiac and Chance is completely forgettable and unnecessary.

Conclusion

Amazing Spider-Man #388 (1994) tells a really tragic tale with a purpose behind it. Historically speaking, this comic book made some Spider-Man fans angry and feeling very betrayed as they believed that the 1992 return of Peter Parker’s parents marked the new age in Spider-Man storytelling. On the iconic superhero himself, this tale marked the start of a so-called dark age in which Peter Parker got emotionally broken and his life got turned upside-down. To be clear, this comic book is not a tragedy done merely for the sake of doing a tragedy…it was a creative execution to alter the status quo of Spider-Man storytelling of the era. As such, what David Michelinie and Mark Bagley did here was not only daring but also a huge risk that turned out really powerful. This tale is so significant, Marvel Comics went ahead doing an alternate version with What If #61.

Overall, Amazing Spider-Man #388 (1994) is recommended.

A Look Back at Amazing Spider-Man #293 (1987)

Welcome back superhero enthusiasts, 1980s arts and culture enthusiasts, Marvel Comics fans and comic book collectors! Today we go back to the year 1987 to examine a small part of the Marvel Comics shared universe through a tale of the Amazing Spider-Man monthly series.

For this particular review, we will explore the 2nd chapter of classic storyline Kraven’s Last Hunt. The storyline started in Web of Spider-Man #31 (read my retro review by clicking here) and creators J. M. DeMatteis and Mike Zeck crafted it to last six chapters.

With those details laid down, here is a look back at Amazing Spider-Man #293, published in 1987 by Marvel Comics with a story written by J. M. DeMatteis and drawn by Mike Zeck.

Early story

The story begins on a rainy night as a tall figure wearing a black costume and mask stands over the grave stone that read “Here lies Spider-Man slain by the Hunter.” The figure takes off his mask revealing Kraven who delightfully laughs believing he has achieved greatness by defeating Spider-Man, burying him and taking over his identity.

Elsewhere in New York City, a woman struggles with walking down the sidewalk during the rain. As a rat runs near her, she loses her balance and falls on the road. Suddenly, a manhole near her opens revealing the hand of an unseen creature which pulls the lady down to the sewer. Moments later, she finds herself surrounded with rats and toxic materials. Slowly, the Vermin approaches her…

Quality

Considering what happened in Web of Spider-Man #31, it is not a spoiler to point out that the iconic Spider-Man is not really present in this very comic book. That being said, writer J. M. DeMatteis shifted the spotlight on Kraven – now in a Spider-Man costume and being the webslinger we know – while leaving some of it for Mary Jane Parker and Vermin.

Following what was established in the first chapter of Kraven’s Last Hunt, Kraven here continues with his obsession over his destiny while remembering lessons he learned not only from his personal past but also the legacy he inherited from his family. In his other obsession of becoming Spider-Man, Kraven went to the extreme being with countless spiders, consuming green liquid believing that spiderness will come into him, and more. Some may perceive him as a mad man while others might see him being mystical somewhat.

The DeMatteis-Zeck duo excelled in developing Mary Jane in this story as she feels uneasy over her husband’s absence. She really feels the weight of inconveniences and loneliness that come being married to a superhero who is far away doing something or being captured by a capable enemy. Mary Jane’s personality here shows signs of fragility too.

Vermin – the rat-like monster – is portrayed as an eater of human beings who turns out to be afraid of Spider-Man and he still remembers his past conflict not only with him ut also with Captain America. Vermin is a tragic character and the presence of rats in different parts of the story suggest that his presence in the storyline will only grow stronger. Some readers might find Vermin an abomination while there might be others who could get sympathetic towards him.

The plot itself has a strong structure and builds up nicely on what was established in the first chapter of this storyline. This time around, Kraven becomes Spider-Man and how he is perceived by others – who do not know the truth that Peter Parker is temporarily gone – is an emerging theme of the storyline.

Conclusion

Filled with gritty darkness, drama and suspense, Amazing Spider-Man #293 (1987) is an engaging 2nd chapter of the Kraven’s Last Hunt storyline. Even though Spider-Man is not present here, the DeMatteis-Zeck duo succeeded in making the tale compelling to read from start to finish. What they did to develop Mary Jane and Vermin added depth not only to this comic book but to the storyline as well. Right now, I am convinced to read the next chapter of this storyline.

Overall, Amazing Spider-Man #293 (1987) is highly recommended.
