Overview

“Future-Shock!”

Writer: Bill Mantlo
Artists: Sal Buscema & Mike Eposito

Spidey is riding a time platform and it sends him into the future, 2019 to be precise, where he meets Killraven. They defeat a few tripod ships and Killraven tells Spidey that in 2001 there was an invasion of earth by the martians.

They are then sprayed with a hallucinogen by martian drones and confront their worst fears. In the process they beat up on a few martian drones.

Spidey hops on the time platform.

Rating: 4/10

Not without interest but time travel and Spidey don’t mix.

Favorite Panel:

Best part of this issue was this great double splash page.
