In “With Foes Like These…” — Part 5 of the *Avengers Under Siege* crossover — Spidey’s search for Flash Thompson is interrupted when he stumbles into a bank robbery by the unstoppable Titania. Her unusual alliance with the fearsome Absorbing Man signals that the Masters of Evil are tightening their grip on Manhattan, and when the web‑slinger tracks her to LaGuardia Airport, fists and powers clash with explosive intensity. Amidst the chaos, Peter encounters cameos from familiar faces like Mary Jane, Flash Thompson, the Wasp, and the Hobgoblin while facing threats that might have him wishing for full Avengers backup.
Bob Layton’s iconic cover plunges you right into the heart of battle: Spider‑Man, poised in his sleek black costume, dives forward as the muscular Absorbing Man and fiery‑haired Titania rush him head‑on, the airport tarmac slicing the background in stark perspective. The bold fiery red title plate and warm background tones contrast with the cool blue and black of Spidey’s suit and the metallic sheen of Absorbing Man’s form. It feels like a classic blockbuster poster — action‑packed, kinetic, and perfectly framed to emphasize the brutal collision of super‑strength versus spider agility.
This raw NM edition shows crisp cover contrast and vivid linework with minimal wear, ideal for fans completing the *Avengers Under Siege* storyline or spotlighting key ASM character bombshells like the Mongoose. The bold cover makes it an eye‑catching piece for any Spider‑Man run.
