Nella prima storia pubblicata in questo numero appare per la prima volta in assoluto il personaggio di Frank Castle alias il PUNITORE
Non bastava Charles Bronson con le sue brame notturne di morte che ci si è messa pure la marvel con l'ennesimo stragista seriale a praticare indisturbato l'esercizio esclusivo e privilegiato della giustizia arbitraria e sommaria, intransigente ed implacabile emulo di Custer e Schwarzkopf che interpreta ed amministra il codice di procedura penale in proprio ed in solipsisti, con rigida parzialità e senza contraddittorio, emettendo soggettivamente i drastici verdetti ed applicando personalmente le severe sentenze, fomentando anche lo smanioso fanatismo di numerosi seguaci che si sarebbero successivamente ispirati a lui inasprendo e radicalizzando ancor più il modus operandi, con i massacri di Columbine, Virginia Tech, Sandy Hook e Texas Chainsaw in america ed in Italia le retate di Di Pietro e del pool di mani pulite

Synopsis
A new costumed criminal known as the Jackal has appeared and has hired the Punisher -- a costumed vigilante that loves death -- to destroy Spider-Man.
The wall-crawler, meanwhile, is web-slinging through the city; he stops to take some pictures of a robbery and busts it up as well. He takes the photos to the Bugle, where J. Jonah Jameson has a fit that Parker has not been able to get any photos of the Punisher, and that all the competition is snapping up photos of him in action.
Peter leaves and changes back to Spider-Man, and soon finds himself attacked by the Punisher, who thinks that Spider-Man is a common crook just like everyone else he kills.
The vigilante doesn't have much of an upper hand against Spider-Man, and the Jackal (hiding near the battle) decides to strike out.
When his claws rake the back of Spider-Man's head, the Punisher calls the Jackal on his "unjust" methods of killing Spider-Man. The wall-crawler manages to get away when he stumbles off the edge of the building they are fighting on, gain control, and swing away. When the Jackal and Punisher depart, Spider-Man returns to the scene and collects the Punisher's weapon that was left behind and sees that it was made by Reiss Armories.
As Spider-Man returns to his apartment, as Peter Parker, he mends his costume, unaware that Harry Osborn is listening and suspects that Peter may know that he's decided to become the Green Goblin. While at ESU, Miles Warren has sought out Mary Jane Watson to see if she can pass along an apology to Peter over their brief run-in while he was trying to get help for her when the Vulture had captured her.
At the secret hideout of the Jackal, the Punisher lashes out at the Jackal over their methods of elimination. The Punisher leaves to go the Mechanic, his gun supplier, to resupply.
This brings him to Reiss Armories, where he finds Spider-Man, who just stumbled upon the Mechanic's dead body. Thinking that the wall-crawler had killed the Mechanic, the Punisher attacks him.
During their fight, Spider-Man manages to get the upper hand and bind the Punisher. He then makes the vigilante see that the Jackal's trademark clawings were the cause of the Mechanic's death.
Realizing that the Jackal had been manipulating him to do his dirty work and then intended to frame him for murder, the Punisher vows to get revenge against the Jackal and storms out. When Spider-Man hears police sirens he leaves as well. The Jackal, watching on, vows that he will eventually destroy Spider-Man.
Notes
- The Punisher makes here his first appearance.
- Spider-Man recounts his current losses and troubles. They are as follows:
- The death of his girlfriend Gwen Stacy, who died during a battle against the Green Goblin in Amazing Spider-Man #121 (in Italy in URC #133).
- The Green Goblin was seemingly killed in battle shortly thereafter in the following issue. However, Norman survived as explained in Osborn Journal #1 (in Italy in URDL #30). Norman resurfaces in Amazing Spider-Man #412 (in Italy in URMI #211).
- Nobody knows that the Green Goblin and Norman Osborn are the same person because of his son, Harry, recovered his costume in Amazing Spider-Man #123 (in Italy in URC #135), a fact that was revealed in Amazing Spider-Man #126 (in Italy in URC #138). Public knowledge of Osborn's connection to the Green Goblin is not revealed until Spider-Man: Legacy of Evil #1 (in Italy in WIZ #10).
- The newspaper coverage about the Punisher are details of events from Punisher Year One #1–4 (in Italy in PUNISH-MISS.SUICIDA #1/6).
- Spider-Man mentions building his Spider-Mobile with the Human Torch. This has been an ongoing project between Amazing Spider-Man #126–128 (in Italy in URC #138/140). The vehicle is finally completed in Amazing Spider-Man #130 (in Italy in URC #150).
- Peter Parker worries about a notice he and Harry got from their landlord about outstanding rent. That happened in Amazing Spider-Man #127 (in Italy in URC #139). In that same issue, Peter had his talk with Professor Warren about his grades that is mentioned in this story.

Synopsis
While out on patrol, Spider-Man spies some crooks popping out of a manhole with the intent of robbing a sky scraper, Spider-Man stops them. When one of the captured crook tries to tell Spider-Man that he's hired by Hammerhead, a device in his head kills him when he tries to utter his employers name. Hammerhead, meanwhile has just returned to New York after his sabbatical in Europe. While offloading on the pier, he is greeted by the Jackal, who goads Hammerhead into wanting to get revenge against Spider-Man and Dr. Octopus (hoping that the villain will play in his hands.)
At the Baxter Building, Spider-Man pays a visit to the Human Torch, who unveils the completed Spider-Mobile.
The two take it out on a test drive, and test out all of the vehicles abilities (which mimic that of Spider-Man's own spider-powers including ties that allow it to scale walls, and web-shooters.)
However, things go awry when the Torch soon learns that Spider-Man has no drivers license and up to this point has never driven a car before.
As this goes on, Dr. Octopus -- fresh out of prison -- watches the spectacle amusingly before traveling to the roof of the Pan-Am building to take a helicopter ride to Westchester. Spider-Man meanwhile has returned back to his apartment and changed back to Peter Parker where he gets a call from his Aunt May who is checking in.
However, their conversation is cut short when Mary Jane arrives earlier than planned and he has to let her go.
A few days later, when Hammerhead's men attack another building with special jet packs, Spider-Man tries to stop them in his new Spider-Mobile.
Spider-Man doesn't get a chance to read the letter until after he shows up for Ned Leed's Christmas party. Peter departs after Mary Jane tries to get a kiss from him under the mistletoe, prompting Peter (who's not ready for romance so soon after Gwen's death) to leave. Reading the contents of the envelope, Peter realizes what Dr. Octopus has been so interest in Aunt May for.
l' impenitente Dr. Octopus non si accontenta più di fare il cascamorto ma addirittura porta fino ai piedi dell'altare una Zia May più inebetita del solito, perchè lei è all' antica e altrimenti mica gliela dà

Synopsis
Rushing to the estate of Dr. Octopus, Spider-Man arrives just in time to see that his arch-nemesis is about to be married to his Aunt May. Before Spider-Man can react, Hammerhead and his goons bust in on the marriage with guns blazing.
Octopus fights off some of Hammerhead's men, and manages to make an escape with Aunt May to the roof.
There Spider-Man tries to stop Octopus from getting away, and is knocked out, Octopus then makes his escape with May in a helicopter.
Witnessing this, Hammerhead and his men decide to follow after Octopus in the helicopter they arrived in themselves.
Spider-Man, reviving from his blow from Dr. Octopus secretly hitches a ride aboard Hammerhead's copter.
While back at Ned Leed's Christmas party, Mary Jane has realized that Peter had ditched her, and Ned and Betty Brant point out that Peter seems to be adjusting to her attention pretty well in spite of the fact that Gwen recently died.
Mary Jane feigns any desire to be in a relationship, and leave the couple, and Joe puts in his two cents to them about Peter being stable enough to make his own decisions.
While high in the air, Hammerhead's helicopter follows Doc Oct's into Canadian air space. There they are led to an island off the coast of Canada to a nuclear facility which has been inherited by Aunt May following the death of a relative (hence why Octopus was interested in marrying her).
With both crafts landing down, another fight between Dr. Octopus and Hammerhead begins.
With bullets flying, the shock is too much for Aunt May who passes out. After a brief fight with Dr. Octopus, Spider-Man grabs his unconscious Aunt May and escapes in an airplane in a nearby hanger.
Meanwhile, Dr. Octopus enters the building and is mortified when he learns the facilities primary function is a nuclear breeder. When Hammerhead bursts in, Octopus warns Hammerhead that the slightest vibration can cause a violent explosion. Hammerhead doesn't heed this warning and charges at Dr. Octopus.
Octavius dodges the attack, causing Hammerhead to ram into the control panel of the breeder. This causes the very type of explosion that Dr. Octopus warned them of. Spider-Man manages to fly out of the explosions reach just in the neck of time.
Aunt May soon revives, but before Spider-Man can explain anything to her, the fact that she's sharing an airplane with Spider-Man causes her to pass out again. While back in New York, Mary Jane decides it's time to leave the part because she figures that Peter is not coming back. When Betty tries to get her to talk about how she feels about Peter, she tells him that she can't bring herself to love Peter, and that she cares about him too much to allow herself to do that. When Betty presses for more of an explanation, she tells her to leave it for another day and departs.

Synopsis
While out on patrol, Spider-Man happens upon an alleyway mugging. The wall-crawler quickly sends the muggers packing. When he checks on their intended victim, the elderly man puts Spider-Man under a hypnotic spell. The man in question turns out to be the sorcerer known as Xandu, who had fought Spider-Man in the past.
He orders his hypnotic slave to retrieve the Crystal of Kadavus which is being kept in the Sanctum Sanctorum of Doctor Strange. He intends to use the mystical artifact to make himself the ruler of the cosmos. Gloating at the irony of using one of his foes to attack the other, Xandu teleports Spider-Man away so he can complete his task.
At that moment, from his home in Greenwich Village, Doctor Strange has just finished reading some of the writings of the Ancient One and has decided to meditate upon it. As he enters his meditations, Spider-Man appears around the corner.
Xandu mentally directs the wall-crawler to do his bidding, but this mind control has also affected the hero's motor skills and he gives himself away by knocking over a metal urn. Hearing the crash, Doctor Strange thinks it is his servant Wong, but when he gets no reply he gets up to investigate. When Doctor Strange happens upon the web-slinger, Xandu clouds Spider-Man's perceptions to make it look as though Strange is attacking him. This leads to a struggle between the two, however, Doctor Strange has to pull his mystical punches as he does not wish to harm Spider-Man.
