Another anthology issue offers three more stories of Spider-Man wearing the black suit which looks terrific in each of the stories presented here. Still new to the suit, in “The Edge of Rage” Spider-Man loses control with Morbius, beating him unconscious, and also later threatening Flash Thompson. We witness his recognition and shame for events but we also see the symbiote’s interest in Peter giving into his darker impulses.

Remember that time Matt Murdock tricked the woman he loved into killing him so he could go fight a literal demon in Hell. I know you’ve got a martyr complex, Daredevil, but yeesh. I didn’t expect to be comparing an issue of Daredevil to Star Trek V: The Final Frontier but that’s where we’re going. Culminating the 12 issue arc of Daredevil and Elektra‘s attempts to take down the Hand, we get Matt sitting in front of a cave contemplating suicide so to set up a Daredevil vs. Devil fight in Hell. Get it? (Who at Marvel thought this was a good idea?)
