The Spectacular Spider-Man #44 [Newsstand]-Very Fine (7.5 – 9)

"The Vengeance Gambit!" Part 1 of 2. Since the Kingpin retired from organized crime in Amazing Spider-Man 197, various ganglords have tried to take control of New York's mobs. But now one of the web-slinger's old foes makes his own push to be the top crime boss in Manhattan! What's his strategy? Simple, kill the other candidates for the job...and perhaps even the score with the wall-crawler along the way! Cameo appearance by the Vulture.
