A Parker Love Triangle!

After the hectic pace of previous issues Roger Stern and John Romita slow things down for Spidey a tad in these issues, but Pete's life gets more complicated when a young lady named Amy Powell tries to use him to make Lance Bannon jealous.

Spidey still manages to have a workout against The (Mad) Thinker's android but it's his predicament at the end of the issue which is the highlight. Especially when Mary Jane turns-up!


The focus is still on Pete for issue 243 as well as he tries to sort out his private life and makes the big decision to quit school. Quite a step really as Pete has been in education since the series started. Time to move on.

It was great to see MJ back and the focus on Pete for these couple of issues made a refreshing change of pace.

Rating 8/10
