AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #120
by Gerry Conway, Gil Kane, John Romita, and Tom Mortellaro
Spider-Man is in Montreal to fight the Hulk! And it's the last issue before... you know, something happens to Gwen Stacy.
WHAT'S AGED THE BEST?
DUY: Especially as depicted by the MCU, yes, nothing can stop the Hulk.
WHAT'S AGED THE WORST?
BEN: Is this the last time we see Gwen alive?
DUY: This is it. This is seriously the last issue we're going to see Gwen, and it's Gwen crying. Ugh. They did not think this through and I hate it.
BEN: Not to mention the previous storyline was a 3-part retelling of an older story.
NITPICKS
BEN: Is that helicopter made of wood?
DUY: Similarly, this has to be the most solid depiction of water I've seen in a comic.
FAVORITE PANEL
BEN: I love the art, plus they added in a reference to the Distinguished Competition:
DUY: You know I like the whole "filling up a whole panel with someone crouching to emphasize how big they are" thing:
WHO WON THE COMIC?
DUY: I'm assuming the Hulk got a sales boost here, so I guess the Hulk..
BEN: Was this the same time that he fought a certain short Canadian superhero for the first time?
DUY: Not yet, this was about a year before.
BEN: I guess the Hulk spent a lot of time up in Canada. In that case, I’m giving Canada the win here.
BEN: Thank you, Stan Lee and Steve Ditko—
DUY: —for telling us we aren't the only ones.
