Len Wein takes over as writer. Lots of lameness here, but I dig this panel.
And I love when Spider-Man and Mary Jane slow-dance to Kung Fu Fighting.
Wein starts with several small threats that are tied together by Wilson Fisk. Kingpin fixes football in #153 (a crime that frankly seems beneath Spider-Man).
Fisk frees Sandman in #154.
I didn’t understand what the point of #155 was. Some kind of evil computer. Issue #156 has the first appearance of Mirage.
Through it all, there are frequent flashes to a mystery homeless man who craves alcohol. Who could he be? We find out in the last panel of #156…
Oh! Doc Ock is back! And…He looks like shit.
