Peter Parker the Spectacular Spider-Man #87 (1984): Spidey unmasks

A simple love story issue: Spider-Man tells Black Cat he loves her and unmasks. but she wants the hero not the zero.

Story of my life.

Spider-Man just did a similar thing with Deb Whitman, who believed he was Spider-Man, and when he unmasked, she laughed and realized it was crazy to think the zero could be a hero.

Seems like this could have been fertile ground for character work–why is Peter so eager to unmask? That’s not the way they did comics in the ’80s, though.

Still, in all, good stuff.
