Spectacular Spider-Man #21 (2005)

Last story had Peter gain organic webs and insect-communication powers.  This issue is, thankfully, a breather from all that.  It’s Thing’s floating poker game.

A bunch of heroes, including Spider-Man, are all playing a charity game when Kingpin arrives and offers to stake each player for $50K.  His ask: If he wins, he gets all the money and will buy a yach and call it Heroes’ Folly.  If any of them win, they can donate the proceeds to charity.

Spidey wins.

A nice, light-hearted break from an increasingly heavy-and-dark Spider-Man series.
