Description
Spider-Man and the Android Avenger team-up this issue to tackle the Dark Rider! In this issue, Spider-Man, Vision and the Scarlet Witch are captured by the townspeople of Salem. I love how the Vision is transposed through the bridge. To me, the Dark Rider looks a lot like another Marvel villain who appeared a few years later, the Death-Stalker!

1st appearances of Dark Rider, John Proctor, Master Hathorn, Sarah Good, John Burroughs, Betty Parris, Abigail & Tituba. Dr. Doom also appears in this issue.

Check out the hand-colored color guide in the second picture!

Outstanding cover!  So much going on!  Makes you wanna rip open the comic book and read the exciting story within.  (But don't actually rip the comic -- that brings down the value! lol)

Fantastic cover from the best MTU storyline Imho. 

And yes, the villain could be a Death Stalker ante litteram. 

Huge congrats!

I knew this would not remain on sale for long.  Amazing cover from the best MTU run ever.  Hannigan has proven over and over to be a great cover artist. And do I dedect a hint of Romita inks on SM?

At least it's not another Ditko page.  LOL!  Seriously though, perfect Bronze Age example with all the fixings.  Great art, logos, paste ups, glue stains, you name it.  Pretty much everything you would want in a grail from this magical era.  Being a huge Spidey fan, no one was more excited to see a second title starring my favorite webhead.  With a new guest star every month to boot.  When I was a kid, one of the comic shops I went to sold complete runs.  The first two I bought were Kamandi #1-25 and Marvel Team-up #1-25.  Seems like a lifetime ago that comics were 20-25 cents.  Considering what's going on in the world today, it's nice to go back to those days of my youth.  Thanks for the transport and congratulations on this Bronze masterpiece.

I struggled when I saw this cover for sale at the SDCC a couple of years ago.  It is such a dynamic cover, and I have a lot of nostalgia from my childhood with this storyline as the Dark Rider was an imposing villian for my younger self.  One also saw Doom as a hero in this storyline, but he was not on this particular cover.  While I had the money to purchase, I just could not pull the trigger.  Congrats on your lack of hesitation for pulling the trigger.

Big memories on this one from my first few months of collecting.  Although I was the DC guy, my buddy was the Marvel guy and especially loved Spidey.  We read issues others comics so Marvel Team-Up #36-45 were consumed over and over again by both of us.  This was part of perhaps our first multi-arc extended storyline spanning #41-44.  They don't get bigger and better especially when your nine years old!
