    I was recently reading through a TPB that had this particular issue in it, and it just really hit hard all of a sudden. What really did it for me was when Spider-Man finds a kid sitting among the wreckage somewhere and when he tells the kid he should probably be somewhere safer, the kid says that he's waiting for his daddy who was just going to pick something up out of a nearby building, and then before the kid can even finish saying this, some police officers come carrying a body out and the kid jst screams, "DADDY!" as Spider-Man tries to hold him back........

    This account of mine doesn't even come close to doing this scene justice, but just writing this has already managed to bring a tear to my eye again... It was truly a phenomenal issue on a level that I can barely describe. I can barely think about it with a dry eye now...

    I understand there have been a few comics that have choked me up too.

    This was such a good issue. Just seeing the child scream for his father just left me feeling for the child. It was truly one of them issues I will rember forever.
