A Great Conclusion To One Of The Best Spidey Stories Ever!
Part/Round two begins with the hunt in full force, as Firelord races through the city looking for Spider-Man. It's a great tension filled hunt, and when they collide, the tension goes even higher. You can feel the desperation in Spidey as he tries everything he can to beat the much more powerful foe.
The fight and the eventual knockout is one of the most memorable comic fights in history. It was great incorperating the Avengers in the story, and Avengers #258 also showed the Spidey/Firelord thing from the Avengers POV.
There is a breakaway during the fight that is probably my favorite J. Jonah Jameson scene ever, as he's strolling through the Bugle on a Mission to find anything to get Spider-Man with. Spidey was wearing two costumes at the time, and Jonah figures he's up to no good.
Tom Defalco wrote some great Spider-Man during this period, and one wishes that Ron Frenz would have aspired toward this style, and not the blocky and heavy Jack Kirby influenced style that followed. Bob McLeod provides some great inks, as always.
