- With editor Danny Fingeroth away at the San Diego comic con, assistant editor Bob DeNatale decides to replace artist Al Milgrom with humorist Fred Hembeck for this issue's "important" story; Spidey decides to show the Black Cat where he works and they end up having to save J. Jonah Jameson from the Fly; Spidey decides to take the plunge and reveal his secret identity to the Cat.
Indexer Notes
Although Hembeck is best known for his humorous art, this issue is a "straight" Spidey story.
