Amazing Spider-Man #308 (November 1988)
by themimegogo
Mary Jane has been kidnapped, and Peter Parker fears that this happened because his secret identiy has been compromised.
The issue focuses on his desperate and frantic search for her, strong arming any lead he could find to anyone who could be trying to get to Spider-Man through her abduction.
This leads him straight to one of Taskmaster's secret training facilities. Unfortunately for him, Taskmaster has absolutely nothing to do with her disappearance, and even sadder, Mary Jane is literally right under his nose - trapped in a condo unit located directly one floor below his place.
This is my first time to actually read a Todd McFarlane drawn comic book as an adult - for those of you who don't know, McFarlane was quite a thing in the 90's when he left Marvel to create one of the most popular dark/gritty comic book characters of the Time - Spawn.
It was very interesting to see Taskmaster drawn with a dynamic almost living cape - a look that Spawn is iconically known for.
The issue itself had several comedic moments despite the dark tone they were trying to go for. I also felt like the events of this issue was something that could have been settled better had Tasky just talked it out with Spider - Man, since he was practically just minding his own business.
