This was such a great issue when it came out because you legitimately felt that Peter felt that the upcoming battle with Doc Ock could be his final battle and he could die (even though as the reader you knew he wouldn’t really die). The entire issue is just Peter going around and saying good-bye to everyone without letting on that he’s saying good-bye for potentially the last time. There’s no (?) action at all, and yet the tension is so high you never feel bored by the lack of action. It’s sooooo good.
