Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In Amazing Spider-Man 298-299, Todd MacFarlane takes over as artist, and Venom is creeping around, but which character is Spider-Man facing?

Answer: Chance

First they fight, then they team up. 299, last page, Venom makes his first full appearance.

2. In Spectacular 147, Demogoblin is introduced. What series is this issue a part of?

Answer: Inferno

No 148 was also part of Inferno, titled, 'Night Of The Living Ned!'

3. Spectacular Spider-Man 134-136 features the return of which deadly villain who played a major role earlier in this title, plus Electro?

Answer: Sin-Eater

4. Who does Spider-Man fight for the first time in Amazing 300?

Answer: Venom

Venom's big breakthrough!

5. Who killed the Kingpin's flunky The Arranger in Spectacular 165?

Answer: Knight and Fogg

Kingpin called these two assassin's from England to do his dirty work.

6. Which classic Spider-Man villain did Macfarlane NOT 're-make' in his Amazing Spider-Man run from 298-326?

Answer: Beetle

Prowler was in 'California Schemin'', 304-305, Chameleon was in 307, and Mysterio in 311. I admit, I thought Macfarlane was cool. Too bad he didn't realise that the art is NOT greater than the plot. They should be equal.

7. Web Of Spider-Man 36 featured the first appearance of forgettable characters Phreak and Persuader, but also this close 'pal' of Joe Robertson?

Answer: Tombstone

A very cool villain, mean too. But don't bother with the Spider-Man-Punisher: Family Plot 2 parter. Thumbs down, in my opinion.

8. Who is the menace Spider-Man fights, aside from the Black Fox, in the anniversary issue number 350?

Answer: Doctor Doom

By David Michelinie and Erik Larsen.

9. Who was the main villain in 'The Assassin Nation Plot', Amazing 319-325?

Answer: Red Skull

With Paladin, Silver Sable, Captain America and Sabertooth. By Michelinie and MacFarlane.

10. Which villain(s) did not criss-cross into Spider-Man's way during the 'Acts Of Vengeance'?

Answer: Mr Fear

Graviton in Amazing 326, and, after Spidey went cosmic, Brothers Grimm in Spectacular 159, and Magneto in Amazing 327. Acts Of Vengeance was a good plot idea. Cosmic Spidey made it great! Mr Fear was the villain in Web 63.

11. Because of what threat was Spider-Man granted the Captain Universe powers?

Answer: Tri-Sentinel

And he whooped him, too.

12. Todd MacFarlane had a 14 issue run of 'Spider-Man', which began with green, black, silver, and gold variant covers for issue 1, in which Spider-Man fought what villain?

Answer: Lizard

A 5-part series called 'Torment' which also featured Kraven's girlfriend, Calypso. It also started the artificial inflation of value via alternate covers and limited supplies.

13. Who took the place of Kraven in 'The Return Of The Sinister Six'(Amazing 334-339)?

Answer: Hobgoblin

He doesn't seem like a team player to me.

14. On the cover of Amazing 336, part of 'Return Of The Sinister Six', there is the caption 'Someone dies!' Who is it?

Answer: Nathan Lubensky

Aunt May's boyfriend. Ceasar died 3 issues later.

15. Amazing 341-342, 'This is it! Spidey goes normal!' Who saves the powerless Spider-Man from the Tarantula and Scorpion?

Answer: Black Cat

Spidey goes cosmic, he goes normal, he changes into the Hulk, he goes bi-and tri-monthly, he gets his 4th monthly title, he meets 'Deadly Foes'. It was quite a period of Spider-History!
