The best thing about this issue is that it continued (or started?) the trend of a hero meeting a “Doctor” themed villain in their 5th issue, which led to Byrne’s She-Hulk #5 having her meet Doctor Bong, and she was so annoyed that “the FF and Spidey got Doctor Doom, and I’m stuck with Doctor Bong!” with DB in the background yelling “Hey!”
@hornacek — They’re just that happy to have finally met.
It looks like Spidey and Doom are trying to hug each other but it’s turned into an awkward hug and each one doesn’t know what to do next.
