Publisher’s description

So, have you ever noticed that Peter Parker never really grows facial hair? That’s just this side of weird, right? We felt sorry for the wall–crawler, so we went and got him a special guest star, THE INVINCIBLE IRON MAN!!!!!! Because I think we can all agree that Tony Stark’s got the sweetest facial hair in all of Marvel Comics. Oh! And they fight a Nazi robot. PLUS…Spidey vs. Iceman! Spider-Man J! And a TON of classic Spidey stories! This issue also reprints Venom: Lethal Protector #2.
