UK mini comic edition. Written by Al Milgrom. Art by Al Milgrom and Jim Mooney. In the early 1980s, Marvel Comics joined with Adventure International to work on computer games to go with their comics. As part of that deal, Marvel published this comic book in which each issue would serve as sort of a launching pad to a Questprobe computer game. Each issue featured a different Marvel super hero which would correspond to a new computer game for that hero. This issue features Spider-Man in "Mysterio Times Two" in which Mysterio escapes from prison, takes over the Daily Bugle and demands Spider-Man face him there for a fight to the finish while the Chief Examiner still seeks super hero's powers to help save his planet. Script by Al Milgrom and art by Al Milgrom & Jim Mooney. 28 pages

1st printing. Written by Samuel Sattin. Art and cover by Steenz. This is an inviting introduction to what TTRPGs are, why they matter, and how readers can get involved.
