    "And Men Shall Call Him Octopus!" Story by Bill Mantlo. Art by Rich Buckler and Jim Mooney. The story continues from Amazing Spiderman Annual 13 in which Spider-Man battled Doctor Octopus at a construction site and ripped off one of his mechanical arms. Now Peter Parker takes the leftover arm to Empire State University to study it, but the arm comes alive and escapes! The wall-crawler follows the arm to the East River, where Doc Ock is attempting to steal an atomic submarine. It's a great finishing battle between Spider-Man and Doctor Octopus! (Note: This story takes place when Aunt May was presumed dead between Amazing Spiderman issues 195 and 200.) 48 pages Cover price $0.75.
