Well I'm glad that newer cover was posted as I had never seen it before and thought it was funny.

It just struck me that Spidey's dialog on that 121 cover--which was the first issue I ever bought, by the way!--makes it sound like his spider-sense is straight-up clairvoyance. We all know that it really triggers immediately before an imminent threat, he can't really look at a bunch of pictures and sense that they're going to die soon and he won't be able to save them, right? Of course, covers like these are never meant to be taken literally, and I never have been one to do so, I'm just surprised that it never hit me how wrong this cover copy sounds when you think about it.
(Not to mention that in the comic itself, his spider-sense never told him any such thing; finding that the victim was actually dead came as a complete shock to him.)

Spidey breaking the fourth wall. Like when Flash told you to buy his comic or someone would die.

Wow! A comic with an inaccurate cover?! I don't think that has ever happened before. It must be a valuable collectible!

Great covers, everyone--even a few I haven't seen before, which is always a bonus IMO. james, am I missing something--did you post a cover on page one?
