This month, Crossover Classic is all about the Mad Titan, or moreover, the epic saga that was the Infinity Gauntlet.

This is one of my favorite Spider-Man issues. Spider-Man dies! At his last moment, en route to Aunt May and Mary Jane for dinner, Spider-Man bites the big one! In death, can he still save someone, and himself? I love the story in this issue, and I love the artwork. I think it's a step better than the last two storylines Todd McFarlane attempted to do in this series. It's a welcome break from his work, and as a stand alone issue, and Infinity Gauntlent tie in, it's awesome. Good stuff!
