Step into the heart of classic Marvel storytelling with Marvel Team-Up #98 - Vol. 1 - Spider-Man and Black Widow - Pence Copy - 1980, a dynamic Bronze Age comic that unites two of Marvel’s most iconic figures—Spider-Man and Black Widow—in an edge-of-your-seat adventure filled with espionage, action, and personal stakes. As part of the beloved Marvel Team-Up series, this issue stands out as a fan-favourite pairing of brains, brawn, and unmatched agility.
Set in the gritty, fast-paced Marvel Universe of the 1980s, this story follows Peter Parker, aka Spider-Man, as he becomes entangled in a mission involving covert operations, political tension, and international intrigue. Enter Natasha Romanoff, the mysterious and skilled Black Widow, whose past as a spy collides with the present as a new threat emerges. Their reluctant alliance brings together two heroes with very different worldviews, resulting in a tension-filled, action-heavy narrative that grips from the first panel to the last.
The writing is sharp, with strong dialogue that captures Spider-Man’s trademark wit and Black Widow’s stoic professionalism. The art delivers fluid action sequences, moody shadows, and expressive character moments, bringing the espionage-driven plot to life. This issue serves as both a self-contained thrill ride and an important part of each character’s broader development during the Bronze Age.
This original 1980 pence copy offers additional value for UK collectors and those interested in British-market variants. These editions were distributed in the UK with slightly different price markings and are now increasingly sought after due to their relative scarcity in fine condition.
