The Amazing Spider-Man Annual #18
"The Scorpion Takes A Bride! (But Not The Way You Think!)"
Script by Stan Lee
Plot by Tom DeFalco
Breakdowns by Ron Frenz
Finishes by Bob Layton and Jackson Guice

Ah, yes. 1984. The simple days. Only three Spidey titles to collect: Amazing Spider-Man, Spectacular Spider-Man, and Marvel Team-Up. Remember when a comic book could actually be fun to read? "What happened to the good ol' days when I only hadda chase after souped-up sedans?" laments Spidey as he chases down some bank robbers escaping by helicopter.

The main thrust behind this story is that J. Jonah Jameson has finally decided to tie the knot with his girlfriend Marla Madison. And of course, Spidey has to drop by and congratulate JJJ in his own unique and infuriating way...

As the wedding approaches, JJJ tries to re-connect with his son, John. Unfortunately, it back fires on him as John isn't emotionally ready to handle his old man getting married, and JJJ's visit enrages Mac Gargan prompting him to escape. And to make matters worse, the Scorpion captures John Jameson and the news ruins Jameson's staff party.

Eager for revenge, Gargan fights his way through Jameson's police protection, but is intercepted by Spidey. Marla gets caught in the middle and Spidey's kept more than busy keeping her away from the Scorpion.

Frenz's breakdown really give this issue a lovely Ditko feel and the finishes by Layton and Guice add a nice layer of polish.

It's a fun, self-contained tale that's Stan Lee's farewell fitting farewell to Jameson's character.

Here's an unused cover for Amazing Spider-Man #284
By Tom Morgan, Ron Frenz, and Joe Rubinstein.

The story behind the unused cover is explained here:
http://www.romitaman.com/PrivateGalleryPiece.asp?Piece=18718&ArtistId=1244

"This nice cover features the Black Costume Amazing Spider-Man on the ground as he is defeated and looked down upon by several key Spider-man foes: Hammerhead; Rose; Jack O' Lantern and The Arranger! AFTER this cover art was drawn.... It was decided by editors that THE HOBGOBLIN should be the main focus of the cover, so they statted this original cover art and moved Hammerhead farther to the right on the cover and covered Spider-Man's image up with a Ron Frenz drawn image of the Hobgoblin! The entire bottom scene of villains, AND Rose / Jack O' Lantern with back left thugs are in their EXACT position on the published cover. The Arranger which was drawn nicely on this cover...you can only see his right arm on the comic book image as his image was moved too far to the right on the stat cover to be seen, but he DID make his full appearance on this great cover! More than likely....There is a single Published Hobgoblin drawing floating around somewhere that would be part of this cover.....But in his place....having a full body image DRAWN image of SPIDER-MAN in his BLACK COSTUME is not too bad to have on an Amazing Spider-Man cover. Just a great cover! "
