Something spilled on the comic and it saturated from the front cover all the way through to the back cover
The Spectacular Spider-Man, Vol. 1 #135 (Marvel Comics, 1988) Direct Edition delivers a pivotal middle chapter of the Sin-Thesis arc, with Spider-Man left wounded in the streets of New York after Electro defeats him in the previous issue.
An unlikely ally arrives—the Sin-Eater—adding a twist as a hostile mob closes in on the injured web-slinger. The storyline also tracks Stan Carter on a local TV show discussing Jean DeWolff, setting up a dramatic moment when Spider-Man interrupts the broadcast and Electro reappears.
Created by Peter David (script) with Sal Buscema handling pencils and inks; the cover is by Sal Buscema. This 32-page issue captures the late-80s Spider-Man era with tight dialogue, dynamic action, and key turns in the Sin-Thesis plot that fans remember.
