One of my favorite features from Marvel Comics is their What If? series. This past month, Marvel released a What If? issue based on one of my favorite comics, the late-80s "Spiderman vs. Wolverine". This was a truly great comic. The What If? issue takes that original comic as a starting point and posits Spiderman becoming a secret agent.
