This story is as close as Spidey ever got to time traveling in the
Silver Age. He didn’t travel himself, but he did meet and battle Kang’s time traveling Spider-Man robot. On top
of that, Don Heck gave us his interpretations of Ditko art taken from the pages of the Amazing Spider-Man
Annual #1. Can you tell which is which?
Spider-Man! Well, much obliged to you, fella! I never knew you were so. . . cooperative!

INDEXER NOTES (SPOILERS!)
Credits—The <a href='https%3A%2F%2Fwww.comics.org%2Fissue%2F18821%2F'>GCD</a> states, “Per Nick Caputo, Kirby pencilled the cover, although Ditko either did rough pencils on the Spider-Man figure or revised Kirby's original figure. Ditko likely touched up the Giant-Man figure as well, with Chic Stone inking the cover. Nick has an examination of the cover at <a href='http%3A%2F%2Fnick-caputo.blogspot.com%2F2012%2F05%2Favengers-11-cover-mystery.html'>his blog: </a>.”
Tags—<a href='tag-3747%5DIron_Man'>tag-3747]Iron Man</a> appears only on the cover, so we have not tagged him in the story.
