‘Spiderman Night Fever’ — “Peter Parker, the Spectacular Spider-Man”

“Death Dance of the Hypno-Hustler”

In “Peter Park­er, the Spec­tac­u­lar Spder-Man” # 24 (Novem­ber, 1978) the Hyp­no-Hus­tler is out to score big, and the man­age­ment and the audi­ence at the Beyond For­ev­er Dis­co are just the first to hear and feel the pow­er of mes­mer­iz­ing music. Unfor­tu­nate­ly for him, Spi­der-Man is in the audi­ence, and he has expe­ri­ence in fight­ing mind-con­trol­ling foes before. He has very lit­tle trou­ble against a rook­ie like the Hypno-Hustler.
