A new generation of creators crafting character-defining runs changed everything, with new faces donning Iron Man’s armor and slinging Captain America’s shield! Bold makeovers were everywhere — including Spider-Man’s black costume, Storm’s mohawk, Thor’s battle armor, the Hulk’s return to gray, and the transformation of original X-Man Angel into Apocalypse’s metal-winged Horseman of Death! The sensational She-Hulk joined the Fantastic Four, and Peter Parker faced the biggest life-altering event of all: marriage to Mary Jane Watson!
