Issue(s): Marvel Team-Up #24
Cover Date: Aug 74
Title: "Moondog is another name for murder!"
Credits:
Len Wein - Writer
Jim Mooney - Penciler
Sal Trapani - Inker

Review/plot:
Spider-Man meets Brother Voodoo and helps fight a Loa/spirit named Moondog.

This issue starts with Spider-Man desecrating a J. Jonah Jameson billboard, which seems a little out of character.

Not much here. Not doing much to make Brother Voodoo an appealing character, and not a good story generally. I guess it was the first appearance of Brother Voodoo in the larger Marvel universe, though. Can't think of why else this was reprinted as a Marvel Milestone.

Quality Rating: D+

Historical Significance Rating: 1

Chronological Placement Considerations: The MCP has this between Brother Voodoo's appearances in Tales of the Zombie #6 and #10. Spider-Man's appearance is context free, but i've pushed this back a bit in publication time to allow Marvel Team-Up #25 to line up with Daredevil #112.

Comments

The cover to this issue--plus an issue of Man-Thing, and a few others--spurred a nasty comment in the letter column criticizing Marvel for having too many covers with tied-up women with cleavage ready to pop out.
