Spectacular Spider-Man (Spider Transformation)

I'm not a Marvel fan, but I love it when Spider-Man turns into a Man-Spider. Unfortunately, that happen rarely (though it's happened twice in the cartoons). In Spectacular Spider-Man 17-20 the transformation gradually happens over the course of four issues.
Here's the start:



Next issue:






Looking good!



Spider-Man encounters the Queen, an insect-human hybrid who had kissed him earlier and triggered his mutation. The Queen is on the hunt for a "husband" and likes what she sees:



The Queen carrys him off. Sadly, we don't see Spider-Man's transformation into this:


Agreed, he's twice as pretty!
Now for the final issue:


The Queen spends some quality time with her new husband, until he gets sick:


The spider  collapses and is pronounced dead. Then this happens:



Yes, he can now shoot spider jizz webs from his hands! Congratulations, but you were prettier with eight eyes. As far as I know, this was the last comic where Spidey got in touch with his inner arachnid. If you know of another one published in the last decade, drop me a line.
