I love your Peanuts dancing observation.
I love this issue. Kraven was a genuinely new kind of supervillain. A cross between Tarzan and a big game hunter. He wasn't power hungry, he didn't want money, he didn't even hate Spider-Man - he simply wanted to hunt him and defeat him-! Awesome idea from Stan, and iconic design from Steve. If you think about it, not only has Stan created more classic superheroes than anyone else, he did more to diversify what a superhero or supervillain could be. A superhero could be a Norse God, or a monster, or a shy teenager. A supervillain could be a big game hunter, or a special effects wizard, or your best friend's dad.
