Stephen King - Cujo

" CUJO "

Cujo (1981) es una novela de terror psicológico por Stephen King. La novela ganó el Premio British Fantasy en 1982, y fue hecha película en 1983.

La historia se enfoca en la familia Trenton: Vic, un diseñador de publicidad, su esposa, Donna, y su hijo de cuatro años, Tad. Los últimos son aterrorizados por Cujo, un San Bernardo rabioso. El relato tiene lugar en la ciudad ficticia de Castle Rock, Maine, y se entremezcla con las vidas residentes de allí. No hay capítulos oficiales, sino que hay pasajes, que indican cuando el autor alterna a otro punto de vista.

Cujo también hace referencia a la novela anterior de King, La zona muerta, en varias ocasiones. Por ejemplo, el asesino en serie Frank Dodd ahora ha logrado un estado de coco en Castle Rock.

El nombre de Cujo está basado en el alias de Willie Wolfe, uno de los hombres responsables por orquestar el secuestro y adoctrinamiento de Patty Hearts en el Ejército Simbionés de Liberación.

Stephen King menciona a Cujo en Mientras escribo, refiriéndose a la novela que "apenas recuerda haberla escrito". El libro fue escrito durante un período en que King bebía demasiado. Un poco con nostalgia, King dijo que le gusta el libro y que desea poder recordar las partes buenas mientras las escribía en una hoja. Cujo también se menciona en The Body, una historia corta en Different Seasons, cuando el autor utiliza la historia de Cujo en una comparación de tiempos.

Tiempo después King hizo referencia a los perros en su novela de 1983 Cementerio

" ¡STEGRON ATACA LA CIUDAD! "

Spider-Man's Spider sense brings him to a hidden laboratory where he tangles with an unknown foe (which later turns out to be Stegron). In pursuit of this mysterious foe two S.H.I.E.L.D agents cross his path but to avoid hurting them and to escape he covers them in webbing. Meanwhile at Curtis Connors place, Curt explains to his wife Martha that he is feeling the after effects of the explosion of a generator which saved Spider-Man's life. Suddenly Stegron the Dinosaur Man enters and kidnaps Billy and then leaves instructions for Curt to follow else he will kill Billy. When Peter confronts Flash about how he is trying to go out with Mary Jane, Flash quickly realizes his mistake and tells Peter that it's ok and that he understands that Peter and Mary Jane are a couple . Meanwhile in a science laboratory at Empire State University J.Jonah Jameson and Marla Madison are busy working on the control unit to the new Spider-Slayer. 

Later Peter and Mary Jane meet up and discuss their relationship, and with no idea where they're going to take things decide to let things work themselves out. While at the Connors home, Curt talks his wife out of calling the police, and realizes that he's turning into the Lizard once more, and fights off the change. 

Peter and Mary Jane end up at Museum of Natural History where they are watching a laser show when suddenly the power goes out. Peter goes into investigate, changing into Spider-Man and finding that Stegron is there. Using the device he has stolen, he's reanimated the bones of dinosaurs that are on display. After a brief fight with the dinosaur bones, Spider-Man ends up tangling with Stegron one-on-one. The fight ends with Stegron as the victor when he causes part of the roof to collapse on the wall-crawler. When Spider-Man finally gets free, he finds that Stegron and his reanimated dinosaur bones have disappeared without a trace. And back at the home of Curt Connors, Curt cannot resist the change any longer and turns into the Lizard. With the Lizard persona in full control, the creature only has one goal: Destroy Strgron.

" ¡LA GUERRA DE LOS HOMBRE-LAGARTOS! "

Continued from last issue... Following his defeat at the hands of Stegron the Dinosaur Man, Spider-Man decides to go and seek the help of Curt Connors due to his expertise with lizards. However, Spider-Man arrives just as Connors had finished transforming into the Lizard once more and was on it's way out to attack Stegron itself. Spider-Man briefly tangles with the Lizard, who manages to escape. Going back into the Connors apartment, Spider-Man learns from Martha Connors of the situation and that Stegron has her son Billy hostage. Spider-Man vows to Martha that he will save Billy and restore Curt to normal once more. 

While at ESU, J. Jonah Jameson pays a visit to Marla Madison, who unveils her own take on the Spider-Slayer robots. Peter's friends have all met at the apartment of Flash Thompson and Harry Osborn for Christmas cheer, Peter calls in and tells Mary Jane that he won't be able to make it out. After getting off the phone with Peter, Mary Jane and the others are told by Harry and Liz Allan that they are going to get married. 

At the hide out of Stegron, the dinosaur man shows to Billy Connors that his revitalization ray is now fully operational and uses it to restore the dinosaur bones back to real living dinosaurs. He's then attacked by the Lizard, which causes the dinosaurs to break loose and flee into the city. Web-slinging around the city trying to find his foes, Spider-Man finds the dinosaurs and easily defeats them. He then tracks their trail of destruction back to Stegron's hideout, where he battles both Stegron and the Lizard. Spider-Man incapacitates the Lizard with a chemically treated webbing which restores the Lizard back to his human form. 

Stegron uses this as his chance to flee with Billy as his prisoner, and he takes control of the dinosaurs again. Spider-Man goes after the two of them, leaving Curt behind to try and figure out how to make Stegron's device work in reverse. Spider-Man manages to rescue Billy and Connor's work on the device allows him to change the dinosaurs back to harmless bones. Stegron manages to escape, however, Spider-Man chases after him. Succumbing to the cold, Stegron is about to go back into a state of suspended animation when he falls into a frozen river and seemingly perishes. Unable to find a trace of Stegron, Spider-Man gives up his search. 

On Christmas Day, all is well and the Connors family has been reunited for the holidays, Spider-Man decides to leave the Connors a Christmas gift before departing.
