Spider-Man: Quality of Life is a limited series that Rucka used to explore the personal side of one of Spider-Man’s classic villains. Rather than a standard superhero brawl, the three issues focus on Dr. Curt Connors (the Lizard) and the human consequences of corporate environmental damage.

Rucka brings his character-driven approach to the superhero genre, creating a story that works as both a Spider-Man comic and a commentary on corporate responsibility. The limited format keeps the story focused and emotionally direct.
