Not approved by the Comics Code Authority. "In the Grip of the Goblin!" Part 2 of 3. Script by Stan Lee. Pencils by Gil Kane. Inks by Frank Giacoia and John Romita. Cover by John Romita. The fireworks start immediately as the Amazing Spider-Man battles the Green Goblin! And since the web-slinger is always cautious fighting Norman Osborn's alter ego, the goblin wins rounds one -- thanks to his assortment of bizarre weapons! As Peter Parker heads home, he knows the goblin could reveal his secret identity at any moment. But right now Peter has a second problem. His roommate Harry is miffed about Mary Jane...and popping pills left and right! When Peter calls a doctor to get Harry help, someone clad in purple and green shows up first! Oh no, the wall-crawler is caught between a rock and a hard place...with no way out! (Note: This story was reprinted in Marvel Tales #78.) 32 pages. Cover price $0.15.
