    Direct Edition. "Now Strikes the Hobgoblin!" Second appearance of the Hobgoblin. Script by Roger Stern. Art by John Romita Jr. (breakdowns) and Frank Giacoia (finishes). Cover by John Romita Jr. and Al Milgrom. It's the first fight between the Hobgoblin and the Amazing Spider-Man! And the all-out action begins after the web-slinger bumps into the new goblin at one of Norman Osborn's old hideouts! Spidey is very familiar with the goblin's bag of tricks! But the overmatched Hobgoblin doesn't have any idea about the wall-crawler's speed, strength, and agility! Is the Hobgoblin's criminal career going to be over before it even starts? An outstanding issue! Cameo appearances by Harry Osborn, Madame Web, Captain DeWolff, and the Black Cat. (Notes: The Hobgoblin returns in Amazing Spider-Man 244. This issue was reprinted in Marvel Tales 258.) 32 pages. Cover price $0.60.

    Uncanny X-Men (1963 1st Series) 168N VF 8.0

    Starts Feb 17

    Newsstand Edition. "Professor Xavier is a Jerk!" Story by Chris Claremont. Art by Paul Smith and Bob Wiacek. Professor X has ordered Kitty to leave the ranks of the X-Men, a position she feels she's earned, and join the ranks of the neophyte heroes in training the New Mutants. Needless to say, Kitty is not happy about her mentor's decision. Wolverine begins a leave of absence from the team. Meanwhile, Xavier attempts to adjust to his new body... a body that enables him to walk! Plus, the deadly Sidrian Hunters return (last seen in Uncanny X-Men #154). And in Alaska, Scott runs into a very familiar face. Wolverine's story continues in Wolverine (1982 Limited Series) #1. NOTE: 1st appearance of Madelyne Pryor. Cover price $0.60.
