Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spiderman

Hey Sporehacker the New Goblin looks to be part APE or possibly Gorilla 😮🎉😂😂 🤔🤔👍

More alien than gorilla. Still I do like this take on the character, but unfortunately it also was the beginning of a lot of problems that would come back to bite Marvel Comics in the future. It was nothing more than a place holder until the real green goblin came back, because they are incapable of killing a character for good

It's a travesty what they did to Ben Reilly now

[@TSPH1992]

@@darksydeiscomics1891I don't know what they did after he presumably died only to be brought back. And to be completely honest I'm not in a hurry to find out either

@TSPH1992 he became a cool character and then butchered him in modern comics. Not worth checking out

It didn't sound to me like you butchered any of the most common and well-known names of the talent - DeFalco, Buscema, Sienkiewicz, Fingeroth - that you were concerned with. I wasn't ever a fan of The Clone Saga, either. I “only” read issues #1-155 of The Amazing Spider-Man, stopping before that original Saga story in the mid-late '70s. Perhaps that story is good for what it is; reflective of the times, of the world of fiction at the time. I certainly have far less, zero and worse, interest in the '90s regurgitation of the story, involving Ben Reilly's Scarlet arachnid knockoff. That said, without having read this I'd go into this issue with a mind open to be willing to enjoy whatever it has to offer. Plus, I only ever read comparatively early issues of both the Spectacular Spidey and Web of Spidey “alternate” Spider-Man titles. Thank you for going over another tale from the past that I'm fond of, TSPH. Have a great rest of your week.

I don't blame you
