“Spidey Saves the Day!”

In "Spidey Saves the Day!", Spider-Man faces off against the Green Goblin in a high-stakes clash that takes a surprising turn when an explosion wipes away the last few years of Norman Osborn’s memory, leaving him confused and unrecognizable. Written by Stan Lee and brought to life by John Romita’s dynamic art with inks by Mike Esposito, this 1985 issue captures a pivotal moment in the web-slinger’s ongoing battle with one of his most enduring foes. The cover, also by Romita with inks by Esposito, perfectly captures the intensity of the fight.
