Spider-Man: Shadow of the Green Goblin #4

Spider-Man grapples desperately with a massive, hulking Proto-Goblin in a violent struggle across this striking cover by Paulo Siqueira, while a leering Green Goblin face looms ominously in the corner — a reminder of the shadow hanging over everything. The series title itself shatters apart in fragments of green, a nicely atmospheric touch that sets the tone for what promises to be a tense conclusion. With J. M. DeMatteis writing and a cover blurb promising the Proto-Goblin's final fate, issue four of this 2024 Marvel series looks like a satisfying payoff for readers who've followed this dark corner of Spider-Man lore.
