Owner's Description

It all started here!

Here's the first appearance of Roderick Kingsley, the man who would become the Hobgoblin! Belladonna also shows up for the first time too. I always dig the "shadow" Spidey with the reversed-inks on his costume and this is a pretty cool Byrne cover overall. I guess we haven't seen Belladonna since PPSSM #48, we've gotta bring her back into the fold! The use of light purple and pinks on covers back then happened often, which is kinda cool as I like different.

This book was purchased graded, otherwise I'd have had the custom label on it (maybe one day). I had a 9.4 but the requirement for the set was 9.8 so here it is! After nearly 2 years of searching for a reasonably priced copy I found this one and couldn't say no. To give you an idea how long it took, I started a PPSSM run after starting my Hobgoblin set, and I've got 80% of 1-100 before I found this one!
