Spider-man escapes from prison with his roommate, Vin Gonzales. But Menace attacks again, wanting to exact vengeance on the police officers that framed her best friend Carly. This time it’s up to Harry Osborn to save the day. But will Harry Osborne give in to his addictions to be the Green Goblin again

This issue was rushed and it’s easy to see in the large panels used by Romita in latter pages. Tom Palmer, a good inker takes over these pages, but it’s quite easy to see the difference with Janson. Although Romita’s style stays the same, the width of the inked line is vastly different and causes some weirdness overall.

As for the plot, it too was rushed, but it was good enough and good wrap up of a long storyline. The ending with Menace and Norman Osborn is particularly interesting.

Rating: 7 /10
