Amazing Spider-Man #40 (Marvel, Sept. 1966)
Classic Silver Age key featuring the origin of the Green Goblin! In "Spidey Saves the Day!", written by Stan Lee with art by John Romita Sr. and Mike Esposito, the explosive conclusion to the Green Goblin saga reveals Norman Osborn’s tragic backstory. After an intense battle, an explosion causes Osborn to lose all memory of being the Goblin—offering Peter Parker a temporary reprieve but setting up years of psychological warfare ahead. Iconic Romita cover and interior art mark a pivotal stylistic shift in Spider-Man’s look. 36 pages, full color, 12¢.
MAJ. PICTO'S GRADING NOTES: VG+ (4.5) — light spine wear and corner creasing; some cover oxidation but presents well. Solid mid-grade with strong eye appeal.
