Synopsis

STUPENDOUS! Of course it's stupendous. It's ol' Spidey himself in his first—yes, first—full-length novel. SINISTER! When a baddie drops out of a sky-high window (Did he jump—heh heh—or was he pushed?), Daily Bugle publisher J. Jonah Jameson wants Spider-Man to take the rap. Has the wall-crawler come to the end of his rope? Does his life hang by a slender thread? GLOBAL! To swing clear of this one, he's got to snoop on an international oil conference. There's blackmail! Radioactivity! And a welcoming committee of death-dealing arch-villains! DIABOLICAL! Who's behind it all? Think hard, ‘cause we're not telling. But it just might be that too much tendril looms large in Spider's formidable future!

Goodreads review by Michael on March 19, 2009

With the (seeming) multitude of Green Goblins that run around the Spider-Man universe, it could be easy to forget there was, for a short time, a third person who donned the Goblin outfit back in the day. "A New Goblin" collects that storyline together and it's full of all the things that made Spider......more

Goodreads review by Michael on February 12, 2022

A five issue tale from the 70's which is fine but not really worth a special collection. You have solid writing by Len Wein and solid art by Ross Andru but it is a mostly forgettable tale of a "new Goblin". I have to say - it doesn't make any sense that this new Goblin is "the fastest thing" because......more

Goodreads review by Shannon on September 18, 2013

It's fun to see how Marvel was playing with the legacy of the Goblin back in the day (and I enjoyed finally getting to read this complete story, as I'd only owned #180, the last issue, when I was young). Unfortunately Len's pace is too plodding and there's way too much artificially created drama for......more

Goodreads review by Matt on November 11, 2008

good silver-age story about the third green goblin. alluding that it's harry, there's a nice plot twist that was probably huge back then. i wish marvel would put out more of these older spidey stories out, cause comics these days just don't have the same feel.......more
