Shadows of Evils Past - It's the Hobgoblin!




These are two great issues. Both by Stern and Romita Jr.

A mysterious figure learns of an old Green Goblin hideout and from there finds more of GG's equipment. The man decides that Norman Osborn must have been insane not to make money from his fantastic inventions but after trying it all out realises that the lure of the power it gives him is too much and decides to follow a similar path and become the Hobgoblin!

However, his first encounter with Spider-man in issue #239 does not go well and Hobby only just escapes.

These were such a good read. Super-hero comics at their best.

Rating 9/10
