The Triumph of the Green Goblin
1
Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends!
Iceman and Firestar.
Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends!
If you can make it to the tunnel,
it's a clean getaway.
Yeah, but I can hardly see.
- Can I do your windshield?
- The wall-crawler!
The web-head!
Just your friendly neighbourhood
Spider-Man.
Turn there.
It's slippery.
Just your friendly neighbourhood dummy.
Oh, no.
Oh, yes.
Here I come to help my chum
cos he was dumb.
Iceman!
In any amusement park
this would be a high-priced ride.
Thanks, freeze-face.
You'd get fancier treatment
but I'm late for a date.
We are late for our dates, web-head.
The stolen jewels.
And those are the creeps who stole them.
You'll probably get a medal for this
and all I'll get is a cold shoulder.
- You ought to love that.
- Funny, webs, funny.
Come on, let's get to the girls fast.
Guess he's in a hurry too, or he
wouldn't be flying in weather like this.
I'm sorry I made you fly
in this weather,
but I had to leave the sanatorium
immediately.
We'll make it, Mr Osborn.
They let me out. I'm cured.
I can be Norman Osborn again,
not that other creature.
Oh, no. Bail out! Bail out!
Mayday! Mayday!
Cured? Cured of being the Green Goblin?
Never.
Never!
Never. The Goblin lives again.
Ms Lion, you scared yourself.
Don't get too comfortable, Ms Lion.
I'm ready to go to the party now
without the boys.
I'm sure Peter and Bobby
will be back any second.
Tell me, Angelica, why are you going
to the comic book costume party
as that awful Spider-Woman?
Private joke between your nephew Peter
and me, Aunt May.
- Mona's going as
- Medusa. The lady with the living hair.
The living hair that's gonna get you.
Ms Lion.
- We're here.
- It's about time, turkeys.
Captain America at your service, ladies.
And, would you believe
Your friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man.
Actually, Mona, it's me, Bobby Drake.
I'm much more lovable than old Cap.
And I'm more lovable than he is,
Miss Jones.
I'll be the judge of that, Mr Parker.
Let's go. It's party time.
COMICS COSTUME PARTY
This is great. Everybody's dressed
as a comic-book hero.
There's another Spider-Man.
And another one.
Look at them all.
I didn't know I was so popular.
Don't let it go to your head, Peter.
There are a dozen supervillains too.
Look out!
The Green Goblin.
Look out!
Two of them, flying on wires.
Some superhero.
Those Goblins may be fake but
something's turning my spider sense on.
Whatever turns you on turns me on, too,
Spidey darling.
Excuse me, Angelica,
I've got to go to the lab.
Well, of all the
The jungle gets steamy
this time of year.
- It's hot in here.
- And you'd better believe it.
There you are, Spidey darling.
Now, where did
that cute little superhero go?
My hair! My mascara!
Something's wrong in the lab, alright.
I caught me a wall-crawler.
You're at the mercy
of the real Green Goblin.
And of course you know
I don't have any mercy.
Where's my formula, web-slinger?
I hid my Green Goblin inventions
in the safe but my formula's missing.
The formula that I,
as Norman Osborn, was perfecting
the very moment an accidental explosion
changed my life.
It gave me superhuman powers
and my new identity as the Green Goblin.
Stop struggling.
My ray will hold you frozen for hours.
This is the future finder, Spider-Man.
Look. See the future.
These creatures
are the people of New York.
My formula will make everyone
ugly, grotesque, horrific,
like me.
Does Mona know her Uncle Norman
was the real Green Goblin?
I don't think so, Angelica.
But let's talk about us, angel.
That's that jungle rabbit
who was after Peter.
He's not with her. Something's fishy.
Well, excuse me!
It's not here. My formula is not here.
My niece, Mona Osborn.
She's a student here.
She'll know
where the formula's been hidden.
Peter? Are you here?
Wonderful. I'll use your friend
to do my dirty work for me.
Liquid nitrogen
turns steel to peanut brittle.
Watch.
This'll really crack you up.
Peter?
Spider-Woman is great, but it's time
for me to be myself, to be Firestar.
When your young lady opens the door,
she'll get a chilling reception.
For the last time, Spider-Man, goodbye.
Peter, are you there?
I heard you.
I'm coming in.
Heat shield.
More heat. It's counteracting
the Goblin's ray. More heat.
I can't hold the nitrogen off
much longer.
It's eating through my heat shield.
The ice. I'm losing power.
I'll crystallise.
Good shot, Spidey.
Norman Osborn's
become the Green Goblin again.
Now he's after Mona.
What are you standing here for? Come on.
That's just what I was gonna say.
So tell me, Mona,
where would you like to live'?
In a hot island like Hawaii
or someplace beautiful like Iceland?
Mona Osborn, may I have the next dance?
Mona, if you want to
Wait. I
- No!
- See you back at the gym.
Boy, that student
really rigged up the wires.
Wires? We're outside.
- That was
- The real Green Goblin.
- Yeah.
- And he just took Mona.
Yeah. Say, I'd better change to Iceman
and help you guys get her back.
And he thought of that all by himself.
I'll beat you both there.
Where are we going?
I'll go to Osborn's old factory.
You take Osborn headquarters.
And I'll try Mona's home.
And, guys, the Goblin's planning
to change everybody
into ugly little green goblins.
I don't know.
For web-head it'd be an improvement.
- Spider-Friends
- Go for it!
No time to take the bridge,
so I'd better build my own.
Alright!
There's Osborn's old factory.
Looks deserted,
but looks can be deceiving.
No! Don't!
I showed you where
they kept the formula. Please, don't.
But you must test it for me.
Just one little sip, that's all.
How Santa Claus does this and
keeps his suit clean, I'll never know.
No! I don't want to look like
Like me? No one'll notice you
because everyone will look like me.
You remind me of someone I know.
How predictable.
The wall-crawlefls come to rescue you.
- I knew it!
- So did I.
The future finder.
The Goblin's here, alright.
My spider sense is heading for overload.
OK, so I didn't exactly surprise him.
But you're in for a few, bug-brain.
Take a load off your feet.
That's my Spider-Man disposal unit.
Nice, Gobs. But you forgot,
I can cling to any surface.
Any surface?
Afly
The Wall's getting hot.
That's better. It's time I got out of
Oil.
Losing your grip, web-slinger?
- This is getting serious.
- Maybe a little nap'll help.
Sleeping gas. That does it.
He's breaking loose.
Help!
Help!
Mona!
- No! No!
- Up there.
Yell nail-
I can always count on you
for snappy dialogue.
What is this? Cream of garbage juice?
So much for his plan
to turn the town into Goblin City.
Wrong again, insect.
There's more than enough formula here
for New York, New Jersey,
Philadelphia, Washington.
I'd better stop him before he reaches
Anaheim, Azuza and Cucamonga.
Hang on, web-slinger.
It's going to be a bumpy ride.
Lucky fool. I'll let centrifugal force
get rid of you for me.
Time to change partners.
It worked. He's gone.
Oh, no.
The first thing to do
is get rid of this Green Goblin goop.
That's the last thing you'll ever do.
Goodbye, web-head.
We're over Central Park.
There's nothing for you to cling to.
Spidey!
Well, it's the great Popsicle.
Saving your life
is getting to be a habit.
That's one habit you shouldn't break.
There's a law against building
in Central Park.
This'll cost you.
Mona's not home, so I
The trouble twins.
That slide is
an unauthorised construction.
No problem, Officer,
it's all taken care of.
We'll see you around.
You can't clutter up the park
with that slide.
- What slide, Officer?
- That slide.
Can I have your autograph for my kids?
If you had a formula,
what would you do to get everybody
in New York to try it?
Advertise on television?
No, you'd get people
to breathe it or eat it or
Or drink it. He'll try to put it
in the drinking water.
I hate to say it
but the wall-crawlefls right.
And the city reservoifls
here in the park. A few blocks away.
- Spider-Friends
- Go for it!
I win!
Tomorrow everybody will look like me.
Sorry, but you're not my type.
The troublesome trio!
You're too late.
The formula's in the water.
Here we go again.
OK, Mr Cool,
here's your chance to be a hero.
Freeze the reservoir.
All the way to the bottom.
Anything for you, Firestar.
Sizzle-sis, look at this.
Not bad, huh?
I'll scrape the bug off on these wires.
Those are electric wires. If he
touches them he'll blow this thing up.
This'll do it once and for all.
I'm too low.
Stop napping, ice cube.
Get a police helicopter.
I'll try and cut the formula
out of the water.
That's the Goblin's formula.
It hasn't mixed with the water yet.
- Guys, got a minute?
- There really is an Iceman.
Osborn. He's back to normal.
There goes trouble down the drain.
Let's see how the webbed wonder
made out.
What happened?
I'm Norman Osborn. My plane
was in a storm and I bailed out.
- And you don't remember anything else?
- No.
His amnesia's returned.
He's Osborn again.
Did I become another person?
Let's just say if you went on stage,
you could sing a duet with yourself.
I'll go back to the sanatorium.
I'll stay there till I'm cured.
This time for good.
And just at the last moment Spider-Man
crashed through the door and saved me.
He's wonderful.
Sure, if you like
creepy, crawly, buggy guys
Who are powerful, daring,
handsome, intelligent
- Conceited, overbearing
- Overbearing?
And don't forget scary, brash, impolite
and all-around yucky.
And what do you think of Spider-Man,
Ms Lion?
