AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #116-118 (1973)

AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #116

I know what you’re thinking: How does John Romita not know that Spider-Man has lenses over his eyeholes?

Answer: It’s not a mistake.  Remember, in the last story, when Spider-Man lost his mask?  Well, he’s been using a plastic halloween costume version.

In this issue, he steals his old mask back from JJJ.

That’s pretty much all that happens.  The rest of the story is a remake of a non-continuity Spider-Man tale from the old black and white Spectacular Spider-Man magazine.

Bad editing, though, on Harry’s dialogue.

“Your” a sick boy???

The story over these issues is basically the same as the one in the black and white Spectacular Spider-Man #1. Strange.
