Spectacular Spiderman Adventures #124

$6 Bucks. A whopping $6 bucks. Can you believe it. It broke the Spidey-ham bank. That's how expensive this piece was on Heritage. I can't believe it. It's an outrage. But before there was Sybil, and before there was Primal Fear, before there was Shutter Island, and before there was Split, there was Norman Osborne with his multiple personality, so I had to have it. What a nut case he is. Spidey's arch nemesis sees himself in the mirror, and gives himself a wicked laugh. Behold "The Green Goblin".

“Battle not with monsters, lest ye become a monster, and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.” – Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil

I thought this page might be published, since the pencils are so tightly finished. See description below. A big thanks to fellow collector Paul Loader, and now I know it is a preliminary finished concept. See published page below for comparison. My pencil image sure does capture Norman Osborn's shame in knowing he has a multiple personality that takes control at a moments notice. What abuse could he have endured to become the Evil and Jolly Green Goblin. Just a fun page all around.
