Title: The Amazing Spider-Man
Issue Number: 264
Release Date: May 1985
Highlights
- First appearance of Philmont "Pops" Magee, Red 9, AKA Wallace Jackson, Benjamin Handley, Cheryl Swanson, Dr. Rattamun, Mindy, Wendall, and Mr. Blodgett
- First appearance of the State Street Hospital
- A goofy story, and a trend it seems in this timeline of Spider-Man
- Red 9, a new villain in town is dead set on defeating Spider-Man for one reason - To show the folks back home he can whip anyone
- Pops orders Spider-Man to clean up the mess he made by crashing through the window of his hospital room
- Dr. Rattamun, annoyed with Pops, tells the old man that he was told three months ago he only had one month to live, and should have stuck to that schedule
- I stopped noting thing because this is like a bad Archie book, starring Spider-Man
- First zero Stans rating
Oddities
- Spider-Man dropping swear words - Not cool, Marvel
- The state has declared Pops dead, and by the end of the day Rattamun will be throwing him out of the hospital
- Spider-Man says he'll sort out the mess
- Spider-Man webs up a hang glider, and uses it to soar across the sky attached to a speed boat
Rating (based on a 1 through 5 Stans grading system)
