The Spectacular Spider-Man #200

May 1993 · Marvel · 2.95 USD; 3.75 CAD; 2.20 GBP
“Best of Enemies!”

In "Best of Enemies!", Harry Osborn’s fractured mind battles the Green Goblin’s influence in a harrowing spiral of self-destruction. As he confronts Spider-Man in a desperate, unstable state, the arrival of Mary Jane and their son forces a moment of chilling hesitation. Written by J. M. DeMatteis and brought to life with powerful art by Sal Buscema—both pencils and inks—this 1993 issue captures a pivotal emotional clash, with Bob Sharen’s colors and Joe Rosen’s letters adding depth to a story that lingers long after the final page. The cover, also by Sal Buscema, perfectly encapsulates the tension at the heart of the issue.
