About the Amazing Spider-Man Facsimile Edition #259

Continuing a Facsimile celebration of the early days of Spider-Man's black costume, which he has now discovered is really an alien symbiote intending to bond with him forever! With a little help from the Fantastic Four, Peter Parker has been separated from the suit and is now back in the ol' red-and-blues as he hunts for the Hobgoblin. But it's out of costume where the real revelations await: Mary Jane Watson has known Peter's dual identity for years, and now it's time for her to share her own secrets with him! Meanwhile, Reed Richards continues to study the symbiote - which may be more intelligent than even he realizes! It's one of the all-time great Marvel comic books, boldly re-presented in its original form, ads and all! Reprinting AMAZING SPIDER-MAN (1984) #259.
