Since he was fifteen years old, Peter Parker has borne a terrible responsibility. At that young age, he was simultaneously gifted and cursed, bitten by an irradiated arachnid and given the proportionate strength, speed and wall-climbing abilities of a spider. Since then, he has been obsessively targeted by the most dangerous and depraved men in the world - not the least of whom is the GREEN GOBLIN. Every hero has a nemesis, but few have suffered so greatly as SPIDER-MAN at the hands of this frightful foe. For decades, the GREEN GOBLIN has toyed with SPIDER-MAN, playing games with the wall-crawler's life. Fortunately, SPIDER-MAN has defeated his enemy every time, but he's never been able to put the GREEN GOBLIN down for long!
