    Wow, this is Mysterio done right. He really uses the power of illusion to get to Spiderman. I have to say, as far as the writing is concerned on this issue, Stan Lee has out done himself. I mean, this is some real Hugo Strange kind of stuff. It shows that his characters can realise their own weaknesses, and instead work through their strengths. Through that particular strategy, Mysterio comes closer than anyone ever has to defeating Spiderman. This is really a top notch issue. Not as good as some of the later stories, but definitley for it's time.

It still has all the normal drama - conflict with Flash Thompson, Betty/Liz triangle, J. Jonah Jameson coming up with a new way to discredit Spidey in the Daily Bugle, and Aunt May's list of worries. But it also has Spi...
