Amazing Spider-Man issue 25. Let’s forget about the fact that if Liz and Betty shaved their heads we wouldn’t be able to tell them apart. First Mary Jane from the neck down. Too bad that flower is devouring her face.

“Spectacular Spider-Man” issue 51 retconning the aliens from “Amazing Spider-Man” issue 2 even with the “never return to Earth” line. Heck, they even threw in a retconned Mysterio origin for good measrue.

Spidey Memories#40
From "Spectacular Spider-Man" 199. Harry has just been released from the Vault. It’s amazing how much emotion Sal Buscema put into each person’s face. From Liz’s denial, Harry’s evil smugness, Mary Jane’s anger and Normie being…Normie.

I love this story, it is by far one of my absolute favorite issues ever of any comic book series, the fierce rivalry between Liz & Betty is always good for a few laughs, especially since they’re on the crush for “Puny Parker”
How come such a great memory isn’t a hot subject like the “Disney/Marvel” merge?
I wonder how Steve would have drawn MJ had he not left the book. Then again why question what might have been, right? Romita designed a knockout that we’ve all come to know and love.
Remembering that whole “keep what MJ looks like a secret” thing, it looks like that’s (in a way) what they failed to do with Jackpot… anybody know what I mean? (haha, I hope so.)
This is the issue that set Spidey apart from the Archie contrasts. Betty wised up and went for Ned, and Liz…she sort of began to lose relevancy right up until she fell for Harry.
Oh original continuity, how I miss you.
I don’t think they were drawn exactly alike. Betty had a slightly more round face, and their noses are different.
You missed the funnier page which preceded it, which had them awkwardly walking up to the door and scowling at each other. THAT was some funny stuff. 🙂
