Peter taking May to the movies 👌
The way Black people are drawn here is so uncomfortable. I know it was the 60s but damn. Couldn’t even find it in them to make the hair a different color than the face. Or do anything other than take a white guy and color him in gray (literally all the white side/filler characters look the same and have the same hair) At least we made progress there over the years.

I liked this continuation of the story that had Spider-Man caught between two criminals battling to be the new head honcho in the city. There's plenty of action, standard Peter Parker problems, and a good little continuation of the mystery surrounding Frederick Foswell.

Love the way the plot zigs when you expect it to zag. Love all the little teases thrown in for future stories. Love everything about the Crime Master reveal and his demise. This series is just so good, so early in its run.

"Amazing Spider-Man #27" prosegue la storia da dove si interrompe il volume precedente, offrendo ai lettori una continuazione avvincente, ricca di mistero e di azione. Questa storia è significativa nella mitologia del personaggio dell'Uomo Ragno e ha contribuito a stabilire il Green Goblin come uno dei principali avversari.
La copertina di questo volume è incredibile, con Spiderman circondato dai cattivi, in una situazione di estrema difficoltà. È un'immagine potente che cattura perfettamente l'essenza delle sfide che il nostro eroe deve affrontare.
Un elemento degno di nota è il cambiamento nello stile di presentazione del titolo e della copertina, che ora appaiono più raffinati e moderni. Questo segnala un'evoluzione nel design che riflette la crescita e la maturità della serie.
La trama si apre con il Green Goblin che gode per aver catturato Spider-Man, ottenendo così il controllo sugli altri cattivi. Tuttavia, grazie all'ingegno di Spiderman nel creare ragnatele resistenti, il nostro eroe riesce a liberarsi e la battaglia inizia. Le vignette che mostrano Spiderman rompere le catene e liberarsi sono straordinariamente disegnate, catturando perfettamente il senso di potenza e determinazione del nostro eroe.
Con l'aiuto del nostro eroe, la polizia riesce a catturare molti dei cattivi, ma Goblin e il Signore del Crimine riescono a sfuggire. Spideman si reca prima a casa di Fosswell e poi nell'ufficio di J. Jonah Jameson, dove il Signore del Crimine apre il fuoco creando del caos. La trama raggiunge l'apice quando il Signore del Crimine viene colpito a morte dalla polizia, con il suo ultimo respiro che porta con sé un segreto che avrebbe potuto cambiare tutto.
Una rivelazione sorprendente è quella di Fosswell come il Guercio, che agiva come infiltrato nella malavita per conto della polizia. Questo svela un lato completamente diverso del personaggio, aggiungendo una nuova dimensione alla trama.
La riflessione di Peter Parker sulla natura imprevedibile della vita reale e sull'identità dei cattivi è un tocco di saggezza che aggiunge profondità al personaggio - storia palesemente scritta da Dikto.
In conclusione, con una trama coinvolgente, disegni eccezionali e momenti emozionanti, questa storia continua a dimostrare perché l'Uomo Ragno rimane un'icona dei fumetti. La combinazione di azione mozzafiato e profondità dei personaggi rende questo volume un must per ogni appassionato di supereroi.

The best part of this comic is Spider-Man’s ongoing battle with his true arch-nemesis: sewing.
This issue has a nostalgic feel to it that reminds me why I like Spider-Man as a superhero. Previous issues have given me great Peter Parker moments, (not to forget classic Spider-Man moments, too) but this one has the Wall-Crawler fighting henchmen while tied up, bursting out of chains, and crawling through sewers to follow bad guys. Spidey also turns out to be completely incorrect in his bold assumption that Frederick Foswell is the Crime Master, which adds an unexpected twist that plays around with expectations.
There’s just something about it that reminds me of being a kid watching Spider-Man cartoons and reminds me why I dressed up as the web-head for Halloween. Did I mention that he hates sewing? Role model.

Just as Crime Master is about to complete his take over of crime syndicate The Green Goblin busts in with a unconscious Spider-Man so naturally everyone claims allegiance to Gobby. Spidey wakes just as he's about to be de-masked and the Police storm in. Later the Crime Master is shot by the Police and revealed to be... Well no one we knew actually..
The opening page for ASM #27 now reflects that we're now into the period where Stan and Steve's relationship had broken down so Ditko was left mostly alone which explains the "plotted and drawn by" Steve Ditko credit. The opening page is also infamous for its suggestive depiction that Goblin is ready to do something to Spidey's behind.

Kisahnya adalah lanjutan dari volume 26. Spider-Man berhasil ditangkap Goblin dkk. Namun, ketika mereka ingin membuka topeng Spider-Man supaya mengetahui sosok sebenarnya, ternyata ia hanya berpura-pura pingsan sehingga langsung melawan mereka. Tak disangka, ternyata tiba-tiba ada tiga polisi yang menggrebek markas Goblin dkk. Kepanikan pun makin berlanjut.
Di sisi lain, Crime-Master yang menyaksikan hal tersebut langsung kabur, begitu juga dengan Goblin. Spider-Man memutuskan untuk mengejar Crime-Master karena penasaran dengan sosok di balik topeng; apkah ia Frederick Foswell atau bukan. Selanjutnya, kita akan mendapatkan jawabannya di akhir cerita.

The plot twist I never saw coming! Was not expecting to be so easily tricked in this comic. Well done, Stan. I'm impressed 👏🏻👏🏻 However, this comic did feel like there was a lack of plot, but it wasn't too off putting

Steve Ditko really outdid himself here. The entire scene with Spider-Man and the chains, as well as the chase through the sewer pipes, are probably some of the coolest and most timeless-feeling drawings of Spider-Man in the first 27 issues of the Amazing series.

Sepertinya Stan Lee berniat membuat cerita yang panjang. Sayangnya ceritanya tidak menarik. Penutupan cerita yang sengaja dibuat rumit olehnya juga mengecewakan.

just a sad excuse to include green goblin in a story about another boring mysterious crime boss

I think the quote that blows all of this out of the water is as follows: "Isn't there just a little of Peter Parker in all of us?" And ain't that the truth?
