So apparently Spidey made bail but now he's got another problem....   Mysterio!  Actually I've been waiting for this issue for a while now.  

I took this book to NYC to get signed by John Romita back in the 90's.  At some point in the day I found him on the con floor by himself and was able to chat with him for a while.  This is totally unusual as any of you realize, but I guess all the kids were looking for the hot and new Marvel / DC / Image artist (I was too, I just paid attention I guess).  He really loved this 2-parter because Stan let him basically do the whole thing.  I also got to see his personal portfolio and talk about stuff for like 10 minutes or so.  Nobody bothered us or just him.  It was more priceless than an autograph.  Later on when I met Stan I also got him to sign it.  It's no 9.8, but for me this is perfect!  

I present, Amazing Spider-Man #66!
