First printing. Newsstand Edition. "Sleight of Mind!" Giant-Sized 30th Anniversary Special Issue. Silver hologram cover. Script by Howard Mackie. Pencils by Alex Saviuk. Inks by Sam DeLaRosa. The wondrous wall-crawler is chasing robbery suspects through the South Bronx when he suddenly runs into Galactus! The Ravager of Worlds has beaten the Avengers, Fantastic Four, and X-Men and now blasts the web-slinger into oblivion! Or so the confused web-slinger thinks! However, the wall-crawler has just ventured onto the set of a movie…and his original agent, Maxie Shiffman, from days long, long gone by is there too. Before the spectacular one can ask Maxie what's going on; the Hobgoblin, Green Goblin, and Demogoblin attack! And a few minutes later so does Venom! The whole situation keeps getting more and more mysterious! And that persistent mist keeps hanging around too! Can the Amazing Spider-Man solve the mystery? Or perhaps just solve Mysterio! (Notes: Maxie Shiffman previously appeared way back in the very first issue of the Amazing Spider-Man (1st) series. This issue includes a fold out poster by Rick Leonardi and Al Williamson featuring Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2099. The second printing has a gold hologram cover and was also published in July 1992. The cover hologram is based upon an illustration by John Romita, Sr.) Cover price $2.95.
