Web of Spider-Man vol.1 no.66 from July 1989 written by Gerry Conway with cover art from Alex Saviuk, and in "Friends and Enemies", and while swinging home, Spider-Man's spider-sense warns him of danger, when suddenly he spots Mark Raxton, aka the Molten Man! But this time Mark's not looking to make trouble, he's looking to avoid it when he tells Spidey he has really turned his life around & warns that Tombstone plans to steal Diox-3 from Osborn Chemicals! Neither are aware that the Green Goblin is observing from above! Later that night, Mark is there when Tombstone approaches the gates, lets Tombstone in, and leads him straight into the trap both he & Spider-Man have set! But when Tombstone's goons & their high-powered weapons get the best of the pair, in swoops the Green Goblin with an assist, for the good guys! When they finally chase the goons away & get the chamber open, they discover the rear wall has been blown open, as the Green Goblin insists that Diox-3 is not explosive, leaving them to wonder what really happened?! #webofspiderman
