Amazing Spider Man 19-21. Dec 1964-Feb 1965. Stan Lee/Steve Ditko
Spidey fights the Enforcers, Sandman, The Scorpion, and The Beetle. Once again, the term "pantywaste" is all over these books, which is bizarre. I guess people just threw it around a lot back then - more than I'd have assumed.
Peter is still torn between Liz and Betty Brandt, and Aunt May keeps talking about blind dates with Mary Jane. I'm not sure when she's going to be introduced, but the build up is making it a pretty epic moment.
I've also noticed asbestos being mentioned across several issues. I don't know if this is a credit to how prominent it must have been in the 60's, or the fact it seems like it has something to do with fire - since the Torch is in like every issue.
Either way, I'm still enjoying this title, even if it is a little 60's hokey. Mike Mine Marvel, Stan!
