Gwen Stacy is dead, thanks – in part – to the Green Goblin, who is racing away vowing to Spider-Man that he will soon be joining his true love. Spider-Man, furious over the tragic loss of Gwen, swears that if anyone is going to die this day, it’s going to be the Goblin. Chasing after his mortal foe, he manages to hop on the Goblin’s back and pummel him. However, the Goblin manages to get away when he slams Spider-Man into the side of the George Washington Bridge.
