Things between Harry and Peter become strained in these issues! Uh… well, we ain’t seen nothing yet when it comes to that. Starting with #53, Harry is starting to get very pissed off with his roomate’s constant absences- Gwen reminds Peter she’s a science major, but alas she’s also currently stuck being the football between… Read More Amazing Spider-Man #53-56 (1967-1968)
If you’re a Harry Osborn fan, and I assume you are since you’re here and all, you might know that things are looking up for Harry’s future in the 616 comics now! Let’s celebrate with a look back at more of his early days. In #50, Peter suffers yet another blow to his life when… Read More Amazing Spider-Man #50-52 (1967)
Lots of things happen in this issue! Harry and Peter chat 60s-style, except of course thanks to the sliding timeline none of this ever happened in the 60s! So we’ll have to imagine what era-appropriate sex symbol Harry “really” referenced at this point. Ah this is all so sad to read fifty years on, knowing… Read More Amazing Spider-Man #47 (1967)

Looks like his school bully… Read More Amazing Spider-Man #41 – 43 (1966)
Well today I remembered that there’s over fifty years of comic book history to get through here, so I’d better crack on. Gwen, Flash and a random ginger kid who I don’t believe we ever see again are badmouthing Peter, who honestly has every reason to blank them at this point. And here we get… Read More Amazing Spider-Man #39 (1966)
Welcome back, true believers! Okay so the other day this happened in the spideycomicsverse and it reminded me to kick this little project back into gear. So! Last post we met Harry for the very first time and he was, to be honest, incredibly meh. But only SO FAR! Because the man who would end… Read More Amazing Spider-Man #34 – #38 (1966)
I started this little archive on my old blog a while back, but now it has a blog of its own! SO! Come back with me to 1965, a time when I was not born, and let’s take a look at Harry’s VERY FIRST appearance in Spider-Man. Pre-Gwen’s death, pre-drug addiction, pre-Norman existing even! It’s… Read More Amazing Spider-Man #31 (1965)
