Spider-Man: The Death of Gwen Stacy by Gerry Conway
In 1973, comic books were only beginning to escape the formulas by which they had been produced for decades. Many of the conventions of the traditional comic book story were being challenged by Start Lee's still young Marvel Comics. Conventions that for years had continued unquestioned: every story will be complete in an issue, no story will refer to events of a previous issue, nothing of any consequence can happen to change a character, and no one ever, ever dies.Gwen Stacy was the love of Peter Parker's life, and after years of having his dreams blow up in his face, he felt that his life might finally be turning around. Enter the Green Goblin. This maniacal villain, the only other person to know Spider-Man's secret identity, kidnaps the lovely Gwen, setting into motion the tragic events that would define the rest of Peter Parker's life. A powerful, moving story, The Death of Gwen Stacy shattered the preconceptions of the comic book story, and forever changed the landscape of the medium.
