It doesn’t hold up, but readers of the ‘90s may still feel this series is a touch ahead of its time.

Spider-Girl: Vol. 4 – Turning Point collects issues #17-21 and #½ of Spider-Girl written by Tom DeFalco and Ron Frenz with illustrations by Pat Olliffe and Frenz. Continuing the adventures of May “Mayday” Parker, the daughter of Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson-Parker, this volume begins

with the trial of the Kingpin. His trial brings out both Darkdevil and Kaine, with the revelation of Kaine’s interest in Spider-Girl. Futher stories introduce Raptor, the daughter of one of the Vultures, as well as Earthshaker and Wild Thing. Normie Osborn returns as the Green Goblin, but Phil Urich becomes the Gold Goblin in an effort to end the Spider-Goblin War. In this, Urich foreshadows Norman Osborn becoming his own Gold Goblin in the most recent issues of Amazing Spider-Man and Gold Goblin from 2022-2023. Just as these stories are a great time capsule of the late 1990s Marvel Comics scene, issue #½ is fun as it shows the influence that Wizard Magazine held on the industry at the time. This volume comes in a digest-sized edition as Marvel was releasing some of its titles in that format in the mid-2000s.
