I don't know, when I was a kid, it seemed cooler. Now I see a good Spidey vs Sandman battle, but still can't get bad guy's motivation. Why does he need Norman to become Goblin? Okay, he doesn't know that he IS Goblin and Norman lost his memory, but so what? And the spider lab cliffhanger is escalating, but very slowly.
Additional materials: mythos, told by Jackal, Sandman's origin and bio, drawing lesson, quests and funny story about Sandman, working as a beach for Octopus and Electro. Well, that one wasn't that bad at all. Pretty much very sandmanish issue.
