Stan Lee decided to include social commentary into Marvel Comic storylines. In 1971, Peter Parker's best friend, Harry Osborn, developed a drug problem. The problem persisted for the rest of the character's life. Harry had to bear the burden of being the Green Goblin's son, the breakup of his relationship with Mary Jane Watson, and eventually becomes the New Goblin. Lee decided to get around the comic code by printing "Not approved by the Comic Code Authority" on the issue. This opened up unlimited potential for comic writers.
