Well at least Newspaper Spiderman has never made a deal with Mephisto, so he's still leagues ahead of Comic Book Spiderman.

Yes and... no?

Spider-man escaped the collapse of the multiverse, so technically no. Not that it matters because basically everyone else he got mind-wiped by the devil doesn't exist anymore outside of a dozen heroes, including Mary Jane and Aunt May - so effectively yes?

But there's also Ultimate End where Secret Wars Spider-man (not Actual Spider-man) has to coexist with Secret Wars Ultimate Spider-man (not Actual Ultimate Spider-man) and the rest of the Ultimate universe who've known who he is for months since he very publicly died over there. He has a great scene which is very much NOBODY MUST KNOW I'M REALLY PETER PARKER where he outs himself to all the regular universe people who didn't know.

I'm not a fascist. I'm a priest. Fascists dress up in black and tell people what to do.
I wish someone would post Hälge. I think it's a good swedish comic (though the author died recently). I'm too lazy and busy to keep up such an effort but here's some samples:

"So typical..."
"These things never happen..."
"During hunting season!"

Basically it's about Hälge who is a moose, and also a lot about the guy on the left (Edwin) who is a hunter. Both live somewhere in rural sweden and the hunters life basically revolve around the moose hunting season. The guy on the right is his friend and stereotypical macho-character.


"Ye gods what pain! I'm constipated, in all four stomachs!"
"I need relief!"
"nnngghh"
"Yeees!"


"So you're saying it's legal to shoot injured and sick animals, regardless if it's hunting season or not..."
"Yes it's really an act of mercy, to spare them further suffering"
"Fascinating thought, I wonder if I should bring this idea up at work"
"What do yo do?"
"I work in health insurance"

Took some liberty with some translations.

I believe that this is the week that Bud Grace decided he needed to modernize the 'jokes' in Piranha Club, so now in addition to the usual parade of hacky old-timey Catskills-reject jokes about mothers-in-law and cannibals and how bad his wife's cooking is, he's added the 1950s lounge act staple, "Look at the screaming gay stereotype."

I wonder if he sat there pondering whether the comics page was ready for such a bold, ultra-modern move, and if he was ready to weather the onslaught of complaints and praise that would surely follow. (Mind you, this being newspaper comics, I'm sure there's some paper in Florida or South Carolina or wherever that did get a complaint, probably from someone as old as Bud Grace.)
