Morlun was frustrated because of the time fuckery, he was pulled out of the universe and told that the timeline was unstable by the webspinner, who was lying to protect the pure and innocent newspaperverse.

Newspaper Spider-Man is a weird mix of all kinds of stuff, the Spider-Man 3 movie is canon to this strip. I'll buy that Ant-Man can't shrink Peter. Or he's being a dick.

It makes no sense that Scott would have rode an ant there, because even with wings it'd take so much longer to travel much distance that it'd be completely useless. So he is definitely just loving with Peter.

No, see his car is parked in the adjacent lot. He rode the ant to the lab from his car. So technically his statement was correct.

Look, if it's either fly across the city on a tiny insect who will take ages to get there or dealing with New York traffic, I'll take the ant.

Dexie posted:Wait. Are you serious? There was a story line where Pete decided to check-in on Sandman after he retired from crime with a caption box saying something like "As seen in the hit movie Spider-Man 3!". Worth nothing that this wasn't a tie-in to the movie around release or anything, it was years later. Maybe even after the first Amazing Spider-Man movie, I don't remember exactly how long ago it was.

The Spider-Man comic is weird as hell about it's tie ins, because it just came off a Dr. Strange storyline and now it's doing Ant-Man, and it's like...that's not even close.

And the last time we had a non-tie in it was loving Clown 9.  He wasnt a supervillain or anything, Spidey just lost a fight with an ordinary clown. Synthbuttrange fucked around with this message at 23:12 on Sep 4, 2016 |

Some discussion in the movie thread reminded me of some 60s Namor lovin' from Daredevil #7--way back. Namor shows up in Manhattan, and he wants to sue the surface world! The only problem? He can't figure out hi tech human contraptions, like doors.  You'd think this was a one-off joke, but I promise that we are about to be treated to three straight pages of Namor being utterly helpless when he needs to enter or exit a room. Let's see what happens EXACTLY 60 SECONDS LATER:  Has he figured this door thing out yet? How will ever be able to leave the offices of Nelson & Murdock, Attorneys at Law?  Ah.

You'll note that he understands exactly how an elevator works. He knows it's behind those doors, he knows it's a car that moves between floors, and he knows that pulling on that cable will bring it down. He just refuses to push the button, wait for the doors to open, or wait for the car to descend on its own. Namor has no time for such nonsense.

I'm reminded of those panels of Dr. Doom refusing to use doors. Apparently Namor was a trendsetter.
