Concerned enough about his posture to get a gym ball but still slouches on it like a slob.

Isn't he married in the comics? If so, I'd go with the idea that his wife and doctor were more concerned with his posture (and the former with the floor scuffing), but the hunching is more his way of rebelling. That was my interpretation. Either way, I absolutely love watching him race down rabbit holes after Spider-man.

That scene in the second Spider-Man movie where his desk is covered with pill bottles and he's desperately trying not to yell at Betty Brant is so great. :allears:

Yeah I know. There's barely any bad scenes in it (most of them are in the last 20 minutes), it's just that none of the scenes follow each other and the film is an incoherent mess as a result.

They should've just kept JK Simmons in all three versions.

I suspect the reason that JJJ never even cameoed in the Amazing Spider-Mans or Homecoming is because how the gently caress can you follow that up.

He also either used direct photo reference or committed to the bit enough to draw Cox doing his blind acting and not matching the other two's eyeline.

Oh it wasn't anything so dramatic.

Count Nefaria tried to take control of Norad with his ani-pals. The X-men promptly routed them, and while running away, Thunderbird jumped on Nefaria's jet and punched it so hard it exploded, killing him.

The odds John Proudstar was going to have a long career were pretty low.

In another (popular) timeline, John "Thunderbird" Warstar became Apocalypse's Horseman of War, so that checks out.

Somewhere in the Multiverse, there was (is?) a reality where Slapstick or Morph or someone else equally ridiculous ascended to become Apocalypse, and picked equally-appropriate Horseman - Howard the Duck and Squirrel Girl, for example.

Perhaps Doom saved us all from that outcome, and Reed Richards et al managed to *not* restore it.

Only via future one-shots, events and parody pages will we ever know...

It actually kinda was Spider-man's fault. He was all "Don't worry Jonah, I'll keep her safe!" Then like 5 seconds later his spider-sense didn't warn him a huge piece of shrapnel was headed for her head and she died.

I want a list of all the batshit Z-list villains that Stan Lee has created and debuted in Newspaper Spidey, because they are equal parts wonderful and terrible. I want Big Time, Clown 9, Hammerhand, and all these other gormless morons to exist in the official marvel handbook and be played entirely straight.
