I cannot believe I forgot about Newspaper Spider-Man!

Guess I missed bookmarking the thread when it switched over to 2018. I just read all 27 pages in one sitting. I mainlined the thread like it was an irresponsible combination of irradiated blood. It was amazing.

There's a strange trend in this comic where everyone, regardless of how evil or irascible, seems to get along with Mary Jane. The Lizard even told her where he was going.

It's pity.

The Lizard: "I could dessstroy her! No, I've sssseen her husband. The poor woman has ssssuffered enough."

Plus, Mary Jane is pretty cool. Nobody has any reason to dislike her.

I love when Spider-Man totally cuts loose and ends up stunning people who thought they knew his limits.

I’m really, really hoping Peter gets a moment like that in the Avengers movie.

E: poo poo forgot I was in the NSM thread. Thanos will probably take him out with a brick anyhow.

oh well, guess he's the Man Thing's problem now.

But why did the Lizard stop in his plan of conquest to run to a deserted shack in the Everglades? What could possibly make him run away, on today of all days?


Oh that's right, it's Valentine's Day. He's run to the one place he knows that there is a computer so he can access Porn-Hub Premium for free. It makes perfect sense for a one armed man who has regained his full set of limbs.

(I now expect the secret SA artist on NSM to sneak a computer into Lizard's reptile shack the next time the heroes get back to it.)

Winter Soldier throwing a punch and little kid Spidey blocking it and going,"Wow cool you have a metal arm! :haw:" was pretty great - it was the perfect combination of "Holy poo poo he's fast and really loving strong" and a complete lack of guile.

He's been tapping into Aunt May's bank account!
Didn't I kill him with a HELICOPTER?
He's been trying for decades, if the cure shows up out of nowhere, he'll take it, no questions asked. Plus, he is actually an Avenger, so he can tag Tony in for the team-up.

it turned out that he didn't get spider powers or brain damage. instead, the transfusion gave banner peter's propensity for failure. it's not that he can't become the hulk any more, just that he can't do it when it would be useful in any way.

Kind of hoping that somehow Spidey's blood reversed Banner, so he becomes the Hulk when he's happy

That was one thing about the bastard child from the Planet Hulk arc that I really liked-- the angrier she got, the weaker she got. As She-Hulk said to her "that is a serious cross to bear for someone of our skin color."

It was specifically a heart rate thing, which I suppose makes a bit more sense than just general emotions.

I remember that he rapes people, and also eat them.

Then Betty transforms into She-Hulk, and they gently caress so hard a mountain gets destroyed or something.

Never forget when Ultimates Hulk tried to kill Captain America for calling him a sissy while screaming "HULK NOT GAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

this was supposed to be the grim dark and gritty version of Marvel and instead they produced some of funniest slapstick I've ever read

I thought he told Hulk a bunch of aliens called him a sissy? I try to block that from my mind.
