I like the idea of Lunella in a regular public school science class. All the kids making volcanos and she is nurturing a tiny star.

Did someone forget what Spider-Mans powers were, cause possessing the strength of many spiders isn’t that impressive.

When I was a kid the first Spider-Man comic I had was a little reprint digest of extremely old Spider-Man so I have a huge amount of affection for those idiots. Them and the stupid robot Spider-Man had to fight. It was pretty rad and also had the first Vulture and Electro stories as well as the one where Peter is really sick and gets beaten and unmasked by Dr Octopus.

Yup, they called me Fancy Dan. Later on, it was Presentable Dan, then Gruesome Dan, and then finally, Dan.

After the Waffle House incident, it was either change the suit or become Gravystain Dan.

It never ceases to amaze me when someone digs up an obscure silly character for laughs and we get the details on how they're actually an established icon with a history and a legacy, and modern, reimagined cameos

For all that I don't like Superior Spider-Man that much, I think it had the right point. Dr. Octopus is the best evil counterpart to Spider-Man because he is a put-upon nerd who is entirely selfish and self-centered and who uses his powers to help himself and not others.

Early Spider-Man has a fantastic moment that took them entirely too long to put in a movie That part where he's buried under tons of rubble and has to lift it all off of him, and Homecoming adapted it

Yeah, he's basically older, meaner, fatter Peter Parker. The split personality aspect of the Green Goblin is interesting, as is all the drama with Harry, but ultimately the Goblin himself is just some doofus in a Halloween mask.

Lurdiak posted:It saddens me that the Arkham games and the recent garbo animated movies have him voice Bruce as basically Batman Lite. Hell, even New Adventures kinda made Bruce Wayne more like Batman, and you lose something there. I always liked how there was a clear distinction between the Batman voice, the public Bruce Wayne voice, and the "real" Bruce who talks to Alfred and Robin, which is closer to Batman but not quite as harsh. I think this was a studio edict because they were afraid kids wouldn't be able to tell Bruce and Batman were the same guy otherwise.

Also the Human Torch not being in the old fantastic four cartoon was a rights issue, not people being afraid children would set themselves on fire.
