Made better by the fact that MJ isn't yet a love-interest but just some girl from Peter's school.

Just stepping out from nowhere, in the secret nation of Wakanda. On a battlefield, smacking Thanos with a pipe after the Hulk failed...and winning anyway.

"Ticker, you'll be a lot happier once you stop caring about the opinions of a culture that is beneath you."

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

Opened my eyes.

FTFY

Monday will be a three-panel version of Sunday's final panel. Tuesday might be when we finally find out what the blanket is for.

Presumably the blanket is/was to gag him once he was knocked out.

Or maybe she meant to throw the blanket, and the tripping resulted in her bumping into a random piece of pipe and hurtling it at his neck?

This cant be how it ends. Each arc lasts around half a year, so they still have like two months to go.

Some how they are going to gently caress this up.

I love how MJ protects Spidey's fragile sense of self-worth by saying she tripped.

She's the most competent person on the team. She didn't miss. She didn't trip. She's just letting Pete save face. She's saying "it's okay to trip and fall down and, in some nutty way, win. What's really important is to get up, so you can try, try, and trip again. You're doing such a good job, honey."

In a strip that features Newspaper Spider-Man, I think we all know EXACTLY who is going to gently caress this up :)

She hid behind the blanket so she could sneak up on her victim. Without object permanence he had no way of guessing there was a person behind it.

she's either going to put him to sleep like a parakeet, or else she's going to cover him with a blanket and then hit him with a pipe again
