I'm kind of curious, now. What does the Newspaper comic do when the comic characters die? Does Harry Osborne just stop showing up in the Newspaper Comic after a while?

Tunicate posted:it's its own continuity, so whatever stan thinks is best They're weird about it, though, because sometimes it's definitely its own continuity with the first newspaper appearance of a villain or a guest star, but it also often takes for granted that the comic book stories, at least the classic ones, already happened to Peter. I mean we saw Venom in a flashback the one time, and he's never been in the strip.

"Venom? I sure hope the symbiote doesn't suspect that Peter is actually Spider-Man!"

I feel bad for poor Harry Osborne, who's going bald at his age.

Peter is going to punch the skull out of Flash, which is why there's no newspaper Agent Venom

I think there were some arcs that also treated the original live action movies as canon (I know there was one with Sandman that directly referenced Spider Man 3 at any rate).

"Can't let Carole suspect", thinks Peter about the girl who, a few strips ago, was visiting his apartment, saw footprints in the ceiling and then got a confession that Peter Parker was indeed Spider-Man.

That is definitely what suspicion looks like.

I like how Flash and his friend didn't seem to have realised that punching might hurt his hand and they're both shocked by the discovery.

Spider-Man trying to save his love from falling to her death so of course there had to be a *snap* sound effect.

I don't think a pile of garbage will do much to cushion a fall from the Empire State Building, regardless of flagpole-slowing-downness.

the strangest thing about all of this is that anyone would willingly hang out with flash, when he randomly accosts couples on dates to grope the girl. 60's or not, that's not really appropriate behavior for anyone.
