He was responsible for World War One, though. The assasination of Franz Ferdinand has Newspaper Spider-Man written all over it.

Namor brought him up there solely to have the UN representatives gawk at a little kid writhing in pain. Do you really think hes all that concerned about him?

I like the suggestion that Namor will be back in 24 hours after declaring the oceans off-limits, but that no other superhero is actually gonna bother to show up to do anything about it other than Spider-Man.

And here we see the origins of Spider-man's nemesis. When his family was brutally smashed, the brick would go on to assail Peter at every turn.

Also, uuuh, Peter, you can jump good. And possibly reload your webshooter. Why not just swing or jump away? Also why are you breaking INTO the building?

On one hand...seeing the protector FINALLY get his poo poo epicly handed by spidey is awesome...but that doesn't change the fact that this entire arc feels like it was 90% just filler to pad out time.

Peter still hasn't teamed up with a much more competent hero in this arc so here's hoping

Ah yes, SWAT-members, well known for letting strangers roam free during high-profile arrests.

Then again I can't really fault Stan for not knowing SWAT procedure (or markings for that matter) during that comics run.

Still there is something to be said about a man almost defeated by a whip-wielding faux cowboy managing to easily outwit a squad of cops.

This is the 80s, Peter is lucky they didn't arrest him for being Spider-Man.

They don't realise he actually is until nobody admits to planting the costume on him.

The Bombastic Bag-Man has been in almost every game. I'm pretty sure it was in the new one from launch? I vaguely remember it.

I'm just joking because fans of the game endlessly demand and wish for every costume variation ever. But yes, there is the FF Bag-Man costume in the game already.

With the amount of detail they put into the last game I would expect the occasional "Augh!" out of him whenever one of the shoes swung around and beaned himself in the face.
Which *would* happen, constantly, as much flipping as he does while webslinging.

Why did he take his shoes off? Is it because he can only stick to buildings if his skin touches them? But if that's true, how can he do it in his spiderman costume?

The spidey costume fabric is thin and does not interfere with his stickiness, but a thick leather shoe heel would.

This would be I think the first of three Bag-Man costumes? If the strip is from 1980. Chronologically, the third is what should be rightfully called the Bombastic Bag-Man costume, not the one with the FF suit.

Any time he's wearing a paper bag is the Bombastic outfit. It's very versatile.

She have to make a sign with very large letters (with illustrations) in order for him to get it.
