I vote the MTA has a special Spider-Man clause where if the person in the spandex can climb across the roof to cross the turnstiles then they are either the real Spider-Man or someone who spent way too much money to figure it out and thus likely a future super villain so just let them through.

This special clause makes J.J.J. FURIOUS. That's why he hates Spidey, because he's a freeloading fare jumper.



edit: I don't know the source, I just binged Jameson hates Spidey because he is black.

That's actually from She-Hulk Vol1 Issue 4. She- Hulk's partner is representing Spider-Man pro bono in a lawsuit against JJJ for libel. Spider-Man would have won too but the lawyer decided to include Peter Parker in the lawsuit and Spider-Man ended up settling.

I actually had that game as a kid. It was kind of okay (barely). Most of Superman's powers were in it, and some of the parts seemed to be inspired by the movies (in the third part of the game you end up fighting a giant computer that's been manipulating stock prices, which is kind of like Superman III).

Why does the Dragon have an inhaler?

The dragon is actually D-Man. The inhaler was given to him by Lockjaw's sister Doc Jaw (from universe 8311 or Larval Earth, same place Spider-Ham is from).

Deep down, maybe we all are. Maybe there is no actual difference between the two spells after all.

He's a centaur, which is a monstrous humaniod. Charm person only works on humaniods.

How does Lobo have a daughter? Wasn't he the last of his race because he killed them all?

Somebody really needs to explain to DC what "The Last" means. Superman's supposed to be "The Last Son of Kyrypton" but there the place is lousy with Kryptonians.

IIRC Crush, aka Xiomara Rojas, is half human although the identity of her mother is unknown. She did come from outer space (for some reason) and the ship carrying her to Earth as baby crashed outside of the Burning Man Festival and she was adopted by two of the party goers there.
