I think that 5th panel word bubble was supposed to go to Pym. Spider-Man's rather full of himself.

Probably not in front of three super heroes. But on the other hand it's probably not a great idea to admit to murder in front of four witnesses, even if two of them do have secret identities to protect. Also, he's also definitely going to jail for kidnapping and shrinking Pym.

Spidey will testify against him on the grounds of "I'm Spider-Man, why would I lie" and Jameson will be forced to defend his cousin's killer with attack articles against the webbed menace's miscarriage of justice.

The whole thing will take two years.

Remember that a volcano doesn't have to be active. The entire central part of the US is a volcano that will pretty much destroy civilization when it erupts again. Unless Trump gets there first!

I grew up about 90 minutes from ABQ, on the side of a massive dormant volcano. It was weird when I moved and found out most soil isn't a couple of inches of dirt on top of compacted volcanic ash. Geology is awesome. And yeah, there are petroglyphs all over the place if you know where to look (and the preservation folks found them before the vandals did).

About 7,000 acres so there's space to roam in. They'll still fight on top of priceless archaeology.

If the sentry obliteratesAlbuquerque, who would notice? There's about three office buildings and a hotel downtown and the rest is a single-story spwarl that's as brown and flat as the ground it covers.

They have a great natural history museum, the rattlesnake museum that Craig Ferguson liked to shill on his show is a block away, and the national atomic energy museum is there too. Well, they used to be there before the shrooming.

And judging from the angle of the arm we would probably be able to see the rest of this monster if the panel would just move to the right a bit.

It's just an arm. Tyrannus wants to break into the movie review biz and this is his shtick for a "thumbs up".

You don't wanna know what happens if he hates a movie.

Reminds me of how Batman Odyssey (a wonderful, wonderful trainwreck of a story) has the hollow earth be low gravity because you've got the gravity of the surface above you counteracting the gravity of the planet's core below you.

As a reminder, the author of Batman Odyssey, Neal Adams, is a proponent of the "inflating Earth" "theory", rather than plate tectonics.

That's actually true. When calculating the gravitational pull of a spherical object on something inside it, the pull from the material above cancels out of the equation. Hmm, how to explain it better without being arsed to do an MSPaint diagram...

Say you have a sphere of radius 1, and an object 0.5 units away from the center. You can divide the sphere into two figures, a sphere of radius 0.5 and a spherical shell going from 0.5 to 1. That shell will pull on the object from all sorts of directions with varying intensities for different parts of it, but if you do the calculus it all cancels out to zero. It's the same sort of calculus trick that lets you count a spherical object as having all its mass at the center for calculating gravitational pull.

Ten limbs is a squid, not an octopus. And I think they'd be called arms rather than tentacles, though I can't recall if that's just to distinguish between the two types of squid limbs (eight octopus-like arms and two tentacles with spade-like ends kinda like hands) or if there's a formal distinction.

Then again, we've seen what this comic things an armadillo looks like.

I think Peter can show prior use on that patent. Or did I get the various trademark/patent laws confused again?
