My prediction, he gets cold feet or backs out for other reasons and they realize that they can just hire some rando and license Spidery-Sam for the show. Cut to Spidey vandalizing a TV shop for daring to tune in on its display screens :arghfist::spidey:

This is another story where I'm genuinely curious where it's supposed to be going. There doesn't seem to be any real villain aside from Pete's remarkably fragile ego, so unless the idea is that we watch him getting over being such a bitch baby, I don't know where this story is headed.

Just a little bit of sunshine!

"Spider-Man harasses a random passerby because he doesn't know where the plot is, also he smells so bad that she notices it while he's ten-twenty feet away" has convinced me that we are actually reading the strip Jonah's snotty nephew wrote to smear him.

I thought the whole point of the punisher is that he's a vigilante, knows he's on the wrong side of the law, and is fine with it, because extrajudicial justice is the only justice some people will ever get. Sorry lady, but you're covering for someone who...

What has he done again?

In a very different kind of story, the self-righteous vigilante saying "That's the downside of being a vigilante. You end up becoming the thing you hate the most." would be a telling moment of self reflection.

I think my favourite part of Spider-Man losing his mind over this dumb comic strip is, this is Spider-Man!
More so than many other heroes, Spider-Man's rogues gallery hates him on a personal level, they are willing to go to prison just for an opportunity to punch him in the mouth.

And the reason they hate him is the fact he never shuts the gently caress up, he is constantly making fun of them, quipping like an rear end in a top hat and giving them childish nick names.

So it's hilarious seeing him getting so pissed over a comic strip that's basically the equivalent of a five year imitating a teacher they don't like by talking in a silly voice.

At the time of the stripe Brandon Tartikoff either was or had been the head of NBC. That might be where Brandon K Brandon got his name.

December of '88 right now so Brandon Tartikoff was the current head of NBC. Was gonna say they didn't reference him too much with how much heavier K Brandon is, but looking at them closer the artist really nails the crooked smile, huh.

Funny you should say that, there's an HST quote I think would fit NSM. "There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.”

Huh, the name jumped out at me but I decided it was probably just the name alliteration that plagues comics. Real world satire? In my Newspaper Spider-Man? It's more likely than you think.

He apparently ordered two of his goons to get into a street shootout with the police. Something he could face charges for, but it's not the stuff of a storied criminal mastermind.
