Back in 2002 I did a live shot at our local movie theater at the premiere of Spider-Man 1. We had a big promotion leading up to it, I gave out free movie tickets etc. I also did a live shot and convinced our morning show producer Jason Walsh to get into a Spidey suit. He did a great job and he recently went through some old tapes and just uploaded this to youtube. Our weatherman Gary Bandy was also decked up as the Green Goblin. It was a blast to do!

In the spirit of giving the people what they want, “Peter/MJ week” continues!

Going backwards a bit from yesterday, here is Peter and Mary Jane’s first kiss. One of my favorite first kisses in comics ever. I love how Robbie is so obviously looking at them out of the corner of his eye. This classic moment can be found in “Amazing Spider-Man” issue 143 and is collected in the “Clone Genesis” trade paperback.

Fashion expert Tim Gunn is reviewing superhero suits. It’s a fun interview. You have to sit through a lot of DC characters, but around the seven minute mark he reviews Spidey’s various suits.
