Amazing Spider-Man #27
Plot: Spider-Man saves a cat that smells like poop from two Ralph Fiennes rejects.
Likes: Not a whole lot. The highlight of the issue was a beautiful two-page
spread where Spidey bonked the bad guys with two garbage can lids!
Dislikes: The super-villains were a step up from Typeface, but still
ridiculous. Calling themselves Mr. P and Mr. Q (I guess all the words in the English language have been copyrighted by Marvel already so they are having to resort to letters now) they go after an ugly mutant cat that is totally harmless save for its horrific smell. (Maybe P and Q should go after Taco Bell patrons next.) Spidey’s spider-sense wasn’t working in this issue, either…he was barely able to dodge bullets, got torn up by the cat and even got flattened by Mr. P’s pathetic laser cane. Sad. Really, really sad.
Rating: 
out of four web-heads. You don’t need a spider-sense to tell you
that this comic is a waste of money. This tale was brought to us by the letters P and Q and the number 27. No cats were harmed in the making of this comic. Spider-Man’s wardrobe provided by Marvel Fashions 500, Mister Q and Mister P’s wardrobe’s provided by Armani.
