It was brought to my attention that, due to a printing error, many copies of Spectacular Spider-Man #200, the death of Harry Osborn, shipped without dialogue on the final page. I’m here to bring you the page as it was originally intended to be read. Thanks for the idea, Donovan Grant!
Those of you who have read Superior Spider-Man #2 might have noticed the stand-out dialogue line of the decade, courtesy of Peter Parker’s ghost: “It’s crazy town banana pants!” But what really might have caught […]
FIRST PERSON TO ASK FOR IT IN THE COMMENTS SECTION GETS A DIGITAL CODE FOR AVENGING SPIDER-MAN #17. Lately, when I’ve looked back at the historic use of Peter Parker’s classic catch phrase, something doesn’t […]
This video shows Spidey’s long love of banana’s.

@ #6, #7 Um….wouldn’t those be punishments, not rewards (for some of us)?

I don’t have any digital codes to give because I buy them digitally in the first place, which is the only way I can possibly do same-day reviews. If someone wants to volunteer some codes for a prize then I’ll make a contest out of it once I’ve gone through the ones I’ve already made/plan on making. If anyone has codes they’d be willing to offer up for something like that, or are willing to offer up codes when new issues come out, please send them to me in a PM through the message board. Don’t post the codes publicly.
What about a CTBP contest? The person who finds the best example in Peter’s backlog of what made this phrase such a classic wins a free download code for Superior #3? (or 4, maybe.)
Man… Sal Buscema could really nail the pathos of any given scene. It’s like he read the script, thought “Damn.. it’s crazy town banana pants? I really need to bring out my ‘A’ game.”
@2, it’s “regular” in the short term. There are just a few more I want to do.
LOL I just noticed the title “Harry Osborn Splits”
I smell a new regular article series coming…
This is the gift that keeps on giving.
