Hey There. I discovered your weblog the usage of msn. That is a very well written article. I will be sure to bookmark it and return to read extra of your useful info. Thank you for the post. I will definitely comeback.
I love the Spider doppleganger.
@6 Oh! So you’re the one.
All fixed.
I loooooove Doppleganger
There was a bad audio such during upload. I’ll have the corrected one up tomorrow.
I never like this character, but he is a great way to show why the 90’s was really awful time for Spider-Man.
@2 Didn’t he get revived to kill Macendale or something? Of course the real reason was so Marvel could start turning Spider-Man into a Image character by putting out of place horror aspects into his titles.
The Doppleganger…another example of how the good old days weren’t always good. I thought the video was a neat touch and you did a great job with it (my sound went out at the same time as Hornacek, though); however, I like reading the posts rather than watching or listening.
Keep up the good work, I’m really excited to hear more about these other Spideys (in any form you choose). I remember most of them, but there are some I haven’t run across yet (I had never heard of the knight version).
I can’t really explain it, but I actually liked Spider-Doppleganger. Even though he was a mindless brute, was really only good for cannon fodder, and came from the ’90s (which was about when I stopped reading Spidey comics)…but I still have a soft spot for the guy.
@#1 – The Spider-Doppleganger was somehow kept alive through Demogoblin’s magic.
In other words, it’s magic…we don’t have to explain it!
I lost volume from 1m52s to 2m11s. The video kept playing so it wasn’t a streaming issue. Anyone else have this problem?
All the other Infinity War dopplegangers disappeared at the end of that mini-series except for Spidey’s. I can’t remember if there was a reason given why his stayed.
