@Aziz – Wormly was supposed to be the secret identity of F.A.C.A.D.E.
Whatever happened to Wormly?
I love these panels, and I always forget this story when I think about the times Peter has quit being Spidey, which happens more than you think. I remember in one of Bertone’s Spidery-Jeopardy he had a category called “Spider-Man quits” and the panel laughed because they didn’t think he could do an entire category of questions about Spidey quitting, but he had more than enough questions, each for a different time (similar to his “Spider-Man Killed A Guy” category”).
This was probably my favourite of the (many) story-lines where Spidey quits, it’s so satisfying seeing everyone react to his comeback. It’s actually pretty creepy seeing Jameson grin like that, the transition to his look of horror is a real relief!
