Spider-Jam

[ludickid]

Here is what I am hoping: I am hoping that one of you -- hopefully calamityjon, but I'll take who I can get -- is still, for some reason, buying Spider-Man: Reign and can confirm or deny that this week's issue suggests that Mary Jane dies because Peter Parker fills her with his radioactive Spider-spunk.

That actualy happened in an issue of Powers.

[blake_reitz]

As you should be. As should we all.

Actually, it's more like that story you heard about Iggy Pop, where he had so much sperm he had to get his stomach pumped? Like that, only without the stomach pumping.

[aberranteyes]

I thought that was either Rod Stewart or Elton John.

[blake_reitz]

It varies depending on who's telling it.

[mr_rakshasa]

Sometimes it's Marc Almond!

I do not buy the book. But I read it without paying and, yes, I can confirm that radioctive spunk gave MJ cancer and killed her.

[heykidzcomix]

Right there, man.

The comments are the best part. And by best I mean "What the fuck is wrong with you?"

(answer: apparently a lot.)

[calamityjon]

This issue is, so far, the gut-bustingest of them all, and whereas Peter doesn't say outright that it's his U-jizz-248 which killed MJ (as opposed to, say, saliva or blood, I guess), there really can be little room for doubt.

Additionally in this issue: More J.Jonah Jameson talking like the Dark Knight, more Spidey villains being all EXTREEEEME and '90'zzzz! and, god love an Irishman, the Milleresque talking head which looks a lot like Jimmy Olsen? Turns out his name is "Miller Janson." OH HO JESUS SHUT UP.

I haven't been reading any of this, but I think I'd still prefer this ass-backwards parody of Miller to the pathetic self-parody that IS Miller these days.

Anyone remember the 10 Gigaton orgasm in B:TDKSB? How about Dick Grayson's death-by-volcano?

Or the last 5 issues of All-Star Batman and Robin..?

You're complaining to the wrong guy about All Star Batman and Robin.
