there should be a spider guy without web shooters so he just gets really good at jumping
Ricochet
Flash tried it and died to Vulture.
That's what Spider-boy is.
Web shooters were always so moronic, so the bite gives you wall crawling, spider sense, but no webs? organic is the way.
It also attracks autists like a friend of mine saying Garfield was better and more accurate than Tobey because of them.
If I recall correctly, the spider bite gave him the knowledge of the web formula. The original web shooters were just Aunt May’s perfume bottles. In the 1960’s, characters made all kinds of inventions from dumb shit.
This poor sap didn’t become Spider-Man after getting bitten by a spider.
What comic is this?
“Ruins” (1995) by Warren Ellis. I don’t recommend reading it, but if you really want to, it’s only 2 issues, so it won’t take you very long. It’s a dark, twisted companion to “Marvels” (1994); same concept, Phil Sheldon details the history of the Marvel universe, except in this universe, everything goes wrong, characters face “realistic” consequences of their origin stories instead of becoming marvelous superheroes/villains. It’s deeply upsetting and disturbing to me and I wish they hadn’t published it at all, there’s no reason for there to exist a Marvel book where it’s just the Marvel Universe but everything sucks instead. I read it towards the tail end of a shroom trip though so maybe that has something to do with why it affected me so much on an emotional level.
Sounds like this was more personal. Nothing really struck me except Galactus in space with the headline on a newspaper "God found dead". That really haunted me compared to everything else. I guess it was the sum of it all, everything being horrible and then seeing what they think is God lying in space dead. Truly felt like a all is lost moment.
I think the Spider-Man thing bothered me so much because for one, it’s just a disturbing image to look at, and two, I never really have been a big Marvel guy, but Spider-Man holds a special place in my heart because I grew up watching the Sam Raimi movies, and he’s just neat to me, so to see Peter Parker in that state just hits me hard. I know he’s not a real guy, of course, but still.
It was supposed to be a comedy
But it wasn’t funny, just distressing to read
The Ghost Rider thing was kinda funny though
That was Ellis' intent but I think it turned out poorly
I mean it's more or less edgy for the sake of being so, barely justified by the possibility of some butterfly effect caused by Ben Grimm who's the only one to get a "happy ending"
Other than that, it can derail into torture porn with stuff like Cannibal America, Fury just shooting prostitute Jean Grey without any reason and TorsoSilver.
Kek, of course it's Warren Ellis. That explains everything. Man, I love that guy for being able to express his absolutely terminal levels of salt in so many high-quality works. I have no interest in reading any of them, but you have to admire that kind of spite.
Kind of. He still gets the red with webbing, and white eyes with black outlines.
