Regular blog visitors are probably tired of hearing me say that I shouldn't start another post while there are so many posts I have not finished. So why am I doing another one Today ? Well, Yesterday I could not open my picture archive for hours which made me realize that I should get those pictures on the blog as long as I can. And since I just finished with most of my Spider - Man stuff I decided to do the overdue birthday post for Sal Buscema - who celebrated his 87th birthday on the 26th of last month.
Now you might ask yourself how is it possible that I could not access my picture archive ( again ) Yesterday for hours and the reason is that when your computer is telling you that " Your files will stop synching soon if you do not pay me my file protection ( extortion ) money. " it is not talking about the usual shenanigans your laptop does to annoy you until you pay the ransom fee for One Drive like not showing you previews of the pictures on your computer, or not showing them unless you download - or alter - the pictures Today. Of course this is immediately null and void the next day or as soon as you close the folder and open it again. Oh, did I tell you that you only get preview pictures if you open the folder first ?
Yes, if you open it AFTER downloading the pictures you don't get Jack.
But no, when it says " stop synching " it means that it just won't open any folders no matter what you do. Better living through technology, my a$$.
Maybe it's just me but the longer I work with this laptop the more I get the impression that whoever designed this thing never used it for the normal things you do with a laptop like blogging. Or basically anything.
But you didn't come here to hear me ranting about my problems and I only mentioned them because it ties in to the genesis of this post. As I said I just finished putting ( most of ) my newest Spider - Man files in order among them new original art ( or old original art because I can't access the pictures I have on my old laptop ) for Sal Buscema's awe - inspiring 8 year run on PETER PARKER, THE SPECTACULAR SPIDER - MAN.
That's right, after getting the title off the ground providing the pencil art for the first five issues and doing most of the issues from issue 7 to issue 20 Sal left the title for greener pastures only to return and take over the pencil art ( and sometimes the inks ) from issue 134 to issue 218 - something most artists working Today can't wrap their head around.
With all that said I still have the feeling that our pal Sal - and especially his run on SPECTACULAR SPIDER - MAN - is very underrated and mostly ignored by the majority of Today's comicbook buying audience that is mostly interested in the main title AMAZING SPIDER - MAN and so called " key issues " which are first appearances of characters - preferably those who appear in movies and tv shows. So unless the Puma ( who will also be featured in this post ) is in the next Spider - Man movie I don't know if they ever will have any interest in this title. Although if I remember correctly the Puma's first appearance was in an issue of AMAZING SPIDER - MAN as an antagonist for the Beyonder. Curses, foiled again. And like I often say it all comes back to SECRET WARS II - my favourite crossover.
Yes, I said it but because I have already written about that at length in a plethora of other posts I won't bore you with that particular story again.
Now as longtime readers know I like to have a little theme to my post and so I have done my own Best Of with all the stuff I found especially cool about this run. We had a lot of Punisher pages in my last post about Sal Buscema's SPECTACULAR SPIDER - MAN issues so we are continuing the tradition with a few more pages I did not get to post the last time.
Another big part was of course the storyline about the crime boss Tombstone and his first appearance was in issue 36 of WEB OF SPIDER - MAN. Drats, foiled again. Anyway, this part is the only one that was collected in a trade paperback - the aptly named TOMBSTONE - and I can't understand why such a money grabbing company like Disney has still not thrown the follow up volume on the market. Shape up, guys !
I have also thrown in some Demongoblin for good measure - the storyline where the Hobgoblin gets a power upgrade during the INFERNO crossover ( my favourite X - Men crossover about which I have written six posts ) that also turns him into a demon is always a big hit at parties - and the obligatory Puma, one of the most underrated characters in the Spider - Man universe next to Silver Sable. Who might get her own post soon.
As for the rest of the new material I have left all of the stuff with Harry Osborn as the Green Goblin for my next post on Sal's SPECTACULAR SPIDER - MAN and I will also include some classic villains like Vermin.
By the way, it seems that my Sal Buscema Spider - Man posts are always well timed since my last one was my 900th post while this one is number 1,285. Compared to that 10 unfinished posts don't look too bad. What is that you say ? I can´t go without including the usual links to earlier Sal Buscema posts for new readers ? Okay, the things I do for my followers.
There is one tribute post about all the different books Sal worked on in 2015, one post in 2014 where I talked about his run on The Incredible Hulk ( which lasted ten years ) where I also mentioned other favorite periods in Hulkstory, another Hulk post where I listed which pages were missing in my french issues of Gamma and another Hulk post to pimp volume 7 of the Essentials which was offered for 8 bucks at amazon.
I also posted issue 1 and issue 2 of Amazing Spider - Girl where he inked over Ron Frenz in 2017 and managed to do a follow up post ( in which Mayday Parker's clone goes up against Tombstone ). Furthermore I did a special Thorsday spotlight about one of my favorite Mutant Massacre crossovers as well as another Hulk post with the complete original art for THE INCREDIBLE HULK issue 273 , the long overdue ROM SPACEKNIGHT spotlight post and one about his run on the original DEFENDERS. Who are not Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Misty Knight, Collen Wing, Alias and Daredevil .
We are starting off the bonus section of the post by giving props to the usual suspects, mainly the good folks from Comic Art Fans and Heritage Auctions who provided the scans of the original artwork without whom this post would not have been possible. This time around we have just a few links since I deleted all the links in connection with the SUPERIOR SPIDER - MAN story for personal reasons. Nonetheless there is the always trustworthy hardest working man in comicbook blogging Brian Cronin over at COMIC BOOK RESOURCES who reveals the secret reason why Mary Jane discovered that Peter Parker was Spider - Man and also ponders the question if Peter Parker was considered to be a good photographer .
The 90s was definitely a mixed bag for Spider - Man fans. There is one series however that never is talked about and which started as a good idea : since John Byrne had successfully revamped DC Comics biggest icon in the THE MAN OF STEEL mini series and the following Superman books ( which started the greatest period in Superman's publishing history with artists like Jerry Ordway , Bob McLeod , Kerry Gammill , Dan Jurgens , Jon Bogdanove , Mike Mignola , John Byrne , George Perez , Ron Frenz , Jackson " Butch " Guice , Tom Grummett and Paul Ryan on the books ) why not do the same with Marvel Comics most popular hero ?
Like I said, the general idea was solid but John Byrne's changes to the original origin story of Spider - Man were so minimal that they could be - and were - easily ignored by other writers. On top of that the art was not that good and so John Byrne's SPIDER - MAN : CHAPTER ONE became another comic series that joined the ranks of forgotten lore in limbo.
Speaking of Spider - Man's origin, it is still one of the greatest superhero origin stories in pop culture but sadly Today's comicbook afficionados are too busy scolding Stan Lee for taking credit for work he didn't do - even if he was not the one who wrote that he was the sole creator of the Marvel universe - that they forget to give him credit for the work he did.
Now I am not saying that Stan Lee created the Marvel universe alone but he was the one to come up with the original idea of a teenager who is a crime fighter - not a sidekick - and he also put down those words that made those stories so enjoyable to entire generations of comicbook fans.
And maybe he didn't do everything that reporters claimed in articles he did but for decades he was the face of Marvel Comics and their greatest spokesperson who was one of the first comicbook editors in chief who not only put all the creators in the credits but also gave them clever nicknames to make them sound cooler to the readers. He created the whole bullpen thing and always made the audience feel like they were members of an exclusive club by not talking down to them like others.
He also wrote STAN'S SOAPBOX which was a little column that appeared in every Marvel comic every month, where he elaborated on his ideas for a better world that run the gamut of topics from if Spider - Man should be drawn with or without the webbing under his arms - which a lot of lazy artists don't do - to the future of the comicbook industry or racism and bigotry and everything in - between. I could go on for hours but I think you get the idea so I will get off my little soapbox here ( see what I did there ? ) since the following video does a much better job of talking about Stan Lee's achievements without ignoring the mistakes that were made. But that's only natural because we are all only human. Excelsior.
And since we are on the subject of Spider - Man's origin story we have another edition of Marvel Mal Anders about Sam Raimi's opening act of his Spider - Man trilogy for my german followers. But don't worry, we will come back to this series in the part for all my spanish speaking visitors.
As I mentioned I left all the " Harry Osborn as the new Green Goblin " pages for my next Sal Buscema Spider - Man post but since I have no idea when - or if - I can write that I am including an article by Brian Cronin at COMIC BOOK RESOURCES about how Harry Osborn became an even more unsettling Green Goblin than his father as kind of an appetizer for that.
Speaking of unsettling versions of the Green Goblin, one of the best that has also become one of the most iconic - despite the costume that has often been compared to the Power Rangers outfits - is Willem Dafoe's portrayal in the first Sam Raimi Spider - Man movie. Even though I do remember that when the film first came out a lot of critics called his acting " campy " but over the course of time it vindicated itself to such an extent that Willem Dafoe not only returned to the role in " Spider - Man No Way Home " but I would even go so far that he is the main villain in the movie who does the most damage to Spider - Man / Peter Parker.
Of course Norman Osborn was just one of the many roles Willem Dafoe has played over the course of his long and illustrious career and I have to admit that I have not seen his latest performances. In any case here he's being interviewed by Pedro Pascal who obviously is a big fan of Willem.
We have the obligatory batch of videos with real life DD Power Girl Sonia Edde who could play Gwen Stacy's Mom even though that would take the relationship with Peter Parker in a different direction because Peter would be thirsting for the Mom rather than the daughter like in the song Stacy's Mom by Fountains Of Wayne and don't worry I had to look up the name of the band too. Here we have some of the newer videos of Sonia Edde where the camera is a bit nearer plus a Behind The Scenes video.
By the way, I still haven't been able to find any information on Sonia's measurements so if anybody out there knows more about the subject - or any other additional intel - please let me know in the comments below.
We are returning to the world of spiders and men with Archnophobia one of the more underrated movies in the genre of spiders trying to wipe out a community movie with Jeff Daniels, Julian Sands and John Goodman.
Now usually I try to include the same movie as in the preceding review video - or at least a similar movie that falls into the same category - but there are other times when I will include a movie that has nothing to do with it just because it is that good. And it's not every day that I get to include a movie that not only stars Marlon Brando and Mathew Broderick but it's also one that I have actually have seen and thus can recommend.

Speaking of the most bonerinducing cartoon ever banned on celluloid who basically invented rule 34 I already included the first part of my Top Ten Jessica Rabbit Lookalike Busenwunder casting in my FANTASTIC FOUR FRIDAY WITH JACK KIRBY post of 2022 with the second part in my Frank Robbins INVADERS tribute post - also from 2022 - but I never did part 3.
I know that I put a link to where it was supposed to be but since it is not in that post I have no idea if it ended up somewhere else or I just never got around to do it. Although seeing as there are still a few videos with possible candidates I haven't posted I am inclined to believe the latter.

Now with all of the obligatory comicbook movie casting stuff out of the way you are probably asking yourself : " But SUBZERO, what about newer additions to the female versions of Spider - Man like Spider - Gwen or Silk ? " to what I respond a firm and sound : " Well, what about them ? "
As regular followers of the blog may remember I was willing to ignore my initial disgust of the Spider - Gwen concept and give these characters a try with the True Believer issues of Silk and Spider - Gwen because you can't go wrong with trying out a new title if it's only one dollar, right ?
Wrong.
It seems I had to learn that even if you only pay one dollar you can still feel robbed. And those that are regular blog visitors know that this was neither the first time I picked up some True Believer issues nor the first time I bought comicbooks for a dollar or less. Heck, I wrote a few posts about my comicbook loot where I ordered a bulk of discounted issues .
But despite how bad some of those books might have been - and believe me there were some real stinkers among them - I still had the feeling I got my money's worth in terms of entertainment. Which granted, may not be much with a comicbook that you got for 20 cents but at least it had some kind of redeeming quality even if it was only a lame fart joke.
With the True Believer issues of Silk and Spider - Gwen on the other hand it felt like highway robbery and I'm pretty sure that I still would feel like I paid too much even if they were FREE COMIC BOOK DAY issues.
Besides having really uninteresting writing - not just bad but also of no interest to the reader - those books had what I can only very generous describe as fanart. And believe me, as someone who has spent his fair amount of time in the trenches rubbing shoulders with comicbook pros I have seen the difference between good fanart and professional artwork.
So no, unless a miracle happens and Disney tells Marvel Comics to get their s - word together you won't see any new additions to the Spider - Verse in my comicbook movie casting lists because so far all of these new books read like fanfiction. And not even good written fanfiction at that.
But that seems to be the case with most of the books Marvel Comics publishes nowadays. Which should not surprise anybody because if you start hiring creators - and I am using the term in the broadest sense here - based on gender - or the non existence thereof - sexual orientation or race instead of real writing abilities all you'll get is glorified fanfiction.
I'm just glad that I had the foresight to quit reading Marvel Comics when I did because apart from some scattered projects - like Alex Ross sublime Fantastic Four : Full Circle - that remind people why Marvel Comics was called " The House Of Ideas " and quickly changed from the young and hip upstarts to the bestselling leader in comics it is not a pretty picture.
As people who have been following the blog over the years know I have stopped writing about comicbook related news because it has become too depressing and filled with so many personal vendettas that I can't keep track anymore. Plus they have become stranger and stranger with headlines about comicbook " professionals " begging people online for drugs and money. There are so many people online claiming that most comicbook professionals have a second job to support their comicbook career and that there is nothing wrong with that. And I beg to differ.
Because if you have a second job because you don't get paid enough in your comicbook job to make ends meet - well, that is called a day job.
You know, what people have to sustain hobbies - like making comicbooks.
Because real comicbook professionals - those are the people who earn enough with their comicbook work to NOT have to get a second or third job. And that's not my definition, that is the definition of the IRS. If you are making comicbooks - even if you are a completely legal proper and registered comicbook publishing company - as long as you don't are at a point where you earn an income that alone can sustain you without any financial backing from the government is is legally declared as a hobby.
So all of those so - called professional comicbook writers need to do what the real comicbook pros used to do in ye olden days to make ends meet : write another comicbook. Because back then you couldn't expect to make a living just penning one title. Which is why writers like Doug Moench or Gerry Conway wrote huge amounts of Marvel Comics output.
Not to further a political agenda ( which doesn't mean that they didn't tackle socio political topics ), educate the stupid unwashed masses, guilt trip them with their SJW propaganda, womansplain or outright insult the readers. But to earn a living and do what they loved : entertain people.
Not make them feel better about themselves by conning unsuspecting comicbook fans out of their hard earned money or building a franchise to turn into a movie deal or a tv show because that is the hip thing to do.
After writing so much about the making of comicbooks I thought I should include a video about this topic. But since my readers are probably tired of my own exploits as a comicbook publisher here is an episode of Comic Tropes where Chris regales us of his own efforts to publish a comicbook.
I think this is something most comicbook fans can relate to and while I have many regrets I managed to print a few comics. Even if they were not the greatest at least I can pride myself that I gave it my best shot.

We continue our casting for the female supporting cast in a SPIDER - MAN movie with ultimate ASMR sexbomb Amy and in her case ASMR stands for " absolutely sexual stimulating men milking machine recreation ". I think she would be an absolute dream casting for the role of ravishing redhead super model Mary Jane Watson Parker and I can just picture a scene in which she surprises her husband all dressed up as Lara Croft which works better than even she suspects because Peter gets so excited that he just bangs her brains out and doesn't let her leave the bedroom for a week.
Longtime followers of the blog may remember that Mary Jane finished second place only by a breast's length after the double Dee delinquent Felicia Hardy a.k.a. the Black Cat in the " Sultry Spiderbabes " edition of my series COMICBABE BATTLE and only because of the new costume Mark Bagley drew at that time, delivering heavy on the fan service making all fanboys sex dreams come true if I have ever seen a costume do that.
As with Silver Sable I don't know if I would not rate Mary Jane higher if I did the ranking Today because you know the old saying " You can sleep with a blonde and you can sleep with a brunette but you will not sleep with a redhead. Because those nympho sluts are naturally born sperm extraction machines who turn into complete sex freaks in the sack who will go blowjob gonzo on your dick deepthroating it into submission until it's hard enough to cut a diamond and has grown to three times its regular size after which they will pump you all night long without mercy making you squirt load after load until you are completely depleted. "
I mean it's no secret that ultimate men milking machine Mary Jane was a promiscuous party participant who frequented every campus frat party where the horny jocks took turns slam - banging her brains out or that she was dicktamed by the entire football team in a crazy ejaculation sensation penetration sex marathon during their victory party where they used every cheerleader - as well as every big breasted female teacher who could not get away in time - like cheap blow up sex dolls.
Mary Jane was never portrayed as the ugly duckling who gets a makeover and suddenly has a big sex appeal blowout like it is so popular in woke entertainment. No, she was always the hip girl, you knew that she was getting copious amounts of dick and MJ was basically the campus slut.
Which is why ASMR Amy would be perfect for the role. In another case of life imitating art it is only thanks to the writers that Mary Jane has not become a world famous porn star ( although it has been decades since I dared read a Spider - Man comicbook so who knows what the cancel pigs are up to with Mary Jane ) while ASMR Amy got plenty of experience in milking giant monstercocks dry with her tits during her porn star phase.
And you can say what you want about Stan Lee but he was never shy about depicting the overwhelming effect that Mary Jane's mesmerizing measurements had on the male populace of the Marvel universe even if it may not have been appropriate like when she was a go - go dancer.
Which of course was the sanitized version of Mary Jane becoming a famous stripper. Because of the censorship by the Comics Code Authority they couldn't say that a possibly underage teenage sexbomb was taking off her clothes in front of dozen of drooling horny elder men many of which were also criminals. And you know that there was a special secret club within the club where the girls danced with very little clothing for a very select clientele which in those time probably includes the Kingpin.
Now I know that the whole thing of Mary Jane working as a go - go dancer ( if not outright a stripper ) sounds more like fanfic than what could actually happen in a Marvel comicbook and that I made the whole thing up but as I will explain in more detail in an upcoming John Romita spotlight ( and I can't say why I am going to write that post because it hasn't happened yet ) in the story " The Brand Of The Brainwasher " by Stan Lee with John Romita doing the pencils with some assistance by Don Heck and inked by Mike Esposito which appeared in issue 59 of AMAZING SPIDER - MAN some gangsters have the brilliant idea of brainwashing the customers of their night club to commit crimes. And to prevent them from noticing they are being brainwashed they hire absolute stunners like Mary Jane Watson to distract them with their nubile teenage bodies.
And they are not too subtle about the effect of Mary Jane's girating hips on older men as not only Gwen Stacy's Dad - who is one of the prime targets the criminals try to control with him being the chief of police and all that jazz - but also Robbie Robertson and even old curmudgeon Norman Osborn commenting how much they enjoyed her sexy dancing.
What's more, there are fan theories that say - and you can also read more about that in my aforementioned John Romita SPIDER - MAN post - that it was indeed Mary Jane's bonerinducing dance that reawakened Norman Osborn's Green Goblin persona ( since it represents his negative urges like violence and sex ) and led to Gwen Stacy's death after he took an experimental new Green Goblin formula that temporarily transformed him into a goblin sex monster with huge tentacles and sexually assaulted Mary Jane on her way home after her shift at the night club had ended.
Of course Peter eventually found and rescued Mary Jane but because he owned a lot of properties in different states he had him searching for months during which the pervert dicktamed Mary Jane in the worst way.
Of course as the director I would have to include a stipulation into the fine print of Halle Berry's contract that she has to rehearse all the sex scenes at least three times with the set's stunt cock - for which I would selflessly make the sacrifice to give my time and effort until Halle has completely milked me dry - before shooting at an undisclosed location.
