She was in the kids’ band on The Electric Company. And…

I understand it's like, his job as an actor, but the fact that I've seen Josh Segarra in over 4 different shows and was shocked that it was HIM everytime because the characters were so different (physically, the way he speaks, how he dresses, even how he walks) is just so impressive and never ceases to amaze me!!!

BHOC: AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #186

AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #186 represented something of a turning point for the character, as new writer Marv Wolfman began charting out the direction he wanted to take the wall-crawler’s life in next. Last issue saw Peter Parker graduate from college, which seemed monumental for a series so associated with that environment, and now he was ready to move forward into the next phase of his life.
