There are 2 public schools several blocks from each other, where I still live in between them. Their interior designs of the hallways and gymnasiums are the same. But I only had to endure going to one of them from Kindergarten to 2nd Grade, to still be haunted of my own past.

Now, I’m being encouraged to enter one of them to vote in the gymnasium in November. And I have to choose between my laziness/reluctance to do something outside of my automatic stimulated interests, in order to save our democracy from tyranny.

I love that Marvel chose Canada’s superhero representative to be a short grumpy elderly alcoholic!

Just a fun fan comic I'm messing around with. This is a parody of the famous "Spider-Man No More!" John Romita Sr. interior art

2007's Sensational Spider-Man Annual Vol.2 #1 cover by Salvador Larroca (both a tribute to John Romita Sr. and Ross Andru). When Fraction & Larroca (then the future Invincible Iron Man creative team) used this issue to say farewell to this married couple (several months before the start of the reviled "One More Day" story arc).

Nostalgic Extra: Halloween (adjacent) edition!

Happy Halloween, everyone!  My review for “the Hobgoblin, Part 2” Will be dropping on Monday, but in the meantime please enjoy this first ever full-page appearance of the Hobgoblin from ‘The Amazing Spider-man #238’ by John Romita’s Jr. & Sr.

Unfortunately, I was behind schedule on being born, so I missed the release of this issue by a couple years. Thankfully, not unlike my introduction to the Symbiote-suit arc, I was ultimately able to hunt down Hobgoblin’s origin via some back issues of ‘Marvel Tales’, which reprinted several Issues from Roger Stern’s critically acclaimed run.

Initially, those three issues (pictured below) left me on a tense cliffhanger for a number of years, before I was finally able to find the conclusion.  This was back in the day where reliable access to comprehensive trade paperback collections still wasn’t a thing, and Amazon was only in its infancy. You just had to accept that if you missed an issue, there might not be much you could do about it.

Naturally, I would always perform an extensive sweep of the back issue bins whenever I visited the more out of the way comic shops.  Even then, you would count yourself lucky if you found just one missing issue in a multi-chapter arc, jig sawing my collection together one found treasure at a time.

Strange to say, but I kind of miss those days. Who ever said Nostalgia was rational?
