Spider-Man vs Teen Pregnancy

[cyberghostface]

Disclaimer: This is a FREE comic that was given out as a PSA. Thus, I am posting it in its entirety.

If only Gwen Stacey hadn't been got in this green person's spell. :P

[mullon]

I find it really hard to believe that this wasn't a joke.

[grazzt]

I don't know. They were willing to do a PSA where Spidey was molested as a child. This is nothing compared to that.

[sixbeforelunch]

I initially read that as 'a PSA where Spidey molested a child' and another little piece of my innocence died.

[cyberghostface]

You'd be surprised at what Spidey's done.

I'm actually pretty impressed by the voice acting in those.

[stubbleupdate]

I'd rather have ... an orange

[kashmirkong]

Mayor: But Spider-man, 400 million can buy many oranges!

Spider-man: Explain how.

Mayor: Money can be exchanged for goods and services.

[skalja]

I'm pretty sure that was 400 dollars if you listen closely. At first I thought, "Spidey, you dumbass, even 400 dollars can buy, like, 1,500+ bananas!" But perhaps he's protesting a government that considers four hundred measly dollars fair reward for saving the New York Metropolitan area?

I am dying of laughter over here.

[proteus_lives]

I want to see a G.I. Joe PSA about teen pregnancy now.

[crinos]

And again: I ask the eternal question:

Why is anyone taking sex advice from a guy who, with a head like that, has probably never had sex.

Hell, I'm fat, hairy, and I live with my dad, and I'll probably lose my virginity before Turnip head here.

[nezchan]

Am I the only one who thinks Spidey in the preview image is winding up for a FALCON PUNCH?

[jcbaggee]

"...even if it's only for a few minutes" is certainly an optimistic view, if you know what I'm saying.

[skalja]

It kills me with laughter and awesome that ROSS ANDRU drew this. Poor guy.

[thirdblindmouse]

This pale skin makes him nauseous? Um, why couldn't he disguise himself as a black Earthling?

[darkblade]

Not green enough. The only being on this primitive planet with a decent skin tone is the Hulk but he doesn't have the build for that disguise.

[thirdblindmouse]

I like how their only information about homosexuality is "Don't worry, you're probably not homosexual." You'd think an anti- teen pregnancy PSA would say something more along the lines of "Don't worry, screwing people of the same sex won't cause pregnancy."

[farla]

I don't know, I think it could be great if they took it a little further.
Having close friends of the same sex isn't a sign of homosexuality!
Having a crush on one isn't a sign of homosexuality!
Kissing one isn't a sign of homosexuality!
Having sex with one isn't a sign of homosexuality!
Homosexuals are, uh...people who have sex in funny masks. Without proper protection. Don't be a homosexual, kids! Remember, always use a condom even if you're doing another guy.

[darkblade]

So CSI-verse furries (as well as some real ones but they are a minoirty) are homosexual?

[thirdblindmouse]

Homosexuals are, uh...people who have sex in funny masks. Without proper protection. Don't be a homosexual, kids! Remember, always use a condom even if you're doing another guy.

Even if you're doing another guy in a funny mask!

[geoffsebesta]

"or ever will be."

LOL

[thirdblindmouse]

Bah, the fiends are trying to dash our hopes!

[schala_kid]

Yeah, it was silly but at least this Spidey wouldn't have made a deal with the devil.

[box_in_the_box]

As absurd as this is, I find it soul-crushingly depressing that there's absolutely no way that Marvel could get away with sending a similar common-sense message of "Hey, kids, if you're going to have premarital sex, do it safely."

Think about that - as a society, we've actually become LESS enlightened on this score than we were DECADES ago. The plot involving Leader Jr. here is patently ridiculous, but at least people were willing to SAY this shit back then.

[kashmirkong]

That's probably because it's become a society where someone gets offending by any damn thing, then sues for emotional damages.

[freezer]

This is so very very Seventies.

the ultimate, irresistible "Pull of the Prodigy"!

Wish I could find that other Spidey PSA with the Power Pack.
