ASM Annual 18: Spider-Man ♥ J. Jonah Jameson.

[skalja]

I've been a bit surprised at the complete lack of Spider-Man entries for Gratuitious Butt-Shot Week. I mean, come on -- they're the Spectacular Spider-Buttocks! The most famous ass in Marvel, and justifiably so!

I tried to find some examples in my scans folder, but I keep forgetting that I have so many files in there I can never find anything on purpose. However, I did finda little gem from ASM Annual 18 (plot Tom DeFalco, writer Stan Lee, pencils by Ron Frenz, cover date 1984) which I'm sharing with you now. In a way it's good that I'm posting this today, because it's a nice antidote to the ridiculousness with Peter and Jameson going on right now.





And now I challenge you all -- bring on the Spider-Butt!

I too have been shocked about the lack of Spidey butt shots.

I'm afraid I only have this manipulation of the real reason for Civil War:

[skalja]

It's SO TRUE. And I encourage you to post it on its own that all may admire its glory.

ETA: Any idea where the original is from? That doesn't look like Steve Niven's Civil War art.

I hope someone else can provide details, I've had this from back in s_d 1.0.

Oh, I see you took a cut of Peter web-bombing Johnny also -- but you decided to cut out the tee-heeing MJ behind him. I hate you and your superior talent Nice job! :)

[skalja]

Thanks! I'm just getting back into icon-making, so I appreciate your kind words.

MJ is actually standing just off-panel. I LOVE Web of Romance to the depths of my soul, and I love Corey Walker's art, but I think she looks a bit strange in that issue. But here's a Pete/MJ icon to make up for it. Love yours, too, btw!

[retro_nouveau]

Nice! I'm trotting out my old ones. Time for me to start showing Marvel some love, I think.

So MJ is off-panel? I must have gotten this icon from a different image?

Either way, I can still hear Johhny ranting... XD

[skalja]

I just double-checked (in case there was one of those Xerox'ed panels that are so trendy these days), and you're right, she's right behind them. I have absolutely ZERO memory of 'shopping her out. O_o

Joe Q clearly got to you!
