So this is what happens when a revolution deposes the ruler of R'lyeh. From Priest-King of an entire species to slumming in the sewers.

[sherkahn]

Or Peter could take on a Japanese version of his disguise and keep his yap shut.

[halialkers]

But that requires good writing in a Spider-Man story.

[darkblade]

But he doesn't have an alien transformation device or a giant robot. How could he be Japanese Spider-Man?

Do you know what the source of this scan is from?

[fyborg23]

It looks like it's from the newspaper comic strip of "Spiderman". Dunno on the date of this strip, though.

- Call upon the spirits, become a kind of Jorōgumo, but male....
- Use the spirit jewel,
- call upon the power of the cosmic spider web above the universal rose
- use the right hand-sign combos
- pull out a piece of paper that says "now you are a spider" in mystic secret kanji,
- trade places with the invisible spider-oni that only Peter could see...

the usual stuff like that.

Oh Stan Lee, you creepy out of date dude you.

[darkblade]

I was specifically refering to this ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MxGtH-2duM ) Spider-Man but those work too I guess.

Just a reminder that you always need to mention the source in the original post, no matter how obvious you think it might be.

MJ and May will soon regret their decision to join the cast of Slither 2...

And a second reminder that any scan/image from a recent comic is a spoiler and should be behind a cut.

And a third that the maximum size for a pre-cut image is 400px x 300px and this image is well over the maximum allowed width.

Please reacquaint yourself with the posting rules.

Re: Mod note

[cyberghostface]

Wait, a newspaper comic counts as a "recent comic spoiler"?

Re: Mod note

[cyberghostface]

I mean, I put it under the cut, but I wasn't aware that newspaper strips were under the same guidelines of recent issues.

Re: Mod note

[angelophile]

It is a comic. It is the most recent strip. So, yes.

And even if that wasn't the case it was also unsourced and the pre-cut image was oversized.

That's three posting violations in one post, following on from another post where we've also had cause to warn you about violating the posting rules.

Read the note given there.

[mistervader]

Why do they like doing that split-face thing with the newspaper comics?

[psychopathicus_rex]

Wait - is he ACTUALLY in Japan, or is this still in New York? Going by the last of these that was posted, it could be one of the Mole Man's tricks.

Spidey once worked for a Japanese TV show. And he brought a souvenir

Re: Mod note

[kingrockwell]

When we're dealing with a longtime persistent fouler, getting the poster to stop bending and ignoring the rules for once may take a bit of precedence over appearing to be "kind and understanding".
Your comment here is ridiculous, what are you even trying to accomplish with this?

Re: Mod note

[cyberghostface]

Look, I'm not deliberately trying to sabotage or bend the rules. In this case, I honestly had no idea that a daily newspaper comic strip was subject to the same rules as an actual comicbook, but when I was informed, I changed it.

Re: Mod note

[kingrockwell]

I might be more sympathetic if stuff like this didn't come up so often. Sometimes erring on the side of caution is the safe bet.

u mad? lol.
