One Perfect Moment: Ultimate Spider-Man

[cyberghostface]

As much as I'm liking Miles Morales, I really miss (Ultimate) Peter Parker. He was probably one of Bendis' best characters.

There's so many great moments with him but one of my favorites is this hilarious scene in Ultimate Spider-Man #12.

Basically Peter has gone after the Kingpin after finding out that his uncle's murderer was once employed by him. The Kingpin finally confronts him at the conclusion of the story and we get the following exchange...

I was hoping this would be the scene when I saw the e-mail notification. :D

Third page is down, BTW. :(

[cyberghostface]

Oh crap I used Imgur again...let me fix it. :(

I love how it looks like Spidey's eyes look like they're closed behind the eyeholes, it just looks so anime like, fits Pete so well.

[darth_cloudo]

I didn't realize those were his eyes - I thought they were the reflection off of the lenses. Now that you mention it, it does seem to fit him.

[drmcninja]

It is the lenses, but the eyes do fit really well.

And now, of course, I can't unsee it.

[glprime]

Nor can I, Doctor.

Wonderful moment, you can HEAR Fisk's blood pressure going through the roof.

[filkertom]

Absolutely one of the best, and funniest, moments of the whole series.

(I followed that book until Gwen was killed, and then I dropped it like a hot rock. Bringing her back did not help; I thought it was completely unnecessary, and very badly done.)

[thehood]

Your loss, the book was still great even after that.

A bunch of guys @CBR were just talking about this scene. The fact that he actually had the jokes written down kills me.

[nefrekeptah]

Aw, that's only the first part of the scene. I like the whole thing - especially the part where Spider-Man tells Fisk that as much as he hates the Kingpin, he's got something so much better in store then just fighting him.

[shadur]

There is not a single thing in these pages that is not perfect.

My favourite ever Ultimate Spider-Man moment is still this page:



Kills me every time.

[yvonmukluk]

Oh god, I never noticed Kingpin's face in the bottom panel. He looks so pleased.

[nomadicwriter]

That's my favourite bit. Everybody else gets the life startled out of them, and Kingpin's just sitting there like, "Ah. Satisfying." Cracks me up.

[yvonmukluk]

'That shatterproof glass was worth every cent.'

[eyz]

Classic Ult. Spidey at his best :D

[thatnickguy]

This really was one of the best scenes in the series. Though I also liked the one where he webbed Fisk's feet to the floor when they were sitting down together.

Hey! This is the guy that did the Death of Spidey Motion Comic from a while ago!

Check out 3:50 of this vid of my voice acting demo! As a practice run to Death of Spidey, I actually recorded this Kingpin scene as Ultimate Spidey as it's one of my absolute fave moments too!!

Thought y'all would dig hearing it!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I said it once, I said it twice, and I'll say it again. The Kingpin arc is one of my all time favorite Ultimate Spider-Man story arcs and this is one of the reasons why.
