Never gets old.

Great moment, though given his height, build and (presumably) voice... how old did she THINK he was?

That being said, his "Oh PLEASE LET THE UNIVERSE WORK FOR ME AT LEAST THIS ONE TIME!" face as the mask comes off, followed by his puckering up (and is that an actual ZIT on his nose?) face is perfect!

[crinos]

Well in that picture they look like they're about the same height. So maybe she just assumed he was a short, wiry man.

Also: Vomit went right on his junk.

Still, its better than how Felicia handled it in the 616 universe, where Felicia and Pete were the same age and Felicia was off put by the fact he was a nerd under the mask.

[starwolf_oakley]

Actually, IIRC, it was less Felica thinking "Peter Parker is a nerd" and more "Peter Parker is so... Ordinary."

Looking at them, with Felicia leaning forward still towering over Peter, I'd say she's about three or four inches taller than he is.

Apparently skintight bodysuits are really concealing in the Ultimate Universe. Remember when a reporter concluded the new Spider-Man was Miles Morales's dad, in spite of the two-foot height difference?

[akodo_rokku]

Ultimate Betty Brandt was a pretty awful reporter. And person.

[rainspirit]

She was a pretty awful person in 616 as well, wasn't she? At least in the old days.

[filthysize]

Yeah, Bagley drew him with acne here. He didn't in any other scene, of course, but he did in this one to add to the comedy. I'm not wild on his art, but he always nailed USM's funny scenes with the body language.

[rainspirit]

So what happened to Felicia in the Ultimate universe? It's been a long time since I've read anything from there.

[cyberghostface]

She's still around, she helped Spider-Man with Mysterio.

[rainspirit]

I just wondered since I don't remember seeing her reaction to Peter Parker's death...

[ablackraptor]

Last panel, his face, god that's just such a Peter face. God he looks like he needs a hug right then.

[simiansyndicate]

That's the face that says "Yup, she puked right on my boner."

[crinos]

That's pretty much Pete's life in a nutshell. A long precession of beautiful women puking on his boner.

[mortimerwclankitybritches]

That is a truly beautiful metaphor right there

[crinos]

I try.

[icon_uk]

It's certainly... memorable.

[thatnickguy]

And that, my friends, is what some call "Parker luck."

[doodleboy]

Kind of wished Peter and Felicia talked afterwards... would've been awkward....

age on both of them?

[gwhh]

How old is peter parker suppose to be here and how old is the black cat suppose to be?

Re: age on both of them?

[cyberghostface]

Peter's 15-16 and Felicia here is probably mid-20s to 30s.

Re: age on both of them?

[gwhh]

Thanks. Great comic, but the puking thing was a BIT over the top!!!

[halloweenjack]

And, sadly, Ultimate Peter never had another boner again for the remainder of his abbreviated life.

this from number of 85 of Ultimate Spider-Man NOT 86!!!
