How does spidy stick to walls?
I think it's got something to do with increased electrostatic attraction at the point of contact. Controlled by conscious effort. There's some debate about whether he can do it with his shoes on (though he wears boots as Spider-man, so I've always been sort of wtf about that)
Alex's Father
how did the incident to do with Gwen Stacy that time really make Spidey feel?
Bad, but I suppose he felt good about feeling bad, since it's what he does best. Or at least if he dint feel good, his writers did, cos there's nothin' makes a good comic like a spidey-man internal bitchin' and moanin' thought-bubble…
In what issue of Spiderman ('Amazing' or otherwise) did The Punisher orginally appear?
Amazing Spider-man 129: "The Punisher Strikes Twice". 1974.
Who or what is Madam Web
Blind, crippled psychic. Name's Cassandra Webb.
Curtis Connors is really angry about the drugs he's taking, but a)what are the drugs called? And b)what's the name of his wife?
a) Pass - don't know. b) Martha. She's dead.
why is the so-called 'Spider-Slayer' so intent on it's goal?
Okay, 1) because Jonah Jameson was paying for it, 2) because Spencer Smythe got radiation poisoning from making them and he wanted revenge, 3) because Alistair Smythe, Spencer's kid, wanted revenge for the death of his dad
What's going to happen at the end of the new movie?
All blowed up
And finally, why, if Spidey is a scientific genius, is he wasting his time teaching physics to the yout' in the US education system? Much better if he killed them, I feel. Far better if he murdered them all.
Because with great powers come great responsibility. And "A Spider-man does not kill". Except baddies sometimes. But only accidentally. Most times.
What is Hammerhead's real name?
Never been revealed. He was going around as Mr. H one time…
Who was responsible for Pete having six arms that time?'
He done tried to drug the spider powers out of himself, and he got four more arms. Then he got some o' dat Morbius blood and cured hisself.
In what issue of the Spectacular, the Amazing, the Ultimate, was there a strong suggestion that Spidey was about to embark on a dark love affair with his clone?
Web of twitchy creepo romance 4 (variant cover)
(For an extra point; what was his clone called?)
He's had clones called Spidercide, Ben Reilly and Kaine, but none of them swing that way (heh)
Wouldn't things be so much easier if Pete simply accepted the fact that Aunt May is an old woman, who has lived a full, if sometimes stressful, and also a lot of the time very tiring, life?
Yes.
The Hobgoblin. What was that all about?
Wanting to do the green goblin but not being allowed to until the time was right for the kind of comeback (with clones!) that would make even fourteen year olds look up and say "this is fuckn shit!"
The High Evil-lutionary
1) What issue did Spiderman create and use his Spider-Armour? Which villains did he fight?
Web of Spiderman 100. He fought Blood Rose, Gauntlet, Eel, Plant-Man, Tangle, Dragon-Man, Super-Adaptoid, The Dreadnaught, and The Vanisher.
2) In order of appearance list all known symbiote wearing superbeings.
Spider-Man, Venom, Carnage, Toxin
3) Clone Saga...discuss.
Pete's clone comes back and they don't know which one is the original Peter. The Jackal comes back too. So does Carrion. A bunch of clones of Peter turn up. Every time you think you've got it straight, they change it. Pete goes away. The 'clone' sticks around and takes over spidey's job. His name's Ben. Mary jane has a baby. The green goblin comes back and claims responsibility for all of it. Aunt May dies. The baby is kidnapped and NEVER MENTIONED AGAIN. The Ben clone dies. Everyone looks away, embarrassed.
Alex's Father
Who were the original 'Secret Six'?
You mean the sinister six? Doc Ock, Vulture, Sandman, Electro, Mysterio, Kraven.
And why did they change?
They got their arses handed to them.
Hector Lima
how come Spidey's eyes blinked in the 70s cartoon?
Magic.
why hasn't anybody been succesful in reproducing the webfluid formula? it was invented by a kid in regular Marvelverse, damnit.
Magic again. This is why sam raimi went with the webs coming out of pete's wrists, cos the whole 'I invented them' is too dumb. Not like spider-sense, which is cool.
Tangent: off in the early days, lots of villains used the spider sense frequency to communicate in a way that only spidey could hear. Dr Doom did it and the Chameleon too - do they do that anymore these days? I thought it was cool…
Boboss
What's the name of the formula that gave Ultimate Spidey his powers?
Hah? It was a spider wot bit him, no? But if I had to guess, it'd be the Osborn formula. But it was a gen. mod. Spider, anyway. No formula there…
Moonfrog1
Which creator came up with the idea for Spidey to have web-shooters?
Ditko, I'm guessing…
What was Richard and Mary Parker's occupation at the time of their death?
They were spies. Can't remember if they were CIA or SHIELD…
Amazing Spider-Man 196 - 200 saw the first 'Death of Aunt May'. However this turned out to be an elaborate ploy by which two villians?
Um - Mysterio and The Kingpin?
Where did Uncle Ben work when he first met Aunt May?
At a sideshow carnival, as a carnival barker
Which of these girls did Pete not date; Betty Brant, Glory Grant, Debra Whitman or Liz Allan?
Liz?
The Daily Bugle office is situated on the corner of which two streets?
Ya got me
What's the Chameleon's real name?
Dmitri Smerdyakov
What's the Sandman's real name?
Flint Marko
Who is Mark Raxton AKA The Molten Man's stepsister?
That's Liz Allan again.
Where was Richard Fisk (later revealed to be the Schemer) on holiday when he faked his own death?
dunno.
Who performed the ceremony at Pete and M's wedding?
Ya got me again.
Mario
Here's an easy one. Who did Spidey battle first?
First superbaddy was the Chameleon. First fight with a superdude was the Fantastic Four (Ben Grimm took point, I think). First fight at all was against Crusher Hogan in the wrestling match.

How many people have worn the Spider-Man (or Spider Woman) costume/carried the Spider-Man (or Spider Woman) name in the comics?
Damn, off the top of my head:
There's, like, four spider-women, one spider-girl, there's been two spider-men in the straight continuity… flash Thompson put it on for one issue around no. 5 of Amazing, then the Indian guy, Spidey 2099, the spidermen in Universe X and the 1602 universe… does each what if count as an appearance? Cos there was one issue where Betty Brant, Flash T and John Jameson became spider man (I think JJ was 'Spider-Jameson' or some such…)
Inspector Spyder's on the Case
1.)Discuss your favorite Spider-Man story/storyarc, its major plot details, and why you consider it to be your favorite in 300 words or less.
The Master Planner Arc. Spidey fights Doc Ock to get some medicine that will cure Aunt May after being poisoned by a blood transfusion of Spidey's blood and then gets stuck under a big piece of cool Ditko machinery, then lifts it off, all tense and rendered, then pounds the crap through everyone and it's the first time he's all "shut the fuck up" with everyone. Ditko's art is at its pinnacle at this point in time.
2.)Including the original spider bite, how many times and to what degree has Peter Parker mutated? What abilities did he gain or loose? Extra Credit, which one do you think is the stupidest and why?
Um - there was the six arms one, and at least one where he turned intoa were-spider, then the latest one in the Other. Which is the stupidest. Because it's the worst writing and art I've ever seen in a spiderman comic.
3.)How many clones of Peter Parker have been made?
Hm. Ben, Kaine, Spidercide, the one that just disintegrated as a plot device… um - five?
4.)Which of these four women did not appear in the 90's Spider-Man Saturday cartoon: Betty Brant, Gwen Stacy, Liz Allan, or Debra Whitman?
Deb?
5.)Who was the first person to be "revealed" as the Hobgoblin?
Philip J. Macendale is the name appearing in my head, but oh - I get it. You mean Flash Thompson. But it was a frameup.
6.)Vincent Stegron (of "Stegron, the Dinosaur Man" fame") is a former assistant of who?
Curt Connors?
7.)Spider-Man has known lots of infamous mob enforcers over the years, but which one got superpowers at an Osborn Chemical Plant and is also secretly illiterate?
Hammerhead, I'm guessing
8.) Name every alias Richard Fisk used before his mum did the smart thing and killed his stupid ass.
He was the Schemer, and The Rose, and then Sergeant Blume (get it? ) and then The Blood Rose. Can't think of any others.
9.)"The Shocker" is a bit of a misnomer, as he doesn't electrocute anything. What do the Shocker's fancy gloves actually do?
They make with the vibratey.
10.)Who killed Uncle Ben (Flint Marko is not an acceptable answer)? And what happened to that money he was looking for?
Name's never been revealed. He's usually called 'the burglar'. Don't know about the money.

MJ's eyes are supposed to be green, yet the colour is often inconsistent. Match the artist to the colour that isn't green. So whoever drew them brown, whoever drew them blue, etc, etc.
Oh, shut up. |
