  1. Thanks BOM - just looked her up - I can see why!
  2. Does anyone want to talk about pence variants tonight?
  3. Does anyone want to talk about Australian variants tonight?
  4. Yeah, but look, he's got this big wheel thing and it can go along with him in it, right? I mean if that ain't the definition of danger then I don't know what is?
  5. Imagine both in the same issue! Oh, wait.....
  6. Whatever happened to Garry Bushell? He was the sort who would ask questions like "how many posts does it take for a thread to become popular around here?" Garry Bushell......
  7. I log out for 10 minutes to eat me dinner, log back in and my thread has been hijacked by the rat pack! ? I quite like that actually
  8. Laid Back Marmot.... Angry Vole.... We only need Sanguine Stoat and we've got a new super team!
  9. Quite right too. I like Ken. And you can't beat an angry vole!
  10. The art in the Dave Stevens piece is superb. The girl on the left is stunning, and the art stands out in quality from the right hand side of the page (which is also excellent of course). Do you think Dave would have 'copied' the girl from a photo or at least used a picture for inspiration? If he drew her from memory alone he must be a genius.
  11. 186 onwards killed it for me as a kid, for obvious reasons. The sheer disappointment never left me. I can get the 161 theory now as an adult, but 176-180 are too ingrained in my mind as cherished boyhood memory inducing pieces of wonder. Spidey was right for his time - the 60's to 70's. Putting to one side the fact that super heroes aren't real, Spidey could not exist today. His identity wouldn't last a nanosecond. When Marvel try a reboot, it doesn't work because they struggle to find a place for him in the modern world. What I read now, not only do I not like, I don't recognise it as Spider-Man. So there are great issues and arcs above 186, and a good few donkeys below 186, but 1-185 are the Amazing Spider-Man. End of message.
