	I kinda do up until the point that I remember that this is the guy who's since sold his soul to the devil. It really has tainted the character forever for me. And that makes me sad. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	As a defence mechanism, my brain thinks of BND-Spidey and pre-BND-Spidey as different characters altogether. It's the only thing that makes sense. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I wish I could, but like I say, tainted across the board now. I haven't picked up any of my old Spider-man trades in months. I wish I could separate things out like that and not be irritated by the present continuity, but I am. Damnit. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I still say Spidey making a deal with Mephisto is part of some major xanatos gambit set up by Dr. strange to totally mess with Mephisto's lawn. (Reply to this) (Parent)

There is a cure for that tainted feeling...

He was under the influence of a magic spell.
He was under the influence of alcohol.
Dr. Octopus slipped some LSD in his lunchables. It was a bad trip, man...
It was just a nightmare. (Stan Lee thinks so, why not us?)
It was another clone.
It was a Doombot.
It was a descecration.

Whatever it was, it was not Spider-Man.

I have not read BND, so it means nothing to me. Neither have you...neither have you...you have not read BND... yes, keep your eyes on the spinning watch... you are getting sleepy...

(the mysterious commenter, a man with no livejournal account, begins to chant slowly, softly)

By kukedaarwyn, sym'nsonwalt, brubak'red, and timmber'uuse...

(the mysterious stranger's voice rises, and takes on an unearthly resonance)

...by Three Knights of Darkness -- Conroy Silvertongue, He-Who-Shouts-At-Stagehands and the Prince of Camp -- by the Shadow and the Spider, by Astroboy and Tin-Tin's Dog, by all that is good and true and decent in the Realm of Les Bande Dessinées, by their inspiration do I speak! I call upon the unspeakable power of Watterson the Humane! I summon the Great Pumpkin -- arise in all your sincerity!

(Your entranced mind slowly becomes aware of a red cape billowing about him, as the Fanboy Supreme reveals his true form. He is now hovering, his feet an inch above the ground, showing contempt for gravity and for the current editorial direction of Marvel comics. He extends his hands toward you, forming the sign of kohanim with each hand. The air crackles, snaps and pops. He continues, his voice booming...)

Now shall the Crimson Bands of Kirby-rak enfold you, the All-Seeing Eye of Nuffsaid expose the darkness that infects you, and the Oracle of Simone lead you along other paths though hypertime (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertime). By the power of the Ever-Changing Ball of Kalvin, open your weary eyes and see that canon is naught but what you imagine it to be. This do I know: Rogers lives, Doom has no master, and Spider-Man loves Mary Jane!

Oh you lies most vile, return to the hell from which you came! All good people laugh you to scorn. To the fetid mind of Quesada do I banish you! Descend, and tell the lies yet to come that the ire of fangirls and fanboys does not sleep. Begone!

(A blinding light, a thunderclap. When your vision returns, you see the Fanboy Supreme is slumped over, leaning against the wall. He seems to have conjured himself a glass of scotch.)

Whew. There. If that won't do it, nothing will.

	Err...why is Captain America's shield reflecting is actual face (in a goofy expression no less) in the first place? Dream sequence I'm guessing? Even then.... (Reply to this)

	I'm assuming here. D'awwww, poor Spidey. (Reply to this)

	I'm guessing this is a dream sequence, in which case I love how all the background detail leaves as it comes to an end. I also love that Peter's dream has Cap's Shield reflecting the truth, which makes kind of a mythic sense. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	IIRC, this is from the same "dream sequence" issue that also has JJJ beating up Spidey and suddenly having big, Geraldo Rivera-style hair. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Could you give us an issue citation? (Because I can't remember what book this is from.) (Reply to this) (Thread)
