Rejected Spider-Man Origin Cover

Not really. Did you know it's Spider-Man's 50th anniversary! For years, I've heard people mention that if Spider-Man does whatever a Spider can, then he would shoot web out his butt. I recently noticed that if you switch the places of Spider-Man and the Thug on AF #15 (his first appearance) you essentially have the poses you need to make this concept work...

Yes, it's a filmsy reason for me to draw it, but a friend of mine thought it would be funny, so here we are.

  1. That is very funny Kerry. You really got the Ditko look down there too.

    1. Except that cover is by Jack Kirby, not Steve Ditko.

  2. The Ventures Bros. have examined this issue. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o12YySfp25A

  3. HA! I'm not surprised. Thanks for the link. I don't know why I don't watch the Venture Bros. more often....

  4. Also, with the added bonus of Spider-Man not shooting the webbing straight out of his butt.
