We're talking about something really cool and it 0:00:29.640 --> 0:00:33.840 was very cool area and the zeit geist right now. 0:00:33.960 --> 0:00:37.120 You know, as soon everybody will be watching a movie 0:00:37.200 --> 0:00:40.720 featuring this fella. They're gonna be watching it today, possibly 0:00:41.159 --> 0:00:44.760 when this episode drops. It's very true. Yeah, perfect time. 0:00:44.800 --> 0:00:47.559 It's almost like we set this up in our schedule 0:00:48.479 --> 0:00:54.000 today we're talking about Spider Man. No, I thought I confused. 0:00:54.040 --> 0:00:57.240 I thought we were talking about pretty little lives. I 0:00:57.240 --> 0:00:59.440 have thought that that was what we were doing. So 0:00:59.560 --> 0:01:03.280 weird joined by you remember him from the Punisher episode. 0:01:03.320 --> 0:01:06.279 He is a host on Collider Heroes and also Comic 0:01:06.319 --> 0:01:11.440 book Shopping. It's Coy Jon Drowsy, Spider Man's my boy. 0:01:12.400 --> 0:01:14.880 Oh yeah, like your Spider Man shirt. This was just 0:01:14.920 --> 0:01:19.480 a coin. I'm always ready and your Spider Man okay, 0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:24.640 head like and it's double sided. Yeah, this is the 0:01:24.680 --> 0:01:28.119 tattoo I'm getting right here. It's around the bend. Once 0:01:28.160 --> 0:01:30.960 a network allows me to have a forearmed tattoo. I'm 0:01:31.000 --> 0:01:32.480 getting that back. I feel like you could do that 0:01:32.520 --> 0:01:35.760 at Collider. Yeah. Well I'm worried about one siment, like 0:01:36.000 --> 0:01:39.479 you know, like the next place. So that was cool 0:01:39.480 --> 0:01:42.400 on the internet, but I mean I had to network. 0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:46.280 I had these dbz ones at the Aladdin premiere when 0:01:46.280 --> 0:01:49.600 I was hosting, didn't they weren't covered? That's true, that's 0:01:49.640 --> 0:01:52.160 the line. Yeah, it's so like, this is such an 0:01:52.200 --> 0:01:54.040 aggressive spot and that's where I'm going to it and 0:01:54.040 --> 0:01:58.640 I'll be like, what a posting. I'm so serious. This 0:01:58.680 --> 0:02:01.920 is forever like dead. I think the only thing would 0:02:01.920 --> 0:02:03.600 be like if you went over to if you were 0:02:03.640 --> 0:02:08.600 hosting at d C. That's although Chris McKay, who I'm 0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:12.160 friends with, he has a Captain America big tattoo on 0:02:12.280 --> 0:02:16.280 his forearm. He has the shield and he directed Lego Batman. 0:02:16.480 --> 0:02:20.120 So you're more accepting society. So I think he's you're allowed. 0:02:20.200 --> 0:02:22.560 You know, you're you grow up a nerd, You're you're 0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:24.639 influenced by both. Yeah, you want to brand yourself. You 0:02:24.639 --> 0:02:28.519 should be allowed to freedom and branding, So go for it. Yeah, 0:02:28.600 --> 0:02:30.160 I think I think it's it's a real already pick 0:02:30.160 --> 0:02:32.200 the artist. I've already got decisions made. It's just making 0:02:32.200 --> 0:02:35.640 the commitment, commitment. It's real intense, it's forever. Yeah. But 0:02:35.720 --> 0:02:38.520 Spider Man is actually tied to Punisher, so I thought 0:02:38.560 --> 0:02:40.160 it was perfect that came on because he punish your 0:02:40.200 --> 0:02:43.160 debut in the pages of Spiderman. Oh yes, yeah, Oh 0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:47.000 my gosh. We're bringing it back, going backwards. It's retroactively 0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:50.400 relevant to my guessing. So we have been starting our 0:02:50.400 --> 0:02:52.640 podcast with what people are geeking out about? What are 0:02:52.680 --> 0:02:55.119 you seeking out about this week? So this is shameless 0:02:55.240 --> 0:02:57.840 and there's a bit of a bias considering the subject matter. 0:02:57.919 --> 0:03:01.200 But your Boy saw Far from Home, and I've been 0:03:01.240 --> 0:03:05.040 speaking out about it since the moment it started playing, 0:03:05.160 --> 0:03:07.080 and then the moment the credits rolled, I would have 0:03:07.120 --> 0:03:09.520 loved if they just pressed play again. Uh. And I 0:03:09.560 --> 0:03:12.440 saw it after flying internationally and I still had my suitcases. 0:03:12.480 --> 0:03:14.440 We were running so behind. I brought my stuff and 0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:17.400 it's a very hard like thing to be excited while 0:03:17.520 --> 0:03:19.600 that jet lagged, and it was that good that I was. 0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:22.200 And I also have a Spider Man suitcase because shamelessness, 0:03:22.320 --> 0:03:24.320 so I brought my Spidy suitcase to the screening in 0:03:24.400 --> 0:03:26.680 London of Spiderman and I was in love from the 0:03:26.760 --> 0:03:29.680 jump to the end, and uh, I haven't stopped thinking 0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:31.440 about it. And it's if you guys are listening to 0:03:31.440 --> 0:03:34.320 this on Tuesday, I hope you've either already seen it. 0:03:34.360 --> 0:03:36.240 We're not gonna do spoilers, but I hope you've either 0:03:36.280 --> 0:03:38.280 already seen it already have your tickets, because it is 0:03:38.480 --> 0:03:42.200 shockingly important to see it without knowing anything. I think 0:03:42.240 --> 0:03:45.680 the only thing I want to know is is there 0:03:45.680 --> 0:03:50.120 post credits? Yes? Okay, well that should we say, of course, 0:03:50.400 --> 0:03:53.040 but you know, after in game, maybe they're like, we're 0:03:53.080 --> 0:03:56.080 done with this, We've changed, We're done with that. I 0:03:56.120 --> 0:03:58.400 will I will even say not only are there two 0:03:58.440 --> 0:04:01.120 post credits, but between the two, and I won't say 0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:05.760 which one one of them is my personal favorite, maybe 0:04:05.760 --> 0:04:09.840 of all time. I don't know it all right, that's 0:04:09.840 --> 0:04:12.640 all we'll say. Somebody I know, I know somebody's like 0:04:12.680 --> 0:04:16.440 fingers digging into right now because there's people was like, 0:04:16.440 --> 0:04:20.160 you're just too close. Yeah, like some people like that spoiler. 0:04:20.240 --> 0:04:24.240 What's his favorite? What would he love? What are you 0:04:24.320 --> 0:04:27.680 geeking out about today? I'm I'm seeking out about I 0:04:27.720 --> 0:04:30.000 was sent to this book. Yeah, I have a book. 0:04:30.120 --> 0:04:33.359 I have a book. It was written by Sarah Fader 0:04:33.480 --> 0:04:37.719 and her son Ari. It's about well Sarah is. She's 0:04:37.760 --> 0:04:41.760 the founder of a mental health nonprofit organization called Stigma Fighters, 0:04:42.320 --> 0:04:45.440 and her and her son wrote this book called Nobody, 0:04:45.600 --> 0:04:48.240 and it's essentially about when you feel like nobody. And 0:04:48.279 --> 0:04:50.960 it's really cute and it has illustrations in it and 0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:53.920 a nobody dog and it talks about being a somebody. 0:04:54.080 --> 0:04:56.240 So I highly recommend it, and also all the work 0:04:56.320 --> 0:04:58.919 that she's done in the mental health community. That's what 0:04:58.960 --> 0:05:01.760 I'm geeking out about super dope. Um, I mean, since 0:05:01.760 --> 0:05:05.200 we're all shamelessly plugging, I'm getting out about the new 0:05:05.240 --> 0:05:09.960 Corsair Night Sword r GB mouse. They sent it to me. 0:05:10.000 --> 0:05:12.320 It's their newest mouse. It's kind of similar to the 0:05:12.440 --> 0:05:14.960 M sixty five, where it has weights that you can 0:05:15.000 --> 0:05:17.040 adjust the weight to it. I'm a light boy, so 0:05:17.080 --> 0:05:19.480 I didn't add any of the weights. But it's bigger, 0:05:19.680 --> 0:05:21.920 so it's good for bigger hands. But it kind of 0:05:22.160 --> 0:05:23.920 has that same kind of IN sixty five kind of 0:05:23.960 --> 0:05:26.520 fat or FPS shaped to it, but you can add 0:05:26.560 --> 0:05:29.920 six different variable weights to it. And uh yeah, I've 0:05:29.920 --> 0:05:32.200 been getting collaps online with it if you want to, 0:05:32.320 --> 0:05:33.480 if you want to check it out, if you want 0:05:33.480 --> 0:05:37.480 to buy it. We'll have my special Corsair link in 0:05:37.520 --> 0:05:39.960 the in the footnotes for you to click and go. 0:05:40.480 --> 0:05:41.920 Just go ahead and use that link if you need 0:05:41.960 --> 0:05:45.480 a new headphones, keyboards, mice. Just you know, I get 0:05:45.520 --> 0:05:47.520 a little kick back, of course, but also you know, 0:05:47.800 --> 0:05:50.640 I am a fan of the brand. Like I I 0:05:50.720 --> 0:05:53.600 begged Corsair to sponsor me, not the other way around. 0:05:53.839 --> 0:05:57.039 That's how much I love the sales. So it's been vetted. No, yeah, 0:05:57.040 --> 0:05:59.280 it's been vetted, because that's all how I always want 0:05:59.279 --> 0:06:01.560 to do anything sponsored for Like, I'd much rather go 0:06:01.680 --> 0:06:04.640 after the company and be like that's because I like 0:06:04.720 --> 0:06:07.200 you so much, versus being like, hey, we're gonna pay 0:06:07.240 --> 0:06:09.320 you and say you like it yeah, because it's really 0:06:09.320 --> 0:06:11.560 like you can feel that insecure, especially if you don't like, 0:06:11.600 --> 0:06:14.359 really know the product. I always think like Box Lunch clothes, 0:06:14.400 --> 0:06:16.600 do you gut you guys know Box Lunch? Yeah, Box 0:06:16.680 --> 0:06:19.320 Lunch donates ten dollars out of every fifty to feeding 0:06:19.360 --> 0:06:21.880 local homeless, So it's helping people in our community, and 0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:24.440 it's helping the homeless directly, and it's awesome branded merch. 0:06:24.760 --> 0:06:26.280 So like when I want to buy a Deadpool or 0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:28.040 Spider Man shut, I go there and so of just 0:06:28.160 --> 0:06:30.680 generally buying clothes and I'll pend, I'll spend a little 0:06:30.680 --> 0:06:32.440 bit more. But I know it's directly helping not just 0:06:32.480 --> 0:06:34.400 the community but my community. And I think that's a 0:06:34.400 --> 0:06:37.080 really good way to spend branded content because we're already 0:06:37.080 --> 0:06:39.240 selling out to the point where, like I'm talking about tattoo, 0:06:39.480 --> 0:06:42.440 I'd rather sell out for a good cost. Yeah. I mean, 0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:46.040 while we got you here, te public dot com slash, 0:06:46.120 --> 0:06:47.960 you know this, this will just be the shill hour. 0:06:49.320 --> 0:06:51.320 I mean you are already here. I imagine that you 0:06:51.320 --> 0:06:54.240 have your laptop open. You're like, oh, it's summer, the 0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:57.000 steam summer sales going on. Why why not just buy 0:06:57.000 --> 0:07:03.039 some other stone? Yeah? But yeah, yeah, that's that's what 0:07:03.120 --> 0:07:05.840 we're nerding out about. And now it's time to talk 0:07:05.920 --> 0:07:10.480 about Spider Man, the spiner Man. Mr Peter Radio. Do 0:07:10.520 --> 0:07:19.280 you spiner Man Narrow? We did an episode on that, right, 0:07:19.360 --> 0:07:21.880 just the animated series, right, we know we didn't. I 0:07:21.920 --> 0:07:25.040 thought we did an episode. Not we did an episode 0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:29.880 of Miles Morales. Yeah. Um, so you do you have 0:07:29.960 --> 0:07:33.400 the original Spider Man comic. So I'm thirty eight no. 0:07:33.600 --> 0:07:36.320 Thirty six issues from every Spiderman ever in print, so 0:07:36.520 --> 0:07:39.280 every run, every title, every cover, every annual, every mini series. 0:07:39.680 --> 0:07:41.760 Uh so I have sixteen thousand, five hundred and sixty 0:07:41.760 --> 0:07:44.960 two Just Spidy books. Um, yeah, I got a problem. 0:07:45.040 --> 0:07:46.640 And they're all a Excel spreadsheets, so I know the 0:07:46.640 --> 0:07:49.920 exact number. I've got thirty seven long boxes of Just Spidy. 0:07:50.080 --> 0:07:52.440 Keep them in a vault, bagged, boarded and in a 0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:56.360 long box which is sealed, and then thirty back East. 0:07:56.560 --> 0:07:59.160 They're safely in a in a in my parents. My 0:07:59.240 --> 0:08:02.000 parents moved from Boston, which is like living a Cape 0:08:02.000 --> 0:08:03.720 cod to Georgia, where you get a little more room, 0:08:03.880 --> 0:08:05.280 so they don't let me have a full walk in 0:08:05.320 --> 0:08:08.200 closet for my comics because they're the best. So they're 0:08:08.200 --> 0:08:10.720 effectively at a vault. So they're like on the other 0:08:10.760 --> 0:08:13.960 side of the country in a walk in closet sealed. Yeah, 0:08:14.080 --> 0:08:15.840 so they're pretty much in a vault for me, and 0:08:16.000 --> 0:08:18.000 uh I I read the new ones and then every 0:08:18.080 --> 0:08:20.440 hundred issues, I fly a short box back and I 0:08:20.480 --> 0:08:22.160 have a whole system. But I pick up Mood New 0:08:22.200 --> 0:08:24.800 books every Wednesday and everything that's not Spidy x Men 0:08:24.840 --> 0:08:26.880 or Deadpool, I buy digitally because I amount of space, 0:08:27.120 --> 0:08:29.080 So Spidy x Men and Deadpool I buy the physical 0:08:29.120 --> 0:08:30.880 hard copies and then I buy digital of the other 0:08:30.960 --> 0:08:34.720 hundred two books. Issue I read a week. So he's 0:08:34.760 --> 0:08:38.440 like numbers guys, I know, we we if you remember 0:08:38.520 --> 0:08:41.640 on the Punisher episode when Coy was just dropping issue numbers. 0:08:42.720 --> 0:08:45.320 It's so funny because I feel like that I don't 0:08:45.320 --> 0:08:48.600 want to say it's quote unquote dead but like that 0:08:48.720 --> 0:08:51.400 used to be associated to nerd them is like, you know, 0:08:51.559 --> 0:08:54.760 especially with comic book guys, like in Radioactive Man numbers, 0:08:55.800 --> 0:08:57.600 you know, and I feel like there isn't that like 0:08:57.720 --> 0:09:01.640 number of clockage anymore, almost because I feel like too 0:09:01.720 --> 0:09:03.840 many people were using it for evil, you know where 0:09:03.840 --> 0:09:05.800 they you know where they would be like, oh you 0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:09.120 you like, I see you wearing a Spiderman shirt? Tuts, 0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:13.120 So tell me who did he fight in issue one thirteen? 0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:18.840 You know? Okay, honey, which is Harry Jane debut in 0:09:18.920 --> 0:09:21.000 because she's got two issues in her face is hidden? 0:09:21.080 --> 0:09:25.200 When did you say the iconic line say, but so 0:09:25.400 --> 0:09:30.120 it's Spider Man. Is very funny out of all the superheroes, because, like, 0:09:30.240 --> 0:09:33.040 you know, I want to ask you if you couldn't 0:09:33.080 --> 0:09:35.559 even remember when you were first introduced to him, because 0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:37.520 like it could have been on the side of an 0:09:37.520 --> 0:09:41.440 ice cream truck. Like spider Man is the most popular 0:09:42.080 --> 0:09:46.840 Marvel hero, So do you have any recollection when you 0:09:46.880 --> 0:09:50.200 were introduced to him? Todd McFarlane, Spiderman Number two. I 0:09:50.240 --> 0:09:52.960 received my third birthday and I learned to read with Spiderman, 0:09:53.200 --> 0:09:55.840 so my very first like I learned with a comic 0:09:55.880 --> 0:09:57.559 book because there was already drawings and stuff and I 0:09:57.600 --> 0:09:59.840 was able to get context clues. And this is actually 0:10:00.120 --> 0:10:02.120 from that same run. So I'm wearing a shirt representing 0:10:02.120 --> 0:10:05.480 that actually learning to read. Um and we my parents 0:10:05.480 --> 0:10:07.439 were into comics. My dad was into comics. My mom 0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:09.680 was into like the superhero world. She like loved what 0:10:09.720 --> 0:10:12.440 it represented. So my parents were super encouraging the whole time. 0:10:12.480 --> 0:10:14.319 And my dad had a full run of Claremont Burns 0:10:14.360 --> 0:10:16.480 Uncanny X Men, which she gave me like years later, 0:10:16.480 --> 0:10:18.080 which got me into X Men. But Spidey was that 0:10:18.160 --> 0:10:21.840 like approachable everyone can read it. Ironically, Torment is one 0:10:21.840 --> 0:10:23.880 of the few titles that isn't for kids, so I 0:10:23.920 --> 0:10:27.160 read I read this like lizard ripping kids apart book 0:10:27.360 --> 0:10:30.000 to learn to read, and it's like Spider Man Safe 0:10:30.000 --> 0:10:32.439 except for this run. Uh. So I learned to read 0:10:32.440 --> 0:10:33.880 a Spiderman back when he was in the dark and 0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:36.319 gritty phase. And then as I grew up, the Spider 0:10:36.360 --> 0:10:38.760 Man animated series came on and I was the kid 0:10:38.880 --> 0:10:40.920 with the VCR where I broke two because I had 0:10:40.920 --> 0:10:43.040 stopped for the commercials and hit record and I'm like 0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:45.360 playing with the thing. Uh. And then later later on 0:10:45.400 --> 0:10:47.240 they released m in those clamshells. Those are the ones 0:10:47.280 --> 0:10:49.680 that smelled great. Uh, And I bought a bunch of 0:10:49.679 --> 0:10:52.800 those because I was like breaking VCRs. So since I 0:10:52.840 --> 0:10:56.640 could acknowledge television, acknowledge reading or any of that, I've 0:10:56.640 --> 0:10:59.080 been reading. And then once they had him on CD ROM, 0:10:59.120 --> 0:11:01.280 I've been reading the back issues I couldn't have. And 0:11:01.320 --> 0:11:02.880 I have this weird o c D where I don't 0:11:02.920 --> 0:11:04.920 read an issue until I own it. So if it's 0:11:04.920 --> 0:11:07.120 like a five issue that I'm saving up four, once 0:11:07.160 --> 0:11:08.920 I own it, then I'll download the digital and read it. 0:11:08.960 --> 0:11:10.640 But I haven't. I don't let myself touch untill I 0:11:10.679 --> 0:11:12.760 own it, but I won't open the old copies That's 0:11:12.800 --> 0:11:14.960 exactly what I was gonna follow up with. So you 0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:17.880 buy the old copies with no intention to actually cracking 0:11:17.920 --> 0:11:20.320 them open and reading it. If it proceeds in my birthday, 0:11:21.360 --> 0:11:23.720 don't touch it. Actually, I want to stop to bring 0:11:23.800 --> 0:11:26.000 something up to you because I know it's going to 0:11:26.120 --> 0:11:30.959 physically hurt you. Um, will you, for the audience, tell 0:11:31.040 --> 0:11:36.360 us what issue Deadpool first appeared in. So I did 0:11:36.360 --> 0:11:40.160 a show for E three called pre Pre Show where 0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:45.120 our host John Carnage pulled out new mutants and he 0:11:45.160 --> 0:11:49.360 put it on a fishing line on top of this 0:11:49.520 --> 0:11:53.920 like weird goopy soup, and he the guest, who was 0:11:53.960 --> 0:11:58.720 a developer, had to if he would if he guessed 0:11:58.720 --> 0:12:02.440 everything right, he would win the copy. If he guessed 0:12:02.440 --> 0:12:06.440 it wrong, the copy would fall into that goopy stuff. 0:12:07.760 --> 0:12:12.240 And his last name is Carnage is period And they 0:12:12.280 --> 0:12:15.079 did not get it right, and I went. I witnessed 0:12:15.120 --> 0:12:18.520 it dip into a goop the juice and then get 0:12:18.520 --> 0:12:24.200 thrown into a blinter and I was like shocked, but 0:12:24.280 --> 0:12:25.679 there was like a part of me that was like, 0:12:25.720 --> 0:12:27.920 oh man, this is probably fake. And then it was 0:12:27.960 --> 0:12:29.640 like cut and he was like, oh no, I own 0:12:29.720 --> 0:12:33.640 that copy. Audience that you can't see it that I've 0:12:33.679 --> 0:12:35.679 been writhing my hands on the chair and it was 0:12:35.679 --> 0:12:38.760 experience so funny, and I was like, then I know 0:12:38.800 --> 0:12:42.280 what happened. I was like, you bought that. When you 0:12:42.360 --> 0:12:44.000 bought it, like when it came out. I was like yeah, 0:12:44.000 --> 0:12:45.480 And I was like that's the thing is like if 0:12:45.520 --> 0:12:47.600 you buy it, like, if you buy that copy, it's 0:12:47.679 --> 0:12:51.560 never gonna be worth even like if I buy like 0:12:51.640 --> 0:12:53.800 if I bought like Spider Man number one when it 0:12:53.880 --> 0:12:56.319 came out, even years from now, when people like that's 0:12:56.360 --> 0:12:58.520 worth a million dollars, it just will never be It's 0:12:58.559 --> 0:13:01.240 still gonna be worth But yeah, to you, it's always 0:13:01.280 --> 0:13:04.720 so when you're like, what's a crazy bit, you're not 0:13:04.960 --> 0:13:08.040 like even though you know it's so insane, You're like 0:13:08.559 --> 0:13:10.880 you're like, I don't have that so I can have 0:13:10.920 --> 0:13:15.040 the fun of that. But yeah, um, after we record, 0:13:15.040 --> 0:13:17.920 I'll show you the clip and you can see me if. 0:13:21.360 --> 0:13:23.880 I was so uncomfortable because like I was like, because 0:13:23.920 --> 0:13:27.040 you could you, I mean, you know when it's real. 0:13:27.120 --> 0:13:28.640 But part of me and my brain I was like, not, 0:13:28.720 --> 0:13:32.320 it has to be a fake. It's like yeah, and 0:13:32.320 --> 0:13:35.200 he's like, no, it's the original. I was like wow. 0:13:35.440 --> 0:13:37.920 He was like, I don't know. My friend has a 0:13:37.960 --> 0:13:41.640 bunch of the Magic the Gathering Letter worth like fifty dollars, 0:13:41.720 --> 0:13:47.280 like um, yeah, and so he definitely takes those really 0:13:47.320 --> 0:13:49.480 seriously and he's like holding onto it. I think now 0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:52.080 that they announced the Magic Show and he thinks it's 0:13:52.120 --> 0:13:54.080 going to go even more up. So well, I just 0:13:54.120 --> 0:13:57.760 got amazing Spiderman number sixties six, which is an iconic 0:13:57.800 --> 0:14:00.880 mysterio cover, and I got it just happened to find 0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:02.079 it in time for the movie. So it is this 0:14:02.120 --> 0:14:04.079 really cool like kist that I need. So a few 0:14:04.120 --> 0:14:06.120 comments and one appeared in my life right before. But 0:14:06.160 --> 0:14:07.760 it's also going to go up in value after the movie. 0:14:07.800 --> 0:14:09.320 But it also just happened to be in my life 0:14:09.360 --> 0:14:10.880 at the time of the movie. So it's cool because 0:14:10.920 --> 0:14:13.640 I'll remember. It's cool when you have an emotional attachment 0:14:13.679 --> 0:14:15.640 to an issue that you remember later, like I always 0:14:15.679 --> 0:14:17.240 remember right as the movie came out, I got this 0:14:17.280 --> 0:14:18.880 issue with a cover and right and that's what I 0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:20.720 like about buying print copies, Like you don't remember where 0:14:20.720 --> 0:14:23.160 you got your digital copy. You don't remember, like what 0:14:23.280 --> 0:14:24.880 when you hold a book, it feels so much more 0:14:24.920 --> 0:14:27.760 importantly special, and I'll have something to either like loom 0:14:27.840 --> 0:14:29.960 over my kids or put them through college with because 0:14:29.960 --> 0:14:32.080 I won't sell them mom alive. But if they want 0:14:32.080 --> 0:14:33.680 to make that choice as long as I'm dead, that's 0:14:33.720 --> 0:14:37.160 their move. I know there was I have, and it's 0:14:37.200 --> 0:14:39.640 not really worth much because it's a nineties comic. In 0:14:39.720 --> 0:14:43.400 nineties comics aren't worth it much. Anyone who's going through 0:14:43.480 --> 0:14:47.320 like yard sales, just know there was an era. I 0:14:47.360 --> 0:14:49.200 think we do. I don't know if we talk talked 0:14:49.200 --> 0:14:52.560 about in the punch Trap. Yeah, just they just overprinted, 0:14:52.560 --> 0:14:55.400 but I have the original like Cage Run and it's 0:14:55.480 --> 0:14:57.280 from a guy. And did I bring up this story? 0:14:57.280 --> 0:14:59.120 I think I told this story where like it was 0:14:59.160 --> 0:15:01.120 a guy in the community college I met who like 0:15:01.720 --> 0:15:05.200 found out that, you know, his wife couldn't have kids, 0:15:05.200 --> 0:15:06.920 and he was like, well, I planned on giving this 0:15:07.040 --> 0:15:10.360 to my kid, uh and and he was like, so 0:15:10.720 --> 0:15:13.480 I want to give this to you because he found 0:15:13.480 --> 0:15:15.600 out I was a nerd and it was like it's sweet. 0:15:15.640 --> 0:15:17.640 So I don't think I'd ever get rid of it 0:15:17.680 --> 0:15:19.840 because of that like sentimental thing. And that was like 0:15:19.880 --> 0:15:22.240 the probably the nicest thing a nerd has done for me. 0:15:22.360 --> 0:15:24.600 At that point in my life, you know, everything was 0:15:24.640 --> 0:15:28.240 so just collectors. Anyway, we need to talk about Spider Man. 0:15:28.680 --> 0:15:32.720 We've we've been reminiscing. It's hard not to talk about THEE. 0:15:33.480 --> 0:15:36.080 But let's do what we do, which is the normal 0:15:36.120 --> 0:15:38.440 breakdown that I start off with, which is Spider Man 0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:42.040 is a fictional superhero created by writer editor Stanley rest 0:15:42.080 --> 0:15:45.680 in Peace and writer artist Steve Ditko uh rest in 0:15:45.680 --> 0:15:48.400 Peace as well. Uh. He first appeared in the anthology 0:15:48.400 --> 0:15:52.240 comic book Amazing Fantasy number fifteen that dropped in August 0:15:52.320 --> 0:15:54.840 nineteen sixty two, and the Silver Age of comic books. 0:15:55.040 --> 0:15:58.080 He appeared in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, 0:15:58.240 --> 0:16:00.560 as well as a number of movies, television shows, video 0:16:00.560 --> 0:16:03.480 game adaptation set in the Marvel universe, and in these stories, 0:16:03.520 --> 0:16:06.920 Spider Man is the alias of Peter Parker most of 0:16:06.960 --> 0:16:09.480 the time, an orphan raised by his aunt May and 0:16:09.560 --> 0:16:11.800 uncle Ben in New York City after his parents, Richard 0:16:11.840 --> 0:16:14.560 and Mary Parker were killed in a plane crash. Lee 0:16:14.680 --> 0:16:17.560 and did Go had the character deal with struggles of 0:16:17.600 --> 0:16:21.840 adolescence and financial issues, and accompanied him with many supporting characters, 0:16:21.880 --> 0:16:25.600 such as j Jonah Jamison, Harry Osborne, Max Modell, romantic 0:16:25.600 --> 0:16:29.640 interest is such as Gwinn Stacy and Mary Jane Watson 0:16:29.800 --> 0:16:34.480 and uh and foes such as Dr Octopus, Green Goblin Venom, 0:16:35.000 --> 0:16:37.280 which we will talk too much about because I have 0:16:37.440 --> 0:16:39.440 so many thoughts on you know, it's funny. I was 0:16:39.440 --> 0:16:42.880 watching the animated the Old animated show, and I think 0:16:42.920 --> 0:16:45.840 that was the first episode, and Aunt May is like 0:16:46.000 --> 0:16:48.840 hiding bills from him, like past two bills, and he 0:16:48.920 --> 0:16:50.440 was like, why does she hide these from me? And 0:16:50.440 --> 0:16:53.240 he like pulls it. Also, he looks like is he older? 0:16:53.320 --> 0:16:57.400 Like he looks much older in the animated he's he's 0:16:58.720 --> 0:17:01.720 he's like edged kid. Yeah yeah, yeah, but it was 0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:05.359 just like Polo Forever. Yeah, he definitely his face looked older. 0:17:05.400 --> 0:17:06.920 But it was so sad because I'm like, oh my gosh, 0:17:06.920 --> 0:17:08.760 I don't remember watching this as a kid. Of like, 0:17:09.200 --> 0:17:11.400 my aunt needs help paying the bills and I need 0:17:11.440 --> 0:17:13.320 to help her. I was like, oh my god. With 0:17:13.480 --> 0:17:18.439 some adult themes very much so um. Also, the beginning 0:17:18.480 --> 0:17:21.480 animation is hilarious to me because it's like, no, it's 0:17:21.520 --> 0:17:24.040 not good. That's why it's beautiful, because it's just you. 0:17:24.160 --> 0:17:25.920 When you think about it, you're you have to look 0:17:26.000 --> 0:17:29.159 up and go, wow, this looks like a I don't know, 0:17:29.240 --> 0:17:32.720 an old arcade game. They outsourced a lot of animation 0:17:32.720 --> 0:17:34.080 on that show. You can see when they're like, we 0:17:34.080 --> 0:17:35.760 couldn't afford this, had to put it out there to 0:17:35.760 --> 0:17:38.439 whoever you can make it for cheap. Uh. Yeah, So 0:17:38.480 --> 0:17:41.159 COI talk us through this first appearance of him and 0:17:41.200 --> 0:17:44.159 what this first run was like. So Spider Man was 0:17:44.240 --> 0:17:46.520 invented by Stanley and Steve Diko because he was a 0:17:46.600 --> 0:17:49.600 character they couldn't get in a book. So Stanley wanted 0:17:49.640 --> 0:17:52.159 to make a character that wasn't your traditional superhero. He 0:17:52.200 --> 0:17:55.240 wasn't someone that was like larger than life and very important. 0:17:55.440 --> 0:17:57.720 So he was arguably, and I would argue, one of 0:17:57.720 --> 0:18:00.359 the first, if not the first underdog superhero that achieved 0:18:00.359 --> 0:18:03.040 the mainstream status he did. He was invented an Amazing 0:18:03.040 --> 0:18:06.160 Fantasy fifteen, which was the last issue of the run. 0:18:06.440 --> 0:18:08.000 So not only would they not let him put him 0:18:08.000 --> 0:18:09.960 in his own title, at first, they were like, all right, 0:18:10.000 --> 0:18:11.840 it's canceled, throwing the book. So it's one of the 0:18:11.880 --> 0:18:14.119 reasons Amazing Fantasy fifteen so hard to get is it 0:18:14.160 --> 0:18:16.600 was a low print run because they were ending amazing fantasy. 0:18:16.720 --> 0:18:19.920 So they threw this character that everybody was like spiders. 0:18:19.960 --> 0:18:22.360 Nobody like spiders. Why would we make a man out 0:18:22.359 --> 0:18:25.960 of a spider? So he was put in this fantasy run. Uh. 0:18:26.000 --> 0:18:28.320 It was then the last issue and they didn't find 0:18:28.320 --> 0:18:30.520 out how popular he was for like four months because 0:18:30.560 --> 0:18:33.080 it was the time of like waiting for receipts in 0:18:33.200 --> 0:18:35.320 print and the mail. So then they got the numbers 0:18:35.359 --> 0:18:37.280 back and it was this huge hit. So he got 0:18:37.320 --> 0:18:39.679 his own title very quickly after they found out the numbers. 0:18:39.800 --> 0:18:42.880 An Amazing Spider Man Number one took off like crazy. 0:18:42.920 --> 0:18:45.920 Spider Man has been selling very well, you know, within reason, 0:18:46.000 --> 0:18:48.320 like with with what comics were at the time, from 0:18:48.320 --> 0:18:49.800 the beginning, and it's one of the reasons that's so 0:18:49.840 --> 0:18:52.000 hard to get those older issues is people have loved 0:18:52.040 --> 0:18:54.280 him from the beginning because he represented us. He was 0:18:54.320 --> 0:18:57.720 the rare character from nineteen sixty three that was an 0:18:57.720 --> 0:19:00.560 eyeline for people reading comics. He wasn't large than life, 0:19:00.560 --> 0:19:03.920 he wasn't brooding. He was a great power meets great 0:19:03.920 --> 0:19:06.960 responsibility foil for the rest of comic books, and he 0:19:07.119 --> 0:19:09.080 was what we all wanted to be in a superhero. 0:19:09.119 --> 0:19:11.040 He still had problems, He's still had his aunt's bills 0:19:11.040 --> 0:19:12.720 to pay, He's still at all those things. So it 0:19:12.840 --> 0:19:15.639 felt the most like everyone picking up these comics, especially 0:19:15.680 --> 0:19:18.720 in the early sixties. So Spider Man was invented as 0:19:18.760 --> 0:19:21.000 a this is the last chance for us to try it. 0:19:21.000 --> 0:19:22.720 It then did really well, and then it gave a 0:19:22.760 --> 0:19:24.800 lot of credibility to Stanley and Steve Dicko do what 0:19:24.880 --> 0:19:26.760 they wanted. And that's why I think he is one 0:19:26.760 --> 0:19:28.840 of the best rogues galleries and comics, because it wasn't 0:19:28.880 --> 0:19:30.919 a hundred cooks in the kitchen. It was Stanley and 0:19:30.920 --> 0:19:35.159
