When was that storyline where Dr. Octopus kidnapped Mary Jane and she distracted Ock by correcting him on Spider-man's nicknames? That was so insane.

And when Newspaper SpiderMan visited the Newspaper Avengers, Newspaper Captain America and Newspaper Iron Man took turns beating the crap out of him just to see if it was really him.

"Nope, nobody else would keep making wisecracks after major head trauma, so it must be Spider-man"

That's still less of a dick move than the actual comic Avengers telling Spider-man he has to capture the hulk as his initiation test (note: there has never been an avengers initiation test before or after this issue).

I found this while reading Spectacular Spider-man back issues. I don't even know if it's about the same Spider-man newspaper strip, but I figure it's still relevant to the thread.

Just to get it straight, comics Ronan is more of an anti-hero as opposed to crazy movie Ronan, right?

It really depends. He's moved from traitorous evil bastard to standard evil henchman to "I must protect my people and honor my vows" back and forth so many times it's kind of dizzying.

It was a pretty bad storyline from 1999. Robbie writes a negative newspaper story about a mob guy, who sends a woman in to get a job at the Bugle. She purposefully falls off a stepstool or something so Robbie catches her while another goon films, and they accuse Robbie of sexual harrassment so Robbie will lose his job.

You know, usually mobsters just... shoot reporters.
