In today's pulse pounding action thrillride, Spider-Man is thwarted by a dastardly lack of tall buildings and has to take the subway. Tune in tomorrow, true believers! Excelsior!

besides, Peter David already did it decades ago -- he wrote a story where Spidey had to chase a criminal out to LI and ended up walking everywhere.

I think he's just wearing thermal underwear.

The dumbest thing is him standing in the loving snow barefoot, then he has to go back into a goddamn tent to shake the chill he's giving himself. It's a really bad move, survival-wise. I guess he grew up in the tropics and is also likely an idiot.

It could also be the hypoxia/hypothermia combo breaking his fragile psyche like a twig. Maybe that's part of the Phantom building process. You go unprepared to the Himalayas, go insane, wander for a few years in the high mountains fighting off yetis and stealing from terrified villagers while believing you're training in a secret monastery.

Probably better to just come right out and tell him that Friend Code prevents her from dating her best friend's ex (at least so soon after the breakup and without her friend's explicit blessing), but they're little kids so it's reasonable that they don't know about that yet.

Didn't we just go through a heart attack in Crankshaft, or was that some other kind of life-threatening incident? In either case it looks like Bull is making an escape attempt from the Funkiverse. Go Bull, go!
