Title: I will now ruin Spiderman for everyone. Post by: Fabricated on August 15, 2004, 12:22:50 AM Spidey was the first superhero to have REAL personal problems, but Christ.
Title: I will now ruin Spiderman for everyone. Post by: SirBruce on August 15, 2004, 12:39:24 AM I've read that story before. I think they altered the fourth panel, by adding that text block at the end. I don't think that was there in the original. So yeah, the guy came on to him, but Peter left.

Spider-Man/Power Pack #1 http://www.spiderfan.org/comics/reviews/spiderman_social_ncpca/pp_a.html Skip Westcott http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix/westcott.htm Quote Real Name: Steven "Skip" Westcott Identity/Class: Human pedophile Occupation: High School student (as of over a decade ago) Enemies: Young Peter Parker and any other child Quote The flashback in this story is a far cry from any other tale of Peter Parker's childhood, .....since Spidey admits that he was too scared to leave when Skip made his advances, the implication is that the older boy actually did molest Peter, making him one of the earliest villains that Peter ever encountered, and an all too realistic one.

Post by: geldonyetich on August 15, 2004, 01:10:58 AM I find this after school special comic less disturbing than the Marvel superheroes' irrational love for twinkies (http://www.seanbaby.com/hostess.htm). (Warning, porno ads on the bottom)
Title: I will now ruin Spiderman for everyone. Post by: stray on August 15, 2004, 01:23:59 AM Hmm..Well, I guess it's better than Twinkie ads on every other page.
Title: I will now ruin Spiderman for everyone. Post by: SirBruce on August 15, 2004, 01:46:36 AM Hmm, okay, then maybe he did molest him. I didn't remember that part of the dialogue; maybe I just blocked it out mentally. :)

Heh. That's fucked up. Title: I will now ruin Spiderman for everyone. Post by: doubleplus on August 15, 2004, 08:44:57 AM Was this created back when Marvel was on their big social issues kick? I remember Spider-Man drug issues and Iron man drinking like a bird.
