Reality Check by Dave Whamond for April 23, 2024

you can’t argue with science, can you Spiderman?

And what makes you think he doesn’t now

Pedantic Man hangs out in comic comment sections.

Perhaps he’s a strange mix ( most likely not possible? ) with a species of Embioptera? They generate silk from their forelegs.

I wasn’t sure about the movie Spiderman that generated webs from his body. Grew up with the cartoons and the sciency web shooters.

VERY interesting way to swing from building to building.

Spider-Man, Spider-Man, grossing out all his fans!

I once saw Danny Phantom shoot lightning bolts from his arce!

i’ve run into quite a few Pedantic Men…

“You’re about to find out what I shoot out my butt hole!”

Actually, in real life, there wouldn’t be a Spider Man. Plenty of Pedantic Men, though.

CLICK! I have an awesome business idea!

NEW Spider-Man action figure… and I bet ya can’t guess where the web is gonna come from! ツ

Probably.

Ralph’s not even touching that one!

And he’d probably be Spider Woman.

Tell me more … I know you can do it … before my Cesspit and Outhouse emptying partner arrives with the truck. You’ll recognize the smell.

that would be an interesting spin

I’d pay to watch that movie.

Yah, butt they had to keep the comic book G rated.

The Brown Spider on Venture Brothers shot webbing from his butt. The character was voiced by Nathan Fillion.

Spider-man never generated webs on his own. He created web-shooters to wear on his wrists for better aim and accuracy. All he got from the spider was the ability to cling to walls and increased strength. No venom, no webbing, no extra eyes or limbs (except on rare occasions when the script called for it.)

And in real life heroes wear their underwear under their tights!

A very stupid misconception. Spiders have special spinnerets on their abdomen for that purpose. Who’s the ___hole now?

I wouldn’t want to be behind Spidey if he did THIS!!! :-O

Ew, ew!

Ralph has a mental image he can’t get rid of!

Whoa Nelly … Dave wrote BUTT HOLE …!

speaking of Butt Holes I think Pedantic Man qualifies

Um… wrong. Spiders produce silk from “spinnerets,” which are usually on their underside.

I outgrew superhero comics about age 13. Now movies based on those seem to be the lifeblood of millennials, even many older “adults”. The movie Idiocracy certainly revealed why, in the first five minutes.
