I got 7 of ten correct! One was tricky, and I didn't know that his web shooters were supposed to originally be organic. Where did you find this from?

Also, out of curiousity, when did they mention how long MJ knew he was Spider-Man?

I haven't read Spider-Man in years, but I picked up a few new issues at a friend's recommendation. I still have to get to reading them!

I thought that
Spoiler:
Aunt May
also died in the comics. Is that not true?

Spoiler:
Yes. She's dead and revealed she'd known Peter was Spidey on her deathbed. Pete didn't even meet MJ till somewhere in the issue #40-50 range.


I haven't read any since the clone story ended('96?). Did Peter and MJ ever find out their baby is alive? Last I read that old woman who worked for Norman Osborne stole the baby and told Pete and MJ it died at birth.

And this has to do with movies how???? None of those questions relate to the Spider Man movies.

This clearly belongs in the Comic Book Forum.

It doesn't seems like all questions are only in comic.

Actually they are.

And to answer an earlier question,

Spoiler:
Aunt May died but is now back alive. That was also a horrifically bad story. It was tough being a Spider-man fan in the 90s.

Harry's not really dead. it only appears that way right now. he'll be back just like Norman.

Why can't spidey just use a vacuum cleaner every time he fights the Sandman if it worked the first time?

Aunt May's currently in critical condition after taking a bullet. So I guess she could be potentially a correct answer in a couple of months. :p

Doubt that. Considering she "died" in 1997.

Yeah, cause superheros only get one chance to come back from the dead? Shit even M.J. "died" and the talk about Spider-man: One more day seems like something will potentially happen there.

The test was a little too easy. ;)

Well, i'm just saying killing her off would be a bad move. Not that ever killing a character is a good move.

True enough, although it's something fun for non-comics fans, or just the casual reader.

Well, I know him well enough to know that wasn't him I saw on the movie screen in "SM3" tonight! Boy, was that bad...
