I remember buying the very first issue for 12 cents.

If you kept it, in mint, it’s worth 75 grand.

I doubt he will be dead for long.

Always trying to reinvent themselves. Actually, it's the story-writers who want to be famous for creating something, so they create an entirely new character wrapped up in something old so that folks might swallow their poison pill, and then they're surprised when the fans don't like it.
Anyone remember the black Spiderman suit from the 80s? They had intended on getting rid of the red suit within a year after introducing it. Fans were so outraged that the black suit became an evil alien symbiote (actually, more of a parasite, if you ask me).

He will be resurrected as “The Fabulous Spider Person”, a gay super hero with an affinity for the bravo network, throw pillows and track lighting.

If I only knew that way back then. Bought the first issue of the Fantastic Four, too.

I thought they said a few months ago that Parker was going to be replaced by an illegal alien.

I guess that means the new romantic interest will not be named “Mary Jane” or “Gwen”. Perhaps Norman or Harry?

From about 1957 thru about 1965 I bought every super hero comic book ever printed. I grew up in a small town in northern Michigan and my uncle owned a small book store that sold papers and comic books and every week I'd stop in and buy which ever comic he had.....

If he were a real person, he would be about 68 years old. And his business model of taking pictures and bringing them only to Mr Jameson, rather than posting them on the web ( no pun intended)is about as outdated as Superman’s telephone booth.

Better sell it while it is still worth something. Fewer and fewer people read and collect comic books. The genre/industry is dying off. Just like the print media and newspapers.
