@hornacek thank you, I’ll seek it out. It’s funny, I also get Webspinners and Tangled Webs mixed up… two anthology series with rotating creative teams and “web” in the name released around the same time, so it makes sense (although I think Webspinners just focused on Peter, while Tales focused on his supporting cast too).
The “Behind The Moustache” issue of Tangled Webs (or Webspinners – I always get those two mixed up) is also a great “background of Jonah” story.
I miss these type of back stories. JJJ feels more at home in the 20th century than 2020 tbh.
Jigsaw Jameson!
