Peter Parker: Spider-Man (volume 2) issue 21.
Peter has always been a funny guy. He creates banter in tense situations and his battle humor has been a long staple of the Spidey books. In this Paul Jenkins issue, he took the next logical step and tried his hand at stand up comedy.
He bombed.
Know why they didn’t believe it? Psychic mindblock.
Too bad everyone at that party eventually found out anyway. Gwen included if you count her clone.
Spidey has had lots of wacky teamups lately. Obama, Colbert…but apparently there is an “untold tale” teamup with Madonna that is yet to be told. I’d love to see that! P.S. The “who” in question […]
on Panel(s) of the Day #1610 (Mary Jane Monday!): “At least he said “I have to go take photos for the Bugle.” This is a valid excuse since this…” Nov 5, 04:26
on Craig’s Critique: Amazing Spider-Man #60 (Legacy #954): “Hit The Road, Zeb” or “All [REDACTED] Things Must Come To An End”: “Yep, as I predicted, Paul is here to stay. Marvel want Peter and MJ apart, and Paul is the story…” Nov 4, 17:43
on Panel(s) of the Day #1610 (Mary Jane Monday!): “Wow, Peter actually said, “I done blame her.”” Nov 4, 13:28 on Panel of the Day #1609 (Splash Page Sunday!): “Who knew Peter had a skirt in his closet made out of webbing?” Nov 4, 07:43 on Panel(s) of the Day #1608 (Ditko!): “Peter is so upset that he forgot his own hyphen. Twice! And he also referred to himself as “The” Spiderman.” Nov 4, 04:28 on Craig’s Critique: Amazing Spider-Man #60 (Legacy #954): “Hit The Road, Zeb” or “All [REDACTED] Things Must Come To An End”: “@Joshua Nelson: At this point I don’t expect Marvel to have Peter tell Aunt May that he’s Spider-Man. If they…” Nov 3, 00:40 on Craig’s Critique: Amazing Spider-Man #60 (Legacy #954): “Hit The Road, Zeb” or “All [REDACTED] Things Must Come To An End”: “@Kenneth: I wasn’t even thinking about her health but you’re right. But just from the years of May making wheatcakes…” Nov 3, 00:36 on Craig’s Critique: Amazing Spider-Man #60 (Legacy #954): “Hit The Road, Zeb” or “All [REDACTED] Things Must Come To An End”: “@Dark Mark: Yeah, this issue really felt like an epilogue and not the final issue of a story. One issue…” Nov 3, 00:35
on Craig’s Critique: Amazing Spider-Man #60 (Legacy #954): “Hit The Road, Zeb” or “All [REDACTED] Things Must Come To An End”: “Well…it’s over. Like most, I have not liked this run. At all. There are plenty of things I can critique…” Nov 2, 18:13

This moment is funny, more entertaining than so many oneliners he shoots by certain writers
PJ is one of the funniest Spidey writers
Mark- if I’m correct, the joke is that he’s a mime and his prison is him PRETENDING to be in jail; like how a mime pretends to be in a box or pretends to tug on a rope or something. I don’t know how else to explain it. (I actually thought the joke was funny)

I agree with Slash, I LOVED Paul Jenkins run, he was the first guy writing Spider-man that actually made me realize I liked a specific writers work. Before his stuff I just liked Spider-man in general and never gave attention to who wrote it.
That was great. Paul Jenkins run on Peter Parker Spider-man was fantastic, with many great character moments 🙂
I liked his run more tha JMS’s on Amazing.
I know its tough to explain a joke, and this is a bombed joke, but someone please explain it to me?
Be nice..
Wow, kind of like when Steve Wacker tries to be witty on the CBR boards.
