Madame Web Watches Spidey: A Taster Of Free Comic Book Day 2011

By xerox_kitty 16 Comments

It's no secret that I follow humberto_ramos on Twitter.  I love him as an artist, and he's so friendly he will reply to your tweets.  And like many other comic creators on Twiiter he posts little teasers of future work to come.  This little taster is by Humberto Ramos & Edgar Delgado, but this eye candy isn't meant to separate your cash from your wallet.  This is to celebrate the one day of the year when comics are free...! 
 
The mysterious Madame Web is looking a lot younger these days.  Arachne is settling into her new role as she looks back over the landmark moments of Peter Parker's youth.  From his days as an infant, to the infamous spider bite and the tragic death of his Uncle Ben.

Anyone else looking forward to Free Comic Book Day?  Anyone else love this two-page summary of the origins of Spider-Man?   I love this so much that I jut had to share it...!

I really miss Arachne. What does Rachel do now that her mom is essentially a watcher?

This would be a perfect premise or plot point to use for a .1 issue.

Very interesting. I know that some readers are not pleased with Julia's new role as Madame Web. She reminds me of Barbara Gordon as Oracle. It's cool that we will be enjoying this at no cost!

@sora_thekey: Yeah, I thought that.  Seems pretty ideal way of summing up Spider-Man's origins in a 2-page splash.   
 
@Illyana Rasputin: Generally speaking, we comic book fans don't like change.  I don't know the character well enough to be opposed to her new role.  Yet she looks pretty sweet all clad in red leather, stoicly observing.

I think she looks sweet, too. One reader felt she wasn't "sexy", anymore. I wasn't aware that was a prerequisite for her character dynamic, but okay. In my opinion, I think she's a lot more interesting than your average buxom super heroine with a Barbie doll waist.

Humberto is a great guy, I've talked to him a few times and like 8-9 years ago I got to help translate some of his early work that was published in Mexico for a collection here in the US, can't remember who the writer was that I was translating but I'll never forget his art :)
