Spider-Man fights circus freaks... the Circus of Crime!
POINTLESS TRIVIA
BEN: More and more of the printed fan letters are from college students.
WHAT'S AGED THE BEST?
BEN: I love how often Stan has characters use the adjective “useless” as an insult toward other characters.
DUY: "In a sleazy hotel room, in a shabby hotel, some sneaky sinners are startled by the sight of a sparkling spider signal!"
WHAT'S AGED THE WORST?
BEN: The circus?
DUY: This?
BEN: Similarly, this:
DUY: So if this were retold today, Python coming onto Spidey would show him having more of an internal struggle to resist, right?
BEN: I think they’d play that up more.

DUY: This does not look like a headpiece. It looks like half her head has been cut off.

BEN: I remember a few fan letters criticizing Ditko’s rendering of feet, so this seems like an inside joke.
WHO WON THE COMIC?
BEN: The Clown. Just kidding, no one won in this comic.
DUY: Princess Python, I guess. This comic sucked.
DUY: Thank you, Stan Lee and Steve Ditko—
BEN: —for telling us we aren't the only ones.
