WHAT'S AGED THE BEST?
BEN: Shared universe, baby.
DUY: I guess it's the shared universe, but Kraven retreating to the Savage Land is way too on-brand it's dumb.
BEN: Maybe it’s so on-brand it’s brilliant?
WHAT'S AGED THE WORST?
BEN: Spider-Man murders an innocent creature!
DUY: Oh, I get it. Gil Kane's trying to be Jim Steranko, but he's not good.
BEN: He murdered that creature!
DUY: Activate instant kill!
BEN: Kane has never seen a T-Rex before.
NITPICKS
DUY: So with just the bare amount of brain effort.... Ka-Zar must know Spidey is Peter Parker, right?.
BEN: Ka-Zar grew up around gorillas and dinosaurs.
FAVORITE PANEL
BEN: The greatest cartoon ever?
WHO WON THE COMIC?
BEN: Kraven has found his niche as an over-the-top clown:
DUY: Ka-Zar wins because he's made his second appearance in Amazing Spider-Man in less than 50 issues, and WHY. Like why Ka-Zar? Why?
DUY: That's it for Spider-Rama this week.
BEN: Thank you, Stan Lee and Steve Ditko—
DUY: —for telling us we aren't the only ones.
