DUY: Flash takes his shot at Gwen.
WHAT'S AGED THE BEST?
BEN: Jameson as mayor, that would be a crazy idea...
DUY: Way, way ahead of its time. Actually even when Jameson does become mayor, it's also slightly ahead of its time.... Anyway, I like that Gwen is just straightforward with Flash.
BEN: There’s no place for maturity in this comic.
DUY: You only say that because the main character is Peter Parker.
WHAT'S AGED THE WORST?
DUY: This issue was pretty good, so I'm just gonna take the time to remind everyone that the way webs are drawn in this era and for the next nearly 20 years still is fairly simplistic and will be changed by 1988.
NITPICKS
DUY: Would this really work? It seems not that plausible.
BEN: I was gonna chalk that up to miscolored rope.
FAVORITE PANEL
BEN: I love Peter’s ass, what can I say?
DUY: Mine:
BEN: Romita did try to break Gwen from her classic headband mold towards the end here.
WHO WON THE COMIC?
DUY: I'm far more interested in Flash and Gwen than the main storyline here, so I'm gonna say Gwen Stacy.
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.
