Still stricken with amnesia, Spider-Man runs into the lord of the jungle, Ka-Zar!
POINTLESS TRIVIA
BEN: The first of many times Gwen will cry over Peter:
DUY: This is the second jungle-dwelling character named Ka-Zar. The first one was a pulp hero from 1936, and this one was created for the X-Men in 1965. Why the same name? I dunno. I also don't care. Ka-Zar sucks.
BEN: It seems like they did this amnesia angle to minimize time with the ever-growing supporting cast, which I might have enjoyed when I was younger, but now I always want more time with them. Maybe later on when Mary Jane is choking down cigarettes and sorrow, but not with this cast. On my scale of importance, this cast is at the top. Ka-Zar is not as high on my personal scale. Ka-Zar is not on my scale. Ka-Zar can’t look at my scale without asking.
WHAT'S AGED THE BEST?
BEN: Who needs proof?
DUY: Ka-Zar's superpower is basically that he's a parkour expert, so I guess that's aged well.
WHAT'S AGED THE WORST?
BEN: The entire concept of Tarzan, or Ka-Zar.
NITPICKS
BEN: Ka-Zar rips his shirt off at the first possible moment, but not his pants. I usually lose my pants as I cross through my front door. I’m not saying I want to see Ka-Zar pantsless, but I’m not NOT saying it.
FAVORITE PANEL
BEN: Steeped in villainy!
DUY: Ka-Zar rides a cab and takes Zabu, his sabertooth tiger, with him, and I think it's funny.
WHO WON THE COMIC?
BEN: Jameson once again does a lot in so few panels.
DUY: Dr. Bromwell, for saying what we're all thinking about Aunt May.
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.
