Episode 129 – Death of Spider-Man (With Marvel by the Month)

In this episode, we're joined by Bryan Stratton and Robb Milne of the Marvel by the Month podcast to complete our first podcast crossover (you can hear the first part here)—and to discuss Ultimate Comics Spider-Man: Death of Spider-Man, by Brian Michael Bendis and Mark Bagley, published by Marvel Comics! Just when things are looking up for the Peter Parker of Earth-1610, life comes crashing down around him. His arch-nemesis Norman Osborn, the Green Goblin, has escaped from S.H.I.E.L.D. with a handful of superpowered felons. Worse yet, he knows that Parker is Spider-Man and has murder on his mind! You've seen the title of this episode, so you know things don't end well. The question is, can Spidey protect Aunt May, his friends, and innocent bystanders from Osborn's insane fury? And can this landmark tale ascend to that ultimate universe of four-color finery known as ... The Comics Canon?   In This Episode: The Ultimate Comics line May Parker's friends, Smith and Wesson Amazing Spider-Man #33 Our Panels of the Week!
