The Amazing Spider-Man (2001-2007)/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Uncle Ben, of all people, got one. When Charlie Whinerman was hiding in Parker's home, Ben told the jocks who wanted to beat him to go away. Flash Thompson tried to attack him instead. And our old, dear Uncle Ben KICKED HIS ASS!
  • During J. Michael Straczynski's opening arc, Spidey met a dude called Morlun, who said his need to suck the Life Energy out of Spidey was nothing personal. Spidey's response:

"Waitaminnit... you're saying you're gonna kill me and it's nothing personal? Nothing personal? Listen, Buddy, I've fought every kind of nutball on the planet. I've fought freaks, mutants, aliens and high-tech gangs. Heck, I've fought my own costume. And you know what? You're the first one who's really ticked me off. You want me? Bring it on, chowderhead. Bring it on."

  • At the end of that same arc, having gotten the tar kicked out of him by Morlun, Spidey uses a desperate plan involving radioactive isotopes. Morlun proceeds to become a lot less fearsome. Spidey then delivers a royal beatdown while declaiming:

"How does it feel, Morlun? How does it feel to be facing someone who won't give up and run away? How does it feel to be on the receiving end of the unstoppable force? How. Does. It. FEEL?"

    • We can't forget his thought just before injecting himself with radioactive goo:

"I've finally reached my own critical mass. And I'm Taking You with Me."
