...webs coming out of Parker himself...

i wonder if they 'borrowed' this idea from the late, great Spiderman 2099 series.

/me used to love the 2099 titles...

One of the greatest moments in comic book history is Parker walking away from the garbage can with the suit hanginging out with the words "Spider-Man no more!"

IIRC the time Parker gave up on being Spidey in the comics was when they introduced the Sinsister Six. Let me see, there was the Vulture, Sandman, Electro, Kraven the Hunter (Who looked like at least three of the village ppl), Mysterio and Doc Oc. They captured Aunt May and forced Parker to fight each of them in turn. Dumbasses should have ganged up on him, but hey- that's supervillains for ya.

Maguire's character's interaction with Aunt May continues to be great, especially their discussions regarding guilt over the death of Uncle Ben in the first movie and how they both feel completely responsible for the events that transpired.

One of the great things about their relationship in the comics that didn't show up in the first film is that Aunt May *hates* spiderman- she thinks he's creepy and nasty. When she met Doc Oc, however, she thought he was a perfect gentlemant, and told Peter off for picking on his 'disability'. I hope some of that gets put into the second (or third) film. Of course, there's a reason she always disliked Spidey, revealed on her death bed, which is that sh***THIS SENTENCE EDITTED BY SPOILER POLICE***bout him.

What's next? How about a huge Hollywood Spidey/X/Daredevil/Hulk crossover? But really, they should be making 2099 into a huge, 16-part series of films...
