The thing that would make the bend sinister prophesy truly hilarious would be if Dr Strange travelled back in time 60k years and then wrote down an incomprehensible prophecy only he could understand. Like he knows it's a prophecy for him so it's deliberately written wrong so other mystics think it's incomprehensible gibberish

It's funny, Nabokov's Bend sinister is one of my favorite books of all time. In his book, the meaning of the title has to do with distortion, think of like a distorted mirror or seeing a reflection in a puddle of water etc. But the common definition is usually something to do with being a bastard, in medieval times they would put a slash across the family crest to indicate that there was a bastard in the line then that was the bend sinister. If I had to guess, maybe Frank Miller and the other author read the Nabokov book and thought it was cool, in which case they are using the term to signify a distorted reflection. That would actually make sense in the clone saga maybe.

Last year, I found a dollar bin Spectacular Spider-Man #74--the one where Peter dresses as Spider-Man to prove to Deb that he isn’t Spider-Man. I adore that story for how brazenly it shows Peter to be in the wrong, and I’m shocked they haven’t turned Deb Wittman into a Goblin or something, since they insist on giving everyone in his personal life super powers.

Very reserved for Frank Miller.

But then Doom comes up & I’m like “oh this episode is gonna be really GREAT” 33:39 Tiffany raising her hand because she cares, and I felt that, especially because I’m reading Claremont’s run of X-men & there are some things that I feel need to addressed. Like why did Nightcrawler date his step sister???

Sal is actually wrong. Miller is a giant fan of Spider-Man. And he was always pretty open about it. That's why his art kinda weird here - he is afraid to mess up. And that's why he develops so much on Daredevil - it's a character he didn't have any attachment to.

OMG Debra Whitman 😳 Sal, thank you for pointing out how much of a dickhead Peter was during their relationship. Peter would constantly forget or abandon Debra on dates, apologize, lead her on, then forget or abandon her again. Peter’s refusal to either commit or call off their relationship was infuriating. In Deb’s final issues it was revealed that she had been the victim of domestic abuse before she came to ESU, which just made Peter’s treatment of her even worse in retrospect. I have no idea what the writers were thinking. It was genuinely unpleasant to read her issues because Peter was such an awful boyfriend.
