Wow, never knew that. I've always seen Spidey as an athletic and extra-strong guy, but not really a car lifter. I guess I've been living in a lie...LOL

Most people don't realize his strength. Its not really said much, but in most fights he pulls his punches unless he's up against someone like the Hulk, or the Juggernaut. The most ridiculous of times when he was Cosmic back during the Acts of Vengeance in the 80's he was throwing around MADISON SQUARE GARDEN and punching Hulk into space. Literally. Into. Space.

Re: Comic Book Fans....

I've been getting into Graphic Novels recently. Really enjoy the artwork and the stories are usually strong as well.

So far I've read: Watchmen, Batman: Year One, Captain America: The Chosen, Y The Last Man Vol. 1-3.

I've got to pick up the next few installments of Y and also have Batman: The Dark Knight Returns up on deck.

Re: Comic Book Fans....

Planning on applying to the Kubert School for September. Not sure if any of you have heard about it.

Re: Comic Book Fans....

I picked up volume 1 of the Scott Pilgrim series, Scott Pilgrim's Precious Little Life. So far I've only had time to read the prologue, but I love it so far.

Check out the Superman/Batman series. Some of those are really good reads.

Also I loved Year One. Classic read.
