    You’d think aunt May, Mary Jane Watson, and J. Jonah Jameson would take notice of Peter Parker’s humongous digits when he’s out of costume. He’d probably say they’re tumors or something.

    Is that cemetery for gamblers who are knocked off by the mob?

    Those scientists obviously know nothing about “spidey powers.”

    That’s why Cambridge University scientists don’t write comic books.

    Comic strip characters don’t follow the laws of physics? Who would have ever thought that?

    So I found the Cambridge research. Essentially they say the largest creature that can walk on walls is a gecko. The size of the footpads to weight ratio then becomes too much to actually be effective.

    But like most of the other comments, they don’t take into account that Parker’s abilities are “super”. I doubt they ever did analysis on a radioactive spider…

    The only reason Formula 1 cars still have to change gears is because the continuous variable transmission (CVT) was banned for Formula 1 cars in 1994.
