hope the folks at my LCS refer to me as “the Ben Reilly guy” because of the podcast and conversations, and not because of the blond dye job and periods of noticeable mental illness

If you learn nothing else from me yelling about Ben Reilly/Scarlet Spider on @cloneconspiracy.bsky.social, just know that he canonically has a fatter ass than Peter Parker, per Black Cat

Since the last episode of @cloneconspiracy.bsky.social and an off-hand joke about J. Jonah Jameson’s “werewolf-astronaut son”, I’ve had a surprising number of questions from non-Spider-Man fans about, uh, that.

Short thread. 1/

a subset of the Parker Luck is the “Reilly Luck”, which is just an extreme version of the Parker Luck combined with poor decision making (like stealing a skeleton from the morgue and storing it in your closet for 12 issues)

Our hardworking team (@scottfree.bsky.social) has determined - through careful study - that the beginning of Spectacular Spider-Man 231 is the point at which Ben Reilly is the happiest he would be in the 90s.

That’s science, baby.

I have a whole podcast about the Clone Saga, so I should probably go with the Clone Saga.

Web-Slinger (Patrick O’Hara) is the cowboy Spider-Man of Earth-31913, and the indignity of his blond brother, Ben, being a Confederate soldier. 😭

(Spider-Verse (vol. 3) #4, which is otherwise delightful.)
