<p>Not a hoax, not a dream...in this episode, a character dies! And...gets better. Merry Christmas! My present to you: this episode. It's, uh, not holiday themed, really, except maybe in a <em>It's A Wonderful Life</em> kinda way as there's a story about retrospection and redemption. The comics: Amazing Spider-Man 4 (1963), Amazing Spider-Man 217 & 218 (1981), and Marvel Two-In-One 86 (1981). </p> <p>Episode art by Steve Ditko, from Spider-Man 4.</p> <p>Further reading & references:</p> <p><em>All of the Marvels </em>by Douglas Wolk (talks about how early Spider-Man villains are corrupt father figures to Peter)</p> <p><em>Mysterious Travelers: Steve Ditko and the Search for a New Liberal Identity </em>by Zack Kruse (yes, yes, I'm aware that Ditko was an Ayn Rand fan (ugh), but I don't go into it because this book muddles the popular conception of how this influenced his work)</p> <p>Patreon: <a href="patreon.com/notadreampod" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">patreon.com/notadreampod</a></p> <p>Mastodon: @bookybookman@retro.pizza</p> <p>Twitter: @notadreampod</p> <p>Instagram: @notahoaxpod</p> <p>Email: notahoaxpod@gmail.com</p> <p>Music:</p> <p>Big Boi Pants by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com - used with Creative Commons license</p> <p>Sound clips:</p> <p>All-Star Superman (2011), Justice League Unlimited (2004 - 2006), Batman Beyond (1999 - 2001), X-Men: The Animated Series (1992 - 1997), The Dark Knight (2008), Spider-Man (2002), Superman (1978), The Transformers: The Movie (1986), Justice League (2001 - 2004), Doom Patrol (2019 - ), WandaVision (2021), X-Men: Pryde of the X-Men (1989), Spider-Man (1981 - 1982), and Spider-Man & His Amazing Friends (1981 - 1983). </p> <p>Clips and art used for purposes of research and criticism (Fair Use).</p>
