  1. A Look Back at Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man #108 (1985)

    Disclaimer: This is my original work with details sourced from reading the comic book and doing personal research. Anyone who wants to use this article, in part or in whole, needs to secure first my permission and agree to cite me as the source and author. Let it be known that any unauthorized use of this article will constrain the author to pursue the remedies under R.A. No. 8293, the Revised Penal Code, and/or all applicable legal actions under the laws of the Philippines.

    Welcome back superhero enthusiasts, 1980s arts and culture enthusiasts, Spider-Man fans and comic book collectors! Today we go back to the year 1985 to examine a small part of the Marvel Comics shared universe through a tale of the Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man monthly series.

    I found issue #107 – the first issue of the Sin-Eater storyline – a pretty engaging tale focused on the murder of Jean DeWolff. The sudden demise of DeWolff really impacted the city of New York and its tale involved not only Spider-Man but also Daredevil. The tale is really a murder mystery that is very grounded with reality.

    With those details laid down, here is a look back at Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man #108, published in 1985 by Marvel Comics with a story written by the late Peter David and the late Rich Buckler.

    The cover.

    Early story

    The story begins with Judge Rosenthal lying dead on the floor in his office. Moments earlier, the judge was killed by the Sin-Eater who used a shotgun and in the same room was Matt Murdock (Daredevil). Some people entered the office and the local authorities were called. Murdock slowly makes his way out to discreetly go after the Sin-Eater.

    In another part of the city, Peter Parker, Aunt May and the elderly friend named Ernie walk together coming from the courthouse. Ernie could not believe that Judge Rosenthal let go of the punks who mugged him.

    As they walked further, people around them begin to panic and move around fast. Peter gets separated from his aunt and Ernie, and eventually he realizes that the Sin-Eater is several feet away armed with a shotgun. The Sin-Eater is speaking to the people even though he is causing a huge disturbance.

    Moments later, Peter changed into Spider-Man and proceeds to confront the Sin-Eater in front of many witnesses…

    Following the events of issue #107, this comic book shows more of the Sin-Eater and the story emphasizes why he is very dangerous to everyone. The Sin-Eater is not a superbeing himself, and yet he is capable of killing people and causing chaos in public without the need of having multiple weapons and ammunition. That said, he is tremendous villain that Spider-Man has difficulty handling.

    The physical encounter between Spider-Man and the Sin-Eater here is unsurprisingly ground in reality. The comic book action visualized by Rich Buckler has this raw action aesthetic and each time a physical blow was executed, impact is really felt. Don’t expect dynamic action here but a more realism and believability.

    What makes the fight between the two unique is that it happened in front of a lot of people on New York City’s street. As the fight went on, Spider-Man struggles not only with fighting the Sin-Eater (a truly violent opponent) but also dealing with the risk of bystanders getting hurt and realizing what happened to his beloved Aunt May.

    As expected, the detective story elements in this tale are very strong. Spider-Man, who is not a professional detective at all, gets to do detective work with a sheer determination to solve the mystery behind the death of Jean DeWolff. Along the way, I love how the David-Buckler duo invested a lot of details about the crime which are really worth paying attention to as you read.

    Conclusion

    The Sin-Eater and Spider-Man in a violent fight!

    Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man #108 (1985) is a powerful follow-up in the Sin-Eater storyline. As it contains all the key elements that made issue #107 a very unique and engaging read, this comic book executed good pay-off to the build-up in the previous issue while consistently building-up the plot simultaneously which is typical of Peter David (read the Spider-Man 2099 comic books back-to-back). As of now, this Sin-Eater storyline is compelling and I am looking forward to what comes next.

    Overall, Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man #108 (1985) is recommended.

  6. Del tamaño de la terraza y otras trampas del ego

    Los domingos, me encanta levantarme tarde y tomar el café en la terraza con mi marido. Es casi el único día de la semana que podemos hacer algo así porque el resto de días, a la hora del café, el ruido del tráfico no permite mantener una conversación con normalidad. Y, seguramente, esa es una de las causas de esa extrañeza disfrazada de melancolía que acarreo, aunque esa autopsia, mejor, la dejo para otro día.

    La cuestión es que durante la conversación de café con leche tranquilo, que hoy sí hemos podido mantener, me he sorprendido enunciando en voz alta que, quizá, me he acostumbrado tanto al traje de escritora frustrada que ahora no quiero salir de él.

    Sí, has leído bien, querido lector: yo no quiero dejar el papel de autora bloqueada que lucha por su arte pero a la que el mundo —tan injusto, tan cruel— no permite florecer.

    Vale, me he puesto un poco melodramática, pero es que el descubrimiento, de ser cierto, no es para menos. Y lo peor es que no hay dato alguno —¡ni uno!— que apunte hacia la incorrección de la premisa.

    La cuestión es que el papel de fracasado es cómodo. Y ahora no importa que hablemos de escritura, de trabajo, de familia… Eso es lo de menos. Lo relevante es que ese rol solo exige seguir igual que siempre y, eso sí, quejarse mucho de lo mucho que se ha intentado previamente y la mala suerte que se ha tenido.

    Y, ojo, que con eso no estoy diciendo que ese papel en cuestión se interprete desde el fondo de un pozo. Para nada. Por lo general, se interpreta mejor desde la comodidad relativa.

    Es como lo de nuestra terraza. Nos encanta hacer cosas fuera, tener plantas, hacer barbacoas, paellas, tomar el sol o mirar la luna. Pero el tráfico de la calle a la que da nuestra terraza se ha puesto terrible, además de que, con los años, la terraza se nos ha quedado algo pequeña, seguramente porque antes preferíamos salir y con los pocos metros de terraza nos bastaba para cuando la usábamos. Ahora, en cambio, preferimos estar en casa y, claro, no es lo mismo.

    Por supuesto, podríamos buscar otra casa, que cubra todas nuestras necesidades, incluida la terraza. Pero, claro, así como se ha puesto el mercado, con lo que nos gusta nuestro piso y lo bien situado que está. Y, ostras, ya casi tenemos del todo pagada la hipoteca, cómo vamos a pensar ahora en volver a empezar.

    Es mucho más sencillo quejarse del tráfico, de la forma tan desordenada en la que ha crecido la ciudad, de los acelerones que pega la gente sin necesidad… Lo que sea. Porque, en realidad, en nuestra pequeña y ruidosa terraza no estamos tan mal.

    Esta estrategia, obviamente, sería mucho menos factible si no tuviéramos terraza o, peor, pero más habitual tal y como están las cosas, no tuviéramos casa propia en absoluto.

    Tampoco yo estoy tan mal como escritora frustrada. Me las he apañado para conseguir un trabajo que me encanta, con una carrera profesional más que decente, buen salario, cómodo y que, además, me deja tiempo para escribir lo suficiente como para no asfixiarme además de quejarme de la mala suerte que he tenido en la vida, que no me ha permitido dedicarme por completo a escribir.

    Si no tuviera trabajo en absoluto o el empleo que tuviera fuera una maldita tortura no sería tan sencillo lo de quedarme instalada en la queja superficial mientras, en realidad, estoy en una posición cómoda. No ideal, no. Pero confortable.

    Supongo que a eso es a lo que se refiere la psicología con la dichosa zona de confort: ese lugar que no es el ideal, pero que es lo suficientemente bueno como para que intentar cambiarlo te suponga una incomodidad mayor de la que te supone mantenerte como estás.

    Por lo visto, no nos movemos por deseos. Para nada. Nos movemos por incomodidad. O, mejor dicho, por dolor. Si el dolor de una situación es soportable y, sobre todo, menor que el que nos provoca movernos a la siguiente casilla o, para ser más exactos, la incertidumbre que ese movimiento nos supone, nos quedamos.

    Y esto me parece absurdamente cruel.

    Pero, al menos, me sirve para entender qué me ha estado pasando estos días atrás y, sobre todo, por qué, de pronto, he tenido la tentación de enviarlo todo al carajo —otra vez—.

    Y es que el traje de escritora frustrada lo conozco. No es cómodo, pero me he hecho a él. Y él a mí. Tanto, tanto, nos hemos acostumbrado el uno al otro que el ejercicio de tratar de salir de él se siente como arrancarme la piel a jirones, algunos de ellos, con trozos de carne.

    Poco importa que hace casi dos meses, en una camilla de hospital tras una intervención de urgencia a vida o muerte descubriera que no quería irme de este mundo sin haber intentado en serio que mis historias llegaran a su público. El recuerdo sigue vivo, pero es lejano.

    Sin embargo, lo peor de todo no es desprenderse de esa identidad anterior que, erróneamente, habíamos confundido con la auténtica. En absoluto. Lo peor es no saber exactamente cuál es el traje que te están poniendo ahora.

    Esa, y no otra, es la incomodidad a la que ayer llamaba tontería.

  8. When Was The Last Time You Looked At The Sky

    You know, one thought crept from nowhere, and it is something that has been on my mind for quite some time now. Not for days or weeks, you might think, it suddenly came into my mind. So, quite a thought it is. Maybe if you think about it too, you might also wonder for a while. Who knows?Just a simple question to you, “When was the last time you looked at the sky?”I know it sounds like a strange question or something like that, isn’t it? You might think that as if I have completely run […]

    Welcome back to another in-depth Bible study. If you're just now stopping by I highly recommend going back to the beginning, Genesis 1:1. This is an in-depth Bible study that follows chapter by chapter, verse by verse, Genesis to Revelation. https://youtu.be/0AujWTvlFzs?is=zh9H-prx5mFn1iqb Psalms 1191 Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD.2 Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart.3 They also do no iniquity: they […]

  12. There’s no need to be afraid to steal openly.

    But it’s like, for example, Stanley Kubrick stealing from painters, or me trying to steal from Hitchcock.

    Despite the asymmetry of the talents listed, none of us will ever succeed in stealing everything.

    If anyone’s interested, I can let you read the first two chapters of my #book #HerOwnDream — maybe you’ll give me some feedback or try to steal something from me, too.

  14. "Why We Fight For The Internet" a new blog post by me

    > There are a lot of things in this world worth fighting for. Things we would like to see improved in our society. Wealth inequality, corporate and political corruption, civil rights for queer people, especially trans and gender non-conforming folks.

    ...

    > Why then, might you ask, should anyone be focusing on the politics of the internet?! Believe it or not, it's my opinion that fighting to improve the internet is one of the most important fights we can be having right now, in order to maximize our political effect.

    ...

    > But a healthy internet also allows people to avoid discussions they don't want to be a part of. The consequence of not giving people this kind of freedom to not engage is what we see on the internet now: everyone is frustrated and mad, getting into flame wars and screaming competitions. I'd wager a lot of the people spreading negativity in certain comments sections are doing so because an opaque algorithm keeps feeding them content that they vehemently disagree with, and at a certain point, they feel the need to correct the narrative.
