A lot of “prominent” actors are the kids of millionaires and elites. It’s literally a useless throw off job for wealthy kids. Modern examples include the incredibly untalented Julia Louis Dreyfus, the Mara sisters, Ellie Kemper, Taylor Swift, on and on and on

It boggles my mind that with the great source material provided in the silver and Bronze Age they jumped to the all new all different characters that don’t sell and with all the great characters why do a Madam Web origin.

True. I meant more for the normies. I remember being surprised that ppl hadn’t heard of him.

And a surprising number of really good music videos.

Those were good cartoons though

It's Sony, so I think they actually don't have the option of using a lot of the good characters. Still, Madame Web?
Lol, less of a dartboard and more of a magnifying glass: "GUYS, CALL LEGAL, WE FOUND ANOTHER CHARACTER!"
Big Wheel when?
