pre-intro for spider feelings.

[redesigned]

[Am I dreaming? Is this a dream? What does it say about me that I would dream this? Trapped in a giant unpoppable bubble in the middle of a swamp full of zombies and freakishly friendly fauna, I--I do not want to know what that could say about me. The next time mom warns me not to snack late at night I'll listen, I swear.

Oh, man, I hope this is a dream because I really doubt any teacher is going to accept 'a zombie ate my homework'. Though considering the subject on today's menu maybe I'll get lucky and they'll have a sense of humor about the whole thing. I mean--brains! At least that's worth a chance for extra credit, right? I'd think it was funny. Uh, if it wasn't happening to me.]

--frontal, parietal, occipital, temporal!

[that sure was a kid in spider-spandex backflipping over a zombie and tapping it on the head. . . and after a beat there's AN ELECTRIC SHOCK. the zombie groooaaaans, spits out a few scraps of paper, and twitches off. Miles picks up his backpack and stuffs the scraps inside, sighs]

I would really like to wake up now.

[Stuck in a zombie summer camp and everyone knows who you are because in other worlds, you're fictional. But so far, no one's surprised to see you alive. Yeah, guess they couldn't kill a hero in crappy movies.

Wouldn't you be upset if Batman died? Though, uh, maybe I shouldn't use that example in front of Batgirl. Or Supergirl.

Which, by the way: still weird.

You might be wondering why I'm thinking to myself so loudly like this after meeting a martian who can do it. Who probably just heard that. Sorry, M'gann. It's because this whole situation is a little weird. I still haven't worked out the "why I'm alive" bit, and it's not a question I just want to ask. "Hey, you're hot, Jennifer, so any chance someone you know come back from the dead here?" And given the business I'm a part of, some people might say they just found a way to keep me alive.

Except Valhalla. By the way? The beer is great there.

Which isn't here. Valhalla's everything the legends are cut up to be, and this is a stinking summer camp full of strange things like a kid in a red and black Spider-Man costume that looks a lot better than yours ever did and also moves kind of similarly—]

What?

[Okay, not subtle, and you killed the surprise. Just jump down and say hi. That'll do the trick. You've inspired lots of people.

so down he goes from the tree he had recently swung from to literally land in front of Miles]

Nice redesign, but even if pretty much everyone here has said this one looks stupid, I've grown fond of it. You can tell whoever gave you that that I'm gonna stick with this one, and I don't care if it came from Versaci.
