Spider-Man #41: The Horns of the Rhino (Commentary)


This is part of new series of essays looking at the Stan Lee/John Romita era of Amazing Spider-Man in forensic detail, from both a Watsonian and a Doylist point of view. 

How did Stan Lee's working relationship with John Romita differ from his relationship with Steve Ditko, and how does this manifest on the pages of the comic?

What was the precise date of Peter Parker's first meeting with Mary Jane, and why does this involve a continuity gaff?

Patreon subscribers are getting early access to these essays. If you are interested in this kind of thing and can afford to support niche bloggers then my I respectfully implore you to become a Patreon, for a $5 (£3.75) a month.

EXCITING NEW FEATURE If you would like to read these essays right now but can't commit to a monthly subscription, Patreon now allows you to pay for access to individual essays. ($3 per roughly 2000 words.)

Everything will be popping up on the blog in due course if you'd rather wait.
