Didn’t Spider-Man save J. Jonah Jameson’s astronaut son from an out-of-control space capsule? (Answer: Yes, in Amazing Spider-Man No. 1) So, here Arniejolt has Spidey reprising a rescue from the troposphere to lead this week’s edition of the ‘Shop Contest.
Getting started, uscg_pa (10) put together a bang-up magazine cover, but … yeah, kinda misspelled Britney’s name. Good effort anyway. Snufkin (8) also called back to the sleep suit—and the mysterious face in the trees. halfbeast (3) thinks up a new functionality for the Wii U gamepad.
Lots of people saw a facehugger in Spidey’s backpack, and sciteach (7) took care of that, with a color-correct pod, too. Nathalie (4) had the best take on a tank, by far. But my overall favorite was arniejolt, leaping in from the edge of space. His mashup (2) also was a fan-favorite, one I couldn’t bring myself to leave out.
Gang, I’m not going to insult anyone’s intelligence by ignoring the obvious: With nine finalists here, the ‘Shop Contest is in a rut. I can’t change our comment system any more than I can change the orbit of Neptune. But I can do a better job of finding exploitables, and I will tomorrow.
