Superboy-Prime Turns Spider-Man Meta in Superman/Spider-Man (Spoilers)

Superboy-Prime turns Spider-Man Meta in a very Eighties Superman/Spider-Man story as he does indeed end up in another crossover (Spoilers)

It's quite a day for Superboy Prime. Taking over the main Superman book, Superman #36 by Joshua Williamson and Dan Mora, making his usual meta comments, criticism and critiques…

And then, as he suggests, ending up in a massive crossover, one of the biggest, alongside the eighties Spider-Man… in today's Superman/Spider-Man with Christopher Priest and Alejandro Sanchez. After having read all those eighties Spider-Men, of course, many of which Priest worked on…

With Spider-Man asking probably the biggest question no one had asked Superboy Prime before. Well, you can tell this is Priest writing…

Even if it's only the typeface and colour scheme of the captions. And so as Superboy-Prime takes Spider-Man through a journey into those comics…

It's a good point, that comic book won't be in mint condition anymore, now you've gotten webbing all over it, stretching it out of place… Superboy Prime knows of what he speaks.

Superman #36 by Joshua Williamson, Dan Mora, and DC MARVEL SUPERMAN SPIDER-MAN #1 by, well, everyone, are published by DC Comics today.

  "exploring a meeting between Superboy Prime and Spider-Man during the black-suit era." It's called Tapping In, and it seems that Superman Prime is down for talking to Spider-Man's black suit. Because Spider-Man might not know about the symbiote suit being Venom at this point, but Superboy Prime, who has read Secret Wars and all of Amazing Spider-Man does…
