This Toilet Paper is a Collector's Item

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
A vintage box of Spider-Man toilet paper – which has a comic book printed in blue ink across 325 sheets of 2-ply tissue paper for your butt cheeks to read on the throne – is a collectors’ item! 
 
Originally released in 1979, this “crap” is available on eBay, anywhere from $50-$100! I have read that Marvel Comics have decided to officially re-release the “toilet paper” superhero adventure as a digital "Infinity Comic", exclusively through the Marvel Unlimited app. 
 
While technically an April Fool's "joke" of sorts, the comic is indeed there, where it's expected to remain in digital perpetuity. Unlike the poop you took while reading it!
 
Still on Spider-Man. Remember when Peter Parker was the only Spider-Man?
 
Of course, times have changed and Marvel have created multiple versions of the Wall Crawler. Enter Miles Morales, Gwen "Ghost Spider" Stacy, Silk, Spider-Punk, and other characters that are essentially the New Coke to Spider-Man's Coca-Cola classic.
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
And while many like to cite Miles Morales as the first character that truly offered a new spin on Spider-Man, Toei were actually the first company to create the first Spider-Man variant.
