Chef’s Note: As we have seen before, being a superhero quite often requires interrupting one’s meal.
So, it is very in character here for Peter, swinging along with his delightful yet simple evening repast, to drop it all in a NY minute to hone in on a hot blond scream. That’s some Class A superheroing!
Personally, I would not want to be the reason that Spider-Man has interrupted his burger-time. Those Fisk boys are in for some rough handling.
Chef’s Note: I’m thinking we need a new catalog tag for this phenomenon of superheroes missing meals or having meals interrupted because of superheroing – it happens often enough. What to call it though?
Chef’s Note: Also, what to call this?
Mr. Noto, your artistic talents are well-known and appreciated, by myself as well as others. And I am admittedly a comic-book food archaeologist by trade, not an art critic. But that is the saddest, most lifeless “burger” I have ever seen (I put it in quotes because I’m only somewhat certain that’s what it is supposed to be, despite Peter himself identifying it as such).
All in all, I feel pretty good about him having to throw it away. You deserve better, Peter.
