I LOVED Spider-Ham as a kid.
But… why are they ALL pigs in this image? Captain America was “Captain Americat” and the Fantastic Four were the “Fantastic Fur” ( I believe Thing was a bear, Invisible Girl was Invisible Gorilla and Mr. F was a moose.) And I think Iron Man was “Iron Mandrill” or “Iron Manatee” or somethin’…
They’re the “Ultimate” versions.
It DEFINITELY looks too much like Cerebus. There’s gonna be a lawsuit, mark my words.
Yeah, they better have some sort of note about these being the “Ultimate” versions, because if the continuity doesn’t jibe exactly with my twenty-year-old Marvel Tails and Peter Porker books, I will boycott Marvel forever.
(I’m might be joking, I don’t really know.)
As I hit the comment button, I was thinking to myself, “Please don’t let me have to be the one to point out that most of the rest of the Spider-Ham universe weren’t pigs.” Captain Americat, Iron Mouse… hell, even Mary Jane was a water buffalo.
