The Everyday #166
My spider-man bag has received many compliments in the many years I’ve proudly worn it over my shoulder. “It’s made from an old duvet cover.” I’d tell people, a fact that made it a one of kind object. If there’s anything that has been in this comic nearly as often as me, it’s my Spidey bag. It went with me to New York and featured on the cover to the final Everyday minicomic, issue 12 and even popped up in an Ellerbism. It now rests peacefully in the back of my wardrobe. It will be missed.
Also, I’d like to mention for anyone who may be getting bored of the Glasto comics, there will be three more and I am trying to get them done as soon as I can so the comic can get back to more recent matters. I will try and get another comic up this Thursday, that will be the last from the Friday and the last time I will ever have to colour my checkered shirt.

I’m shocked at how sad I am about the Spidey bag. It’s like if your TMNT pencil case suddenly caught on fire.

Couldn’t you use manly sewing powers and fix the strap?

I feel your pain man. It’s always a sad, dark day when you lose a good solider. Here’s a shout out to 2 of my own sadly missed bags- Twin Peaks and Bruce Lee Game Of Death.

It’s a sad day, I’d always look at the comics with envy thinking “wish I had a Spider-Man bag”. I hope it got a Vader like funeral burning.

Man my WCW one is well more one-of-a-kind. They don’t even do them anymore (because they sold worse than warm shit)
But for reals dude, if it’s just the stitching on the strap that’s come away, any decent clothes alteration place should be able to fix that up, and pretty cheaply too. You don’t get to cry until the duvet bit itself tears in two from all your heavy Dungeons & Dragons books.

Thank you for all your heartfelt concern. Ol’ Spidey is beyond repair I’m afraid. There’s a large hole on the back where it has rubbed against my jeans for years, a big hole on the side with the strap and general fading and fraying all over. I did reattach the strap with some CND badges for the rest of the weekend but it could only last so long. It is no longer a fitting tribute to our good lord Spider-man and so it has been retired but I’m glad to see it will be remembered.

You need a fire hazard bag with fire kit inside incase of emergency
LOL

Just came here from Ellerbisms and am reading my way backwards through the archives. Anyway, Anna made a post about her panels and said “RIP Spiderbag”favourite.
Now I understand.
