Amazing Spider-Man (2018-) #88

Who is QUEEN GOBLIN?! For almost sixty years, Spider-Man has been defined by Goblins, and Ben Reilly has a brand-new one all his own.

This outfit seems to be entirely too much of someone’s personal fetishes (including tease and denial with this bingo). Conceptually she looks like someone had the brilliant idea of “what if a HobgoblinandDemogoblin retired together, raised a daughter and she was super horny on main?” ¹

Except of course, since Spider-man is generally a super “wholesome” comic she probably won’t even get to be horny… (damn that tease and denial thing seems to be a theme here). It is apparently set for a whole lotta panty flashing and definitely-not-tribbing-with-Black-Cat though.

What’s really bizarre about that the mostly unrelated Goblin Queen’s outfit was briefly fixed in 2014. Again, this is why you cannot trust corporations not to backslide the moment they think they have enough feminist cookies.

¹ Before anyone rushes in to tell me about how that particularly weird that would be given Demogoblin’s origin story involving (a) Hobgoblin - let me assure you that I know, and it’s 2022, we’ve all read weirder stuff on AO3.

² If you’re not sure what this refers to and the word “scissors” doesn’t clarify, I need you to be aware that it is a sex act and the Wikipedia entry has a very NSFW illustration right at the top of it: Link here
