Episode 32. Eddie and James B discuss two Lee/Romita issues from the summer of 1967 in which Frederick Foswell joins the Kingpin instead of trying to take over as the head of the mob. Other notable moments include: The Kingpin kidnapping J. Jonah Jameson and trying to drown JJJ and Spidey, the first appearance of Joe Robertson (which is ignored by Eddie), and the death of a recurring character suffering a heroic death (hint: it is not Irving Forbush). Also a new sponsor joins the podcast.
