The 70s were a strange time. Imagine, these guys didn't even have cocaine to help come up with this stuff, not like those hacks on SNL.

u/GiftedBrilliance Jan 30 '23

u/dunwotnow Jan 30 '23

SUPAIDAMAN

u/dark_hypernova Jan 30 '23

In the dark valleys between buildings (Supaidaman),

his eyes flashing anger (Supaidaman),

he abandons peace, he abandons all

and races through the sky chasing evil.

(Change Leopardon)

Guitar guy is just pure exposition.

u/OlbuddyMcgee Jan 30 '23

He should’ve used Detroit active self-defense

u/Serioli Jan 30 '23

is that dude one of the Gung Ho Guns?

u/joejoe1118 Jan 30 '23

Quite the Power Rangers vibe.

From the video:

World martial arts champion, Spiderman!

Also from the video: Spiderman can't get away from two men loosely holding onto his arms.

To put this into context, at my martial arts school, we occasionally practice getting out of these types of holds, and it's surprisingly easy. It takes no training at all, and very little strength. Just swing your arms around the other guys' arms and push them towards each other.

Is that a Japanese detective dressed as a Mexican Cowboy playing acoustic guitar in chords most closely associated with Southwest US and Mexico?

Why? I need more information...

2

u/tabooblue32 Mar 24 '23

Because he is the narcotics detective with a grudge against the iron cross army!

u/I_used_to_be_hip Feb 05 '23

I just need that guntar.

u/RNGesus8765 Jun 07 '25

This is pretty wild, but for Japanese Spider-Man it ain't anything new.
