In panel four, they are injecting the patient with "anti-dog-powers serum", which prevents you from developing dog-themed superpowers after being bitten by a radioactive dog.

About the spiderman lore: did you ever think about, where the spinneret is located in the spider's body? Hint: It's not the wrist.

It clearly wasn’t a radioactive dog.

One of my favorite scenes in Spider-Man No Way home was the three Spider-Mans (the correct pluralization because ‘Spider-Man’ is a title, not an object) talking about how Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man’s web-goo shoots out of him, while Andrew Garfield and Tom Holland are totally grossed out by that while trying to be like, “oh, no man… that’s totally cool we’re just ‘interested’” trying to be supportive in a heartfelt way.

And how Andrew Garfield was kind of interested in a creepy way, and Tom Holland was more depressed because he has to hustle himself out to a rich techno daddy to afford to keep making his.

Edit: I was really thinking about this, because Tom Holland’s aunt May was probably in a rent stabilized apartment, I bet they were on SNAP, and I was wondering if his SNAP benefits would pay for his webgoo materials. That kid had serious financial issues.

(Edit 2: And, no, I’m not hating on people who are on public benefits. A gigantic amount of people in NYC are. I certainly was almost the entire 25 years I lived there. Public benefits IN NYC are amazing! You can hardly afford to live there if you don’t receive them. Rental assistance, food assistance, free healthcare! Public assistance benefits in NYC are AWESOME!)

but, still… NYC can be a very weird and very rough place… still, there’s nowhere on earth I’d rather live

Rabies man

Does whatever

The rabies can

Getting bit by a radioactive domesticated dog leads to having the power to sing castrato when your testicles suddenly disappear.

I didn't get it until I read the transcript. I thought that the second panel was a jab with barbed wire (tetanus risk) and that the joke was basically "if your body is punctured, be sure to treat it by puncturing your body".

I actually think I find that reading more fun than the intended one.

Right hand, left arm? I thought this injection was applied locally
