Anybody else think that Spider-Carnage from the 90s animated series was kind of a precursor to the Batman Who Laughs.
I'm not saying that the Batman Who Laughs was inspired by it. It might have been but there is no evidence.
Still they are kind of the same story. Hero in another universe, whose life is even more tragic, then merges with their most evil enemy, goes on to destroy their city and then threatens to destroy every single universe.
See for yourself.
I think it's a shame that so many people rip on Spider-Man tas these days. Yeah it was cheesy, but it was so ahead of its time in other ways. This, the Spider-Verse which it created, plus it was the first to do story arcs. It was a trailblazer in a lot of ways.
