When Should Spider-Man Take the Subway Instead of Web-Swinging‪?‬ Modern Muckraker

    • Comedy

If with great power comes great responsibility, is it not Spider-Man's duty to traverse New York City as efficiently as possible? Surely situations exist where utilizing the expansive MTA can be more beneficial to Peter Parker than web-swinging across the city. On today's episode of Modern Muckraker, we determine precisely when and where Spider-Man is better of swiping his card than slinging his webs.
