This seemed familiar...

One of my favorite features from Marvel Comics is their What If? series. This past month, Marvel released a What If? issue based on one of my favorite comics, the late-80s "Spiderman vs. Wolverine". This was a truly great comic. The What If? issue takes that original comic as a starting point and posits Spiderman becoming a secret agent.

That's not the point of this post, however. Reading the issue, there was this one scene where Spiderman encounters a difficult enemy in the middle of a battle:

Wait a sec... where have I seen something like this before?

Oh, yeah....

Kind of a fine line between "homage" and "plagiarism."
