hahaha! i loved it! it was just so silly.Īnother reason i liked it so much was that the way he behaved was very much like the spider-man of old, the one i grew up with. one of the guys then asks who he is and he proclaims himself to be the “bombastic bagman!”. If i remember correctly, what happens is that once he starts fighting the bad guys he becomes extremely garrulous and for no real reason delivers a barrage of silly insults and witty comments. in order to conceal his identity he simply put a bag on his head and poked two holes in it for his eyes! brilliant! sadly his only appearance was in spectacular spider-man 256, peter parker having the presence of mind not to be caught without his costume again (or perhaps having the presence of mind to realise that wearing a bag on your head might look a bit stupid). The bombastic bagman was a spontanious creation by peter parker when he was once without his costume but needed to do his superhero thing.

You may be wondering who’s this bombastic bagman? or you may know exactly who i’m talking about and have already started running!

The amazing bag man
