World The Lizard's sewer

[Grievous]

Behold, my fellow Lizard-enthusiasts....

sweet we now have a Lizard smilie. and it is an awesome one indeed.

 

[The Lizard]

OK, I've read a couple of Lizard-related articles lately, and unfortunately I've got some complaints about both of them...

First complaint:

The Science of Supervillains, by Lois H. Gresh and Robert Weinberg, 2005

Part of the continuing series of "The Science of..." books, which include scientific examinations of the universes of Star Trek, Star Wars, superheroes and others. I was excited to find out that there's an entire chapter devoted to the Lizard, so I ordered a copy from Amazon.

Chapter seven, "Leapin' Lizards: The Lizard" focuses almost entirely on Dr. Connors' research to grow back missing limbs on humans and whether this might someday be possible. Interesting stuff to be sure, but I was hoping for a scientific look at the Lizard's actual transformation, such as the mechanics of growing a tail and how long such a thing might take. Alas, no such luck. Maybe that kind of thing was covered in a scientific look at the Hulk or something.

Another frustrating thing was that the authors kept referring to the Lizard's origin story from ASM #6 by the title "First Lizard". The actual title of that Spidey story is "Face to Face with the Lizard". Research, people.

Second complaint:

The Classic Marvel Figurine Collection Magazine #52 : The Lizard

This is a pretty cool series of magazines from England that each come with a 3 inch metal miniature of the character being profiled. I recently got the Lizard issue of course, and as I started reading the mag, I wondered if the UK writers were going to get all the Lizard's history right. To their credit, they did pretty good up until the more recent Lizard stories.

But, in describing the story where Martha Connors died of cancer (Spider-Man: Quality of Life #4, Oct 2002), these writers apparently missed the part where Billy's cancer was caught in time and completely removed. So they claim that Curt injected Billy with the Lizard formula in Sensational Spider-Man 24 (May 2006) to try and save him from his cancer. As anyone who actually read that story knows, Curt injected Billy because his mind was under the influence of an energized meteor rock used by Stegron the dinosaur man.

See, if these writers would just come to me first, they could avoid these embarrassing errors.

Nice article, but I am dissapointed as much as you are in parts of the article. They should have read the Issue's with the lizard in them so that they would know this stuff.

From a new TV spot this morning, we got a full glimpse at the Lizard. He just looks perfect when he opens his mouth here.
Thanks to Green Goblin 1964 for posting the clip and PJBoy for the gif.

For anyone who doesn't know, he'll be in the third episode premiering March 15th titled Natural Selection.

 

[Grievous]

I'm going to try to remember to watch that on the 15th.

 

[Grievous]

we need to keep the Lizard's sewer alive people! here is something to talk about. Any here going to get the Spectaular Spider-man Lizard figure when it comes out?

At this point we don't even know if a Lizard figure is coming out. I'm sure there will be one, but we don't know yet.

 

[Grievous]

oh, well if they do come out with one I will get it won't you?

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

I defenitley am.

 

[Grievous]

I defenitley am.

yep I'm gonna get Lizard and Green Goblin.

 

[Web-Head408]

oh, well if they do come out with one I will get it won't you?

Of course I will.

 

[Grievous]

I was just thinking. I wonder if we will see Lizard in the Spidey game WOS?

 

[ironman29758]

I would want a mixture of the Ultimate Marvel Lizard, The 2003 MTV Spider-man animated series Lizard, and the Spectacular Spider-Man animated series Lizard to be in the movie

The look should be like this one

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

I was just thinking. I wonder if we will see Lizard in the Spidey game WOS?

I think it's very possible, but I don't think anybody is sure yet.

 

[Web-Head408]

Lizard's upcoming TSSM figure.

 

[Web-Head408]

Edit!

 

[Web-Head408]

Viola! After hours of intensive searching, I found some pictures of Lizard from the E3 03 trailer for SM2: The Game that are pretty much non-existent now.

Think of how much more awesome the game would have been if Lizzy had graced it.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ Agreed, also, I remember that trailer. It was kick ass.

 

[Web-Head408]

The cover art without any text for the upcoming TSSM DVD release featuring the first three episodes cut into a movie; titled 'Attack of The Lizard'.

man I have looked forever for those pics, they were cgi shots of lizard if he was going to be in SM2 right?

From the E3 03 trailer.

I'm pretty sure it's on the complete MTV Spider-Man DVD.

 

[SalaciousVC]

Anyone ever find a link to that SM2 E3 '03 trailer?

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

Anyone ever find a link to that SM2 E3 '03 trailer?

Nope, but it's on the complete first season DVD of the MTV Spider-Man animated series (bad show).

 

[SalaciousVC]

I've seen all the episodes(Crap),but I don't think its worth buying just to get a random trailer that might get uploaded to Youtube anyway

 

[Grievous]

Nope, but it's on the complete first season DVD of the MTV Spider-Man animated series (bad show).

huh MTV Spidey show, I only seen one pic and it was the one with Lizard. The model was far from classic so I thought the show would of been bad.
