While I admit that it kind of sucks for Zachary, so far this world is apparently a good deal more polite and considerate of others than ours often is. PARTICULARLY with regard to its youth culture, which is downright civilized in comparison.
Ah yes. Socially mandated “kindness”. Doing the right thing for the wrong reasons still sucks for the poor schmuck on the receiving end, because they can see the lie.
@Kizooo: My guess, it’s supposed to be a sign that for whatever reason, Watergate never went down in the Spidyverse. I mean, when was the last time you saw anything named after Nixon in -our- timeline?
A static electricity dance…well, that’s an interesting variation on the retro-sock hop going on here.
Also, I laughed at the name “Thwip” for the Flash expy. Well done.

Also: nice fraternity name.
Well, Thwip may be condescending, but at least he’s not a TOTAL dick. (Yet.) (I’m expecting that come next page.)
Ok, so he’s not an Archy expy. In all fairness though, the girl wasn’t Veronica either.

And this is why you go with mad science instead of moping!
I’m guessing an intersection of Nixon and Church is a reference to something, though it escapes me.
Wait, but… In a world where Spider-Man is such a huge thing, wouldn’t Zachary be the most popular guy forever because he’s so much like Peter Parker?
