TV: WELCOME TO THE WRESTLEMANIA 29 PRE-SHOW, EXCLUSIVELY ON YOUTUBE AND WWE.COM. I'M MICHAEL COLE, AND TO MY LEFT IS THE LEGEND, JERRY "THE KING" LAWLER, AS WELL AS OUR SPECIAL GUEST, THE DAILY BUGLE'S OWN JOHN JONAH JAMESON. HOW YOU DOING, JOHN?
TV: PLEASE, CALL ME MR. JAMESON, JONAH IF YOU MUST. WELL, I'M SIMPLY AS EXCITED AS CAN BE. I'VE GOT THE BUGLE'S STAR PHOTOGRAPHER, PETER PARKER, ON THE SIDELINES SNAPPING PICTURES FOR TOMMOROW'S FRONT PAGE, AND I'M HERE CALLING THE ACTION ON THIS TREMENDOUS NIGHT.
Off-Panel(from behind Spider-Man): HEY, ARACHNAMAN! YOU'RE UP!
Panel 2: Spidey is startled and nervous, having turned to face the production assistant who called out to him in the previous panel.
Peter: WHAT?
PA: LIKE I SAID, YOU'RE UP. YOU'RE THE FIRST MAN IN THE BATTLE ROYAL FOR THE PRE-SHOW! THE PYRO'S GOING ALREADY, SO GET YOUR ASS IN GEAR!
Panel 3: As Peter walks towards the entrance, he turns to look at an Arachnaman poster on the wall. Arachnaman is a dead-on recreation of Spider-Man. Peter is nervous.
Thoughtballoon(Peter): WELL, I GUESS I'VE GOT TIME, AND IF I'M LUCKY, PUNISHER'S GOTTEN THE SAME TREATMENT.
