So today I finally got to to see Spider-Man 3 on THE BIG SCREEN. ( Don't tell anyone but I saw it the first time on a very, very clear bootleg. Hey, I'm ghetto, thats how I roll.) It was even more amazing than my first viewing, I just wished I had my glasses on me.
Since my little cousins were going with me I kind of wanted to make it a little special for them and get 3 matching T-shirts with the Black Spidey chest insignia. Ya know ? The "Venom" shirt ( I prefer to think of it as Black Spidey). Ever since I discovered the local Wal-Mart had a good number of superhero t-shirts I'd see on 80stees.com, just for half the price ( still love that site though) I've been buying like crazy.
So anyways there weren't any that would fit me or my 4 year old cousin so I only managed to get a size small for my other cousin. Its my fault though, they previously had my size but it was only with the gray spider, I want it white dang it, I'm a purist. I did get a really cool JLA tee though , with the all time greatest line up (Screw You Superman).

Anyways the 4 year old comes equipped with his own Spider-Man t-shirt so he doesn't care but the 9 year old beams up when I toss him the black spidey shirt.Which brings me back to the reason I made this post in the first place. Seeing all the Fantastic Four and Spider Man posters reminds me of a t-shirt I bought during the summer before my sophomore year of college. It was a class Surfer cover where he faced off against Spidey. The logo was rhinestoned or bedazzled or whatever and it was manufactured by Ecko Unlimited while they had the Marvel license. Never cared for anything Ecko, but this shirt and the Black Panther tee I copped alongside it were both genius. I cherished it, Ladies loved it, Men feared it (literally stunned by its sheer awesomeness). It was all good until I acidentally got it bleached or something and a hole popped up in it. Oddly enough, I still have the Panther shirt.
I'm not Ebay literate, but I was hoping I might get one of these beloved tee's. If anyone happens upon this post and knows where I can find it, just "drop me a line and I'll holler it back."
