Denro, who should be on his way back from a comic book convention in New York, sent me a promo for a new Broadway musical that has both of us asking, “what is this?” Just when you would be expecting to see Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker, or Dickens’ A Christmas Carol, we get Spider-Man??
With a score by Bono, and direction by Julie Taymor, the production certainly has credentials, but the fanboy in me can’t help but wonder if they drew some inspiration from Spider-Man’s 1972 Rockomic…!
