Site Forced To Take Down Spider-Man Daily Strip

Since 2009, the Spider-Man Crawl Space website has been uploading the rare-to-find Spider-Man newspaper strip to their website, allowing it to reach a more broader audience. The strip became far more popular and relevant than it had ever been during this period, particulary because it was one of the last mediums where you could find Peter and MJ happily married. These days, it is the only medium where that is possible, what with Spider-Girl being long cancelled.

But nothing lasts forever, and Kings Features, the publishers of the daily strip, have ordered the site to remove their complete archive library of the strip. They also requested that, if the site wishes to continue uploading the strip, they would have to pay them a fee of $120.

This is very unfortunate news as not only do most of us not get any newspapers that include the strip in the UK, not only is the strip rare to find in the U.S, but also the stirp was cut off in the middle of a big stonking cliffhanger

There is still an online prescense for the strip on lesser-known websites, but the Crawlspace provided it it's biggest mainstream exposure.
