Toyfare: The Toy Magazine #156
Spider-Man: The Musical is a disaster in the making—over budget, understaffed, and now starring the wall-crawler himself after the lead actor bolts. With Bono writing the songs and the villains doubling as crew, Spider-Man takes the stage without a single lyric memorized. When Bono, dressed as the Green Goblin, attacks to protest the show’s direction, the curtain rises on a battle that’s as much performance as it is peril.

The Illuminati's production of Spider-Man: The Musical is way over budget and the lead actor has walked out. They convince Spider-Man to fill in by explaining if he doesn't, he will be owned by Broadway. He is unimpressed with Mary Jane. His villains fill in as the crew. Bono has written the songs. There is no time to rehearse, so Spider-Man is thrown on the stage without knowing the lyrics. Bono dresses up as Green Goblin and attacks Spider-Man and Mary Jane for ruining his songs.
