"Too gay for Captain Nemesis" AND "Captain Asshole..." Gold, and he should have another one: Overlord Asshole.

Notice that Jennifer's crush didn't stop at Ben, but at seemingly any boy who would risk their lives to save her? (Seemingly since this is the first and possibly only appearance of Darkfall's vampire.) Enter Kevin Ethan Levin. If Gwen hadn't stepped in, think our resident 'anti-hero' would've found himself picking up his teeth off the pavement?

JJ's appearance in this was definitely memorable, and worthy of 'Best J. Jonah Jameson' award from beginning to end as he kept putting down Ben at every opportunity while building up Captain Nemesis until the end...though he still kept on putting down Ben. And I was able to see that projection Julie mentioned when Ben made that statement that should be one of his many quotes-though Gwen did reassure Ben that he could calm down, and that it was over. I'm very pleased that Julie is going to be a fixture in Ben's world for a long time to come, as Goop stated after rescuing her 'You're my girl.' (I did find it hilarious that Julie was taking out her rage on Jennifer during tennis practice even if the moment ended on a sour note-her kidnapping.) Plus, Ben's relationships with Gwen and Kevin are still solid despite any hero-worshipping he may have had during the course of the episode.
