BTW, I wasn't even aware that "spider-sense" had anything to do with Sipderman;
Huh. But all of us read it that way...
No, it's shiny! I like to meet new people. They've all got stories...

Thanks for all the fish.
Thing is, deb, everyone else will automatically equate 'spider-sense' with Spiderman. And it might throw people out of the story.

Yeah, it caught at the corner of my conscious brain, and I couldn't help wondering about it.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Anyone here old enough to remember when Spiderman was introduced? Because I'm totally ignorant of comics.
Easy enough to change the phrase, certainly, but shit, I hate to. Because if you take the #%%$#$# pop culture reference out of it, it's precisely how she senses danger coming her way.

I should change that anyway, I suppose, since she certainly wouldn't be a Spiderman type (she's way more of a sitar type), and if everyone's going to make that association.....
Goddamnit.

Plus in the last 10 years or so, Marvel's done a huge push to publicize Spidey. Hence the clone saga and the baby--heck, Peter and MJ's wedding had the royal treatment. I think a lot of Buffistas are at least marginally comic geeks, and Spider-man is nearly as iconic as Batman and Superman.
