In the early years of Amazing Spider-Man, Flash & Liz could magically show up ANYWHERE Peter Parker was. It didn't have to be at or even near Midtown High. It was like their mutant power. Outside the Daily Bugle? The circus? At a museum exhibit about reptiles? Randomly on any street in Manhattan, one of the most densely populated cities in the world? Bam! They'd be there.



And Flash would say, "Puny Parker? What's HE doing here?"

And Liz would turn her head away from Flash and have some thought about Peter and his soap opera-ish troubles. (She seemed to have intimate knowledge of whenever Aunt May was in the hospital.)



Maybe they were secretly stalking him?



Seriously. If there were a scene where Peter found himself on the MOON, I wouldn't bat an eye if Flash & Liz strolled by in space suits.

"Hey, Parker! Maybe in zero gravity you'd finally be able to throw a football!"

"It's not zero gravity, lunkhead. The gravity on the moon's just low. Like your IQ!"

"That's it, bookworm, get ready to eat moon-dirt!"

"Cut it out, you two. Come along Flash. (Poor Peter. I hope his Aunt gets over her lunar pneumonia...)"



See? It writes itself.
