The Incredibles in the MC2?!

When I finally watched Ant-Man and The Wasp recently, I also watched The Incredibles 2 right afterwards. The way my mind works, I was planning potential blog posts relating to Ant-Man and The Wasp that would relate to the MC2 while viewing the latter film. That's when I realized there was a direct connection between The Incredibles and the MC2's Spider-Girl: Edna Mode, dahling!



In Spider-Girl#91 ('The Shocking Secret of the Spider Shoppe!') fashion designer Daniel Kingsley is plagued by La Fantome at the fall premiere of his 'Season of the Spider' line. It turns out Daniel stole the designs in his show from the boutique Spider Shoppe and is now being targeted by La Fantome for exploiting the images of various Spider-Women. As a result of the bad publicity, one of Kingsley's supporters- a very familiar looking woman -decides to pull their funding...



…But the discussion is interrupted by the sudden arrival of La Fantome and the woman makes a hasty exit.



I'm surprised she didn't lecture La Fantome about the dangers of wearing a cape. Spider-Girl #91 was cover dated December 2005, only a year after the release of The Incredibles. I don't think it's a stretch to think Tom Defalco and Ron Frenz were fans of the film.

Until I stop drawing crazy patterns in fiction, I remain
