Paul Rabin just can’t get a break in today’s Superman\/Spider-Man, or today’s Amazing Spider-Man #25 (Spoilers)<\/p>\n

Article Summary
\nPaul Rabin faces more misfortune in Superman\/Spider-Man and Amazing Spider-Man #25 this week.
\nPower Girl goes on a blind date with Paul, but things quickly spiral with a Punisher intervention.
\nFans still resent Paul Rabin for his controversial romance with Mary Jane Watson in Spider-Man comics.
\nMistaken identity and further mishaps leave Paul Rabin struggling for respect in both universes. <\/p>\n

In today’s Superman\/Spider-Man from DC Comics, Power Girl is on a date. But it’s not with Spider-Man. It’s not even with The Punisher, even though it’s a Power Girl\/Punisher crossover called “Blind Date” from Gail Simone and Belen Ortega. Instead, it’s a blind date with\u2026<\/p>\n

\"Paul<\/a>POWER GIRL & THE PUNISHER “BLIND DATE”<\/p>\n

Paul Rabin.<\/a> The ex-boyfriend of Mary Jane Watson, who she left Peter Parker for, and then had kids with (though it turns out they weren’t real). And as a result hated by the Spider-Man fanbase who just want Mary Jane Watson back.<\/p>\n

\"Paul<\/a>POWER GIRL & THE PUNISHER “BLIND DATE”<\/p>\n

Ponytail Boy indeed. He has been called a lot worse. And it looks like Power Girl is basically on their side. So it’s time for The Punisher to make an intervention.<\/p>\n

\"Paul<\/a>POWER GIRL & THE PUNISHER “BLIND DATE”<\/p>\n

Which is a bit much, even for Power Girl, as a way to get out of this. She has some morals after all\u2026<\/p>\n

But it turns out it’s a case of mistaken identity. Paul Rabin does look like someone else in the DC Universe it seems\u2026<\/p>\n

Vandal Savage? Million year old Police Commissioner of Gotham City. I mean, beard, ponytail, sure, but\u2026<\/p>\n

\"Working<\/a>Batman #3 by Matt Fraction and Jorge Jimenez<\/p>\n

That’s a whole different story, right?<\/p>\n

\"Paul<\/a>POWER GIRL & THE PUNISHER “BLIND DATE”<\/p>\n

I mean, it’s not like Mary Jane Watson doesn’t have her own problems with exes in this crossover\u2026<\/p>\n

\"Bridges,<\/a>LOIS LANE & MARY JANE: “THE WORLD’S FINEST”<\/p>\n

Might she have a better chance with Flash Thompson over in today’s Amazing Spider-Man #25?<\/p>\n

Though Paul Rabin is not doing too great their either\u2026<\/p>\n
