Spider-Man save the day...and his date?
"C.B. [Cebulski] and I met on Twitter and began to talk about food and
comics regularly," explained Kirshtein. "I on a whim, almost jokingly
asked if he could get me into Spider-Man. With no hesitation he said
sure! It's an amazing honor to be part of the legend that is Spider-Man.
It's every kid's dream!"
C.B. Cebulski, Marvel SVP of Creator & Content Development, added, "The
more we explore the similarities between art and food worlds, the more
we've discovered certain connections between chefs and comics,
especially on a creative level. Upon hearing Eli was a comic fan, asking
him to appear in a comic for us seemed like such a natural fit. The fact
Eli was also open to playing an active role in the story and helped lend
his culinary expertise to ideas on how to help Spidey out of a
super-villain jam really added to the overall experience we had making
this comic with him!"
