Even Spider-Man gets fired
Peter Parker loses his job in this economy. How to save the city and still pay rent?

Spider-Man's going to have a tough time paying the bills now.
Peter Parker will get fired by boss J. Jonah Jameson in Wednesday's issue of "Amazing Spider-Man," joining millions of Americans who have been hit hard by the economic recession.
I suspect that even Spidey sense won't help him figure out the unemployment paperwork, either.
"Peter Parker?s been through some rough times lately, with all of his deadliest foes returning, and he couldn?t lose his job at a worse time,? said Steve Wacker, a senior editor at Marvel comics. ?He?s going to struggle with unemployment and trying to save the city while he can barely afford to keep a roof over his head.?
Normally, Parker would be able to keep afloat with some freelance photography, but his credibility is shot after he was caught doctoring a photo to clear Jameson's name, the New York Post reports.
What's an unemployed, blacklisted superhero to do in this economy?
