Planned Parenthood Federation of America must have realized just how cool Spidey was, because in 1976 they teamed up with the superhero for a special-edition comic dedicated to sex ed. Bizarre, but true!
The plot of this story was simple: The evil Prodigy was brainwashing young teens into believing it was fun to become teenage parents. “They’ll have babies right and left, from ignorance, just as I planned for my giant baby snatch.” Prodigy would then use those babies for child labor on another planet. What a crafty-creep!
Of course, Spider-Man foils the “Pernicious power of the Prodigy” with his clever tricks, prowness, and street-fighting skills. And with the help of three Planned Parenthood inserts, Spidey teaches young adults “What the Facts Are” on pregnancy, feelings, and even VD. They don’t call him “amazing” for nothin’.
