<p>But a funny thing happened as I began to look for more examples of papercraft on the internet.  I discovered that there was a serious lack of any comic book related papercraft.</p>
<p> Why?</p>
<p>Is it because this is a more traditional Japanese past time?  Is it because comic book fans don&#8217;t care?  Or is it all part of that Martian ritual?  If we learned anything from cartoons and science fiction, it&#8217;s that you can&#8217;t trust a Marian (except, of course, J&#8217;onn J&#8217;onzz). </p>
<p>The closest I could come to finding a good comic book papercraft was this <a href="http://paperkraft.blogspot.com/2008/02/iron-man-papercraft.html" title="IronMan Papercraft">IronMan</a>.  Which is an excellent example.  But I want more!  I want to see some clever papercraft involving Batman or Doc Ock. </p>
<p>I want to see a paper Spider-Man swinging his way through NYC. </p>
<p>Is this really too much to ask?</p>
<p>In the meantime I will have to sit back knowing that anime fans are <a href="http://june.blog14.fc2.com/blog-category-2.html" title="Gundam papercraft">way ahead</a> of comic book fans. </p>
