The “Spider-Man Pointing at Spider-Man” meme, 1967

In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Spider-Man Pointing at Spider-Man” is an epic card of the Memes World series 70, number 20749 of the collection, and the 1st best-known meme of its 10 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.

What does the “Spider-Man Pointing at Spider-Man” meme mean?

The edit labels two identical things each accusing the other of being the copy: two apps with the same features, two parties with the same platform, two colleagues passing the blame for one mistake. The captions placed on each figure do all the work, and the symmetry of the shot makes a verdict impossible. It is also the most concise form of hypocrisy made visible.

Where does the “Spider-Man Pointing at Spider-Man” meme come from?

The Spider-Man animated series produced by Grantray-Lawrence Animation began airing in 1967; the episode “Double Identity” features a crook disguised as Spider-Man, hence the confrontation between two identical silhouettes. The extremely frugal animation of that production, which reused shots and kept movement to a minimum, paradoxically yielded a perfectly legible still image, which makes it an ideal caption surface. The shot has circulated as a meme since the early 2010s, first on image boards and then as a two-label annotation format. Its recognition is now such that official productions of the character have referenced it.
