The Daily Bugle viral tumblr page
continues to tease the ever growing Spider-Man’s villain roster. This time they
tease a Professor Miles Warren, who’s more commonly known by the Spider-Man
fans as Jackal.
In the comics, the Jackal tries to clone Gwen
Stacy, for whom he has an unrequited love, after her death at the hands of the
Green Goblin, but accidentally ends up cloning Peter Parker, which many years
later led to one of Spider-Man’s more noticeable storylines, The Clone Saga.
Ken Ellis who wrote this article is also from the pages of The Clone Saga.

Manhattan’s Empire State
University announced a new class for the 2014 fall semester in advanced
biogenetics that will actually require the successful cloning of a living
creature. Introduction to Live Cloning, taught by noted geneticist Professor
Miles Warren, is the first class of its kind anywhere in the world.
When asked about the ethical
aspects of teaching a class on how to clone living cells, Warren said, “Our
responsibility is to educate our students and prepare them for life. For those
who study genetics or biology, cloning will be a fact of life.”
The ethical aspects of cloning
are irrelevant to Warren, who added, “We are cloning single-celled amoeba.
Maybe one day we’ll work our way up to mice. There is no ethical dilemma. Save
your red flag for when I start cloning co-eds…”
