Summary:
Legendary director Alfred Peacock has acquired the rights to bring Spider-Ham's spectacular story to the silver screen. But Spider-Ham didn't sell those rights, and Peacock is getting the origin all wrong and making our hero out to be a monstrous menace! Once he catches wind of the perilous production, Peter Porker uses his Daily Beagle connections to secure on-set credentials, where he not so subtly tries to improve the film's depiction of his alter ego. In graphic novel format.

Booklist - 05/01/2023 Everyone's favorite superpowered ham is back for an all-new adventure, with the same silliness fans of the first volume will expect. Peter Porker's friend Mary Jane Waterbuffalo runs into our hero on her way to Hollywood to star in the brand new movie Swinester: The Totally Authorized and Legitimate Spider-Ham Story. She shares the news of her casting, and Spider-Ham instantly questions the legitimacy of the movie, since he's certainly never authorized anything! He travels with her to Hollywood, where he discovers his suspicions where correct; there's definitely something sinister going on with this production. Full of jokes and over-the-top humor, this sequel will leave readers squealing with laughter, and Amin's colorful cartoon artwork is the perfect match for the humorous tone of the story. Young Spider-Man fans who like their web-slinger stories on the silly side will want to join Spider-Ham and Mary Jane Waterbuffalo as they investigate this mysterious movie set and kick some serious butt in the process! - Copyright 2023 Booklist.
