There are a few things off about this product. The name Spider Person, obviously. Spider person’s random team up with Lara Croft. And the lack of plural in 'Various Size Included'. But the most maddening thing is that, despite the huge deal made of Tomb Raider on the cover, all you get of Lara Croft is a few crummy stickers of the Cradle of Life logo, and a quarter of those are back-to-front.

This could be just a shoddy pirated piece of merchandise, but there is another possibility. As making Spider-Man gender neutral would not be done lightly maybe the 'Spider Person' sticker book is a prototype from a cancelled cross-over story where Lara Croft takes over Spider-Man’s role. And while the Spider Person on the cover clearly has pecs and not grotesque plastic boobs, I can’t quite let go of the idea…there have been more messed up crossovers (Superman and Muhammad Ali, for example).

No, that’s not likely at all. I’ll stop trying to find things to say about this sticker book now.
