Old English had two words that both meant 'spider': spinnan/spitra ("spinner") and cobbe or coppe ("round"). So a spider (spitra) can spin a cobweb (cobbeweb). Presumably in an alternate timeline, we say 'a cobbe can spin a spiderweb' and there's a Cobbeman comic book.

A photo of a cardboard sign taped to the closed door of Firestorm Books. It reads "Community meeting here Saturday @ 2. Bring friends, info, and food. Let's talk about how we can take care of each other and our community."
