Maybe this is what comes OUT of a "Ring of Fire"?
I try not to be judgmental, but I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that "crapping fire" is not a bona-fide super power:
At least the flaming feces are in handy pellet form, useful (presumably) for flinging at enemies. Although given the way Spidey is cringing in horror, I doubt that's going to be happening any time soon.

Mashup 19: Any landing you can walk away from …
Fire and steel rain from the skies in this week's edition of the Monday Mashup, wherein I take one (and only one!) panel from each of ten randomly selected comic books to make a somewhat coherent story. With that we jump right into our tale of secret government tech and drunken bar fights.

Comic book cameo, Howard Stern edition
So I'm reading through my Jack Kirby "Silver Star" compilation, and who do I see making a guest appearance as a tripped-out drug punk but Howard Stern, famous shock jock? Here's the panel in question alongside a reference photo.
I bought a Sirius satellite radio just to hear Stern, so I'm definitely what you'd call a fan. But even I wasn't sure at first this character was based off of his appearance, until I saw him get the snot kicked out of him by the highly patriotic and upright Silver Star, which clenched it. I bet ol' Jack was trying to get in good with the Comics Code Authority and his publishers thought showing Howard getting smacked around would be the way to go.
