Read it horizontally, not vertically. Also of course it was Ant Man

if the panels are
123

the reading order that makes the most sense to me is 134256

Edit: I missed the phrase "three hits" in the first panel, makes more sense now.

Not only is Spidey hilariously incompetent, so is Ant Man. Punch someone four times before actually seeing who they are.

Hank Pym is well known for punching people without forethought or care.

I'm going to imagine the core plot of Civil War was that everyone involved simply wasn't paying attention to who they were punching.

Actually Spider-Men in your house is good because they'll keep the place clear of annoying pests that would otherwise overrun the place :eng101:

Hell.
Fucking.
Yes.
A guy in a Spider-Man outfit enters the building through the roof and people are only willing to 50/50 on him actually being Spider-Man.

Or they do know it's him and this his how they greet him every time he comes to visit.

Tangentially related, one of my favorite running gags will always be that Spider-Man is broke:





Not entirely sure on the source sorry beyond being from a couple of the different Avengers relaunches from the last few years. Also searching for this brought me the following panel from this free comic book about banking

The very first appearance of Spidey he was trying to get the FF to let him join because he thought they made good salaries in the Superhero biz. So being broke is kinda one of Pete's defining characteristics...

I know, it's been a running theme from the early days (I still remember an issue where he gets a big bonus check from the Bugle, then runs into his landlady who basically takes the entire thing away from him because he was behind on his rent, leaving him penniless again :allears:) and I love it's never really changed.

Look at the Avenger's panel. It's the same setup down to the dark room. Only this time it's Iron Man punchign him. Or was it Iron Jonah?

It's cool how radiation, when administered via spider venom, gives you superpowers, yet the same radiation administered via jizz will kill you. Lowkey slut shaming from Marvel Comics.
