He's got a big metal exoskeleton, but it's the electricity that hurts poor Spidey's hand

I like that the art in no way offers any kind of visual indication of Spidey being electrocuted, more that he hurt his hand punching metal, but Stan Lee's Ghost's Ghostwriter was determined it was electrocution goddammit!

I suppose Purps is just holding out a hand in front of Luke, demonstratively, but man does it look like he's honking Luke's boob.

Nobody could possibly care about Spider-Man...unless they were related to him.

  You know, he could probably have made a lot of money developing super exoskeletons instead of burning down his boss' stores.

he wanted to murder spiderman, is all. if nsm simply wandered off and forgot about the whole situation he'd never get a chance to burn, explode, or crush the life out of him.

I mean...if one of the neighbors saw Spider-Man entering/exiting your apartment window you'd have to start looking for a new secret identity, but that doesn't stop him from doing that all the time. MonsterEnvy posted:I have to wonder Charles, along with the mystery of your power to teleport, why did you get Spider-Man involved So here's what I think, and I realize I am putting way, way more thought into it than the actual writer. Because the real reason Charles did that is "To make the reader suspect Ryland's brother." By claiming Spidey should suspect Ryland's brother, he hoped Spidey would tail the brother, which would leave him free to blow up another store. If Spidey was with the brother and got news of the store exploding, he would go "Wow I guess it really was Ryland himself after all," because he'd have no reason to suspect the chauffeur. Of course the chauffeur didn't know Spidey's wife was working at the store, which made him want to stay at the store, rather than follow Ryland's brother around (mostly anyway Spidey did give chase after he saw them through the window, but he was only at the window because he was keeping watch on MJ). When the chauffeur saw Spidey around after Ryland was...injured? Knocked out? I don't remember. Anyway, he then pretended he was taking Ryland away from the store to the hospital or whatever. And since Ryland's brother wasn't around, this too would fit the chauffeur's plan though in a different way. "I saw him take Ryland away, so Ryland's brother must be the Demolisher." So yeah it almost sort of makes sense, but again, the writers were definitely not thinking beyond "trick the reader."

Charles was the one seemingly injured. Ryland drove off with him, then the second MJ went in the store he was there to grab her.
