What's even the hurry? It's not like he's under some big time restraint, and we find out over the next couple of strips that he doesn't even have any ideas about what he should be doing.

Crimson cloak does have super strength, so I would say they have one up on a guy who's only powers are gloves that work via child logic.

Well the Blue Fly ran around doing crimes and people thought it was Spider-Man, so maybe if Spider-Man goes around doing crimes they'll think "That can't be Spider-Man it must be someone else."

I'm usually very pro Peter just walking on the walls for no reason, but this one's loving nuts. There's no way whatever the gently caress he's doing in panel 2 is easier than just getting on your tiptoes for that cereal, and how the gently caress does he go for pouring cereal while planking instead of like turning back??

The undrawn last panel to that comic is Peter trying to come down and just faceplanting super hard into his cereal.

The face in that last panel is very much a,"drat dude, that's pretty loving racist" face.

even if he stole the giant unique diamond ornament, how does he expect to fence it? he doesn't know anything about that, or know anything in general.

I remember reading an old Human Torch story about that. A standard-issue Disgruntled Scientist decides to turn to crime, and immediately starts fantasizing about all the cool crime inventions he's going to come up with and the fortune he's going to make off it. He then tries his hand at some light burglary and fumbles immediately because he doesn't know how to deal with a burglar alarm.

He realizes he needs the help of experienced criminals to teach him the basics, but after the approach of walking into a seedy bar and going 'How do you do fellow criminals, would you like to do crime together' fails, he decides on an even better plan: dress up in an asbestos suit with an asbestos lasso and challenge the Human Torch to a fight, on the basis that once he wins he'll have successfully established his criminal credentials well enough that goons will be lining up in droves to work under him.

Not a high bar to clear, but I expect NSM to trip over it anyway.
