that's the one where sauron tries to turn everyone into dinosaurs right

because replace sauron with the lizard and dinosaurs with more lizards and I could see that being where this arc is heading

I don't want to fix my arm, I want to turn people into lizards.

So Spider-man couldn't just give blood to Connors, but can to Banner who has the same rare blood condition?

Maybe now he turns into the lizard whenever he gets angry?

Specifically when he gets angry about his missing arm.

The secret is he's always angry.

Thats like my high school concept of a character who's power to summon a zombie would manifest in times of fear. But he's extremely scared of zombies so it would just make it stronger and bigger and scarier, etc.

That is such a high school idea, I love it.

As one of my brother's college homework papers said, "note: Peter Parker was a chemistry whiz, not physics." He got to calculate Gewn Stacy's death.

I'm going to assume the plan is "use IF as flypaper to draw the Claw out" with some justification of protecting people like Woo who would be targeted instead. Bonus points if it's "we planned this all out between Thursday and Friday, he's in on it."

Bitten by a radioactive fanboy, he stops following Spider-Man only to blog about it or have sex with his supermodel wife who's totally real.

Maybe Peter kinda deserved that rear end kicking.

I donno, if I walked into Wing's dojo having never seen a picture of her and found three women with swords out as if they're sparring, I'd ask "Is one of you Colleen Wing" too.
