“People say I’m just spider-powers and a pretty face I keep
behind a mask, but I’ve got more to offer. Did you know I was a teenager when I
developed a fluid that was stronger than steel? Also wrist-mounted squirt gun that
could spray that fluid several hundred yards in a splitsecond. For the work of
a teen, it’s surprising I wasn’t picked up by Super Soaker, right? But don’t
stop there. In my garage, I made a costume thin enough that I could cling to
walls through it while supportive enough that I don’t freeze my butt off on top
of skyscrapers. This is a tall one, by the way. If the webbing gives and you
fall, you might be dead before I can catch you. That happens sometimes. Before
I could even get a learner’s permit to drive, I’d built homing devices, broken
into Fantastic Four Plaza,
and… well, I caught you. So I guess the radioactive spider that bit me as a
teen was pretty smart, or criminals are getting a lot dumber. So what I’m
saying is: I could make this a very long night for you, or you could just tell
me where the old lady is.”
Snort! (Tell me where the old lady is..)
ReplyDeleteHave you seen the new Spiderman movie yet? Reviews I've read have pegged it pretty good.
Haven't yet, but have some morbid interest. Probably one of those things destined for Netflix at my household.
DeleteHe he! I had a chemistry set when I was a teenager, but all I ever made was a mess.
ReplyDeleteOh that's a wicked web you weave sir!
ReplyDeleteOhh. I am a fan of spiderman. I liked the new movie, too. Better than the last one.
ReplyDeleteBetter than Spider-Man 3? Not the highest bar to clear...
DeleteI love Spider-man but the whole teen science whiz bolt on is harder to believe than his spider powers now that you draw my attention to it. *narrow eyes*
ReplyDeleteAnd did we have to mention Spider-Man 3? The less said there the better.
