I hate to point this out, Spider, but two of those guys are shooting right at you, and you’re not under cover at all. Is this your last issue?

His cloak is bullet-proof?

He’s got plot armour!!!

Though I have to wonder as The Spider if he’s shot does his arms and legs curl up?

Yes, the girl is Claudine Longet.

Nah, the Spider got shot up again and again. Really, by the end of his career, he must have jingled when he walked.

Hmm, I seem to recall this as the issue with the mad scientist using his death ray to create an army of criminals to conquer America.

Yep, here we go!: The Terror’s Legions wear steel suits and carry death-rays, raiding
prisons to gather a criminal mob to loot the Catskills and then march on New York City!

It’s OK, CNN said the Terror’s Legions were “mostly peaceful.”
Eric Hinkle

Hah!

Really though Manhattan gets assaulted and virtually depopulated by rampaging monsters, vengeful mad scientists, and greedy mobsters so many times in the Spider novels that after a while you wonder why everyone still alive doesn’t just evacuate to save their lives.

They’re relatives of the same people who keep inviting Jessica Fletcher to weddings and birthday parties?
