Spider-Man Secret Invasion # 2 of 3 (Spoilers likely)

[James Conniff]

Surprised to not see a thread on this already.

This mini may as well be called the Amazing Supporting Cast of Spider-Man, still a fun read none-the-less. What are everyone's thoughts on the mini so far...or am I the only one reading it?

SPOILERS.............













I guess we can rule out Dexter as Menace.

SPOILERS.............













I guess we can rule out Dexter as Menace.

Kinda hard for him to be Menace when across town in a car being chased down by the Skrullister-Six . More evidence falls in the Lilly is Menace category as well this issue as well. A couple moments after being off panel Menace shows up chopping skrulls and tossing around Jackpot (who hopefully is MJ).

spoilers:

we start with T-rex's trying to eat the real spidey. he wishes he was home Jackpot vs venom-skull. She helps the spidey cast out of the building. Back to harry and lilly... they run from there skrull encounter and jump in harry's car... through a window they drive. Harry comments its more dangerous to stay after lilly comments how dangerous the escape was. Jackpot now riding a car with robbie driving, Venom-skrull is chasing... they head towards the baxter building... its in bad shape. Betty has been written the story the whole time.... dexter seems pleased. Venom-Skrull still wants spidey bad.... Harry crashes... he and lilly get separated as the car explodes...... Harry is SAVED BY what looks to be MENACE Jackpot and crew are going to stark tower.... Venom-Skrull caught up and throws Jackpot through a window..... She is then attacked by MENACE. He wants to kill spidey's girlfriend... jackpot says shes not that girl. Venom-Skull threatens to kill everyone in the car because they smell of spider-man... unless one confesses to be spider-man... (Vin, Robbie, Dexter and Betty are in the car)

end of spoilers

MENACE may have just been strongly hinted at.......... Then again that was almost too blatant but it did eliminate alot of the list of suspects

i dont want to pick up minis anymore because they never actually go anywhere, but you saw harry and lily were seperated by an explosion, and that menace saves him... what do you mean seperated.

i still dont think its her. i mean where could she possibly hide all that menace gear and then save him? its too odd and too off

i mean he cant find her. then the skrull finds him then menace saves him

[Dr. Chaos]

You'd be surprised at the amount of things a woman could hide on her general person. Like a glider and corny monogrammed balls.

Alternative explanation: It's a comic book, make up your own.

And yeah, glad to see more sweetener put on top of my Lilly Menace theory.

You know, it's a shame.

The mystery is alright but Menace is still going to be just an annoyingly ****ty villian by the time he/she's outed if things keep up.

[Billy Parker]

Dexter is too old to be Menace!

I loooove Jackpot and dig the art. Reminds me of Phil Jiminez art. Maybe Menace is Carlie?

[Bradix23]

Menace is Lily trust me.

Dr. Chaos has the right idea; you can fit an amazing amount of crap into a purse, especially the huge ones they have these days. They're practically fourth dimensional.

Cool issue......I have enjoyed this mini much more than I thought I would as it is helping flesh out the supporting cast even more, one of ASM's strengths.

[yadadaimhollaing]

i kind of flipped through this issue yesterday without reading. most times i dont buy these minis though so i havent been keeping up with this. i kind of wish i did though to see the menace interaction

[matthewaos]

When I first saw the cover of the first issue I thought "huh, someone, maybe Gargan is a Skrull".

[James Conniff]

Couldn't the glider just be on a signal to follow her around or to come at the press of a button? Her gear could all be on the glider.

[TheAmazingSpidey]

Yeah, the part with Lilly was suspicious. Definitely suspicious.
