Scarlet Spider #3 - Spoilers and Discussion!

[One More Day]

I'm intrigued. Wonder who will be paying Houston a visit that knows Peter.

Bonus points if it's Betty Brant, which would also give Flash Thompson a reason to stop by!

Aand I like how he's not that used to wearing a costume and just keeps taking his mask off. But just to be clear, Kaine is wearing the Tron-like costume he took from Peter right? Why is it red?

According to Yost, the costume was modified with the same unstable molecules that his FF suit has and can be changed mentally, so Kaine just re-imagined it.

I'm really enjoying this series.

Excellent book for starters too.

My wish is that we see Kaine's Justice more Brutal than Peter's. I'd like to see a hero follow his own path on how he punishes criminals. Even a death to an extremely bad person would be nice.

Holy shit, this is a dumb post. Especially because I'm in Texas.

Yeah. Texas is a lot better than I thought. To be fair, though, I live in Northern Texas, DFW area. There are still some parts hostile to gays, even around Dallas and Fort Worth, the latter even seemingly becoming Austin-like.

Holy shit, I could careless where you are from, your post was made of ignorance.

Well he hanged some one up side down. That's a start.

His justice is more brutal than Peter's, but he's trying to imitate Peter at the same time.

He handled the mugger in a harsher way than how Peter would have, but he was proud of himself thinking that Spider-Man would have done the same. Remember how he was prepared to kill the assassin though and he tried to kill the fire guy in #2. His justice is definitely harsher.

Two things. One, it seems odd that anyone would recognize Kaine, what with the loss of facial scars and body mass.

Did he lose the mass? I know in Spider-Island he was drawn the same as Peter, and as he's not hulking in Scarlet Spider either but in issue #1 I think someone describes him as a 'big guy'? Unless it was the short doctor who said it...

[John Ossie]

It's going that direction. Peter and his clones have a genetic predisposition toward redheads.

But where there's redheads and beer, can Wolverine be far behind?

Yeah it does seem to be heading in that direction which is why I'm calling it now lol.

As for Wolverine that would be interesting wouldn't it? lol

I think a trip to Houston would be a great fit for Wolverine. He already loves to wear cowboy hats at bars!

I don't think he's deliberately trying to imitate Peter so much as his newfound conscience is getting the better of him. Kaine's in kind of an odd position now that his mind is clear. It's freed him up to make better decisions, which means making tough ones. He's still predisposed to maim and kill, but now he knows it's wrong.

I don't get how taking that Anti-Venom bath made his mind clear. Sure I can understand the hideous scars disappearing and whatnot. Maybe Kaine was just a shallow, shallow man at heart

Also if anti-Venom can cure Kaine like this, then A LOT of characters should be taking a dip in it, such as Madame Web! It could cure her blindness!

I wouldn't be surprised if they had Wolverine appear in at least one issue.

It cured Kaine's specific problem, which was clone degeneration, so it wouldn't work for Madame Webb.

As for why Kaine thinks more clearly now, it was established in Lost Years that the pain from his condition was driving him insane. Think it about it like a migraine and multiply by a factor of a thousand. So yeah, clear that up and you're going to see things much, much differently.

What is LOST YEARS?
Does it explain why Peter Parker and his genetic duplicates have a fetish for gingers?
