Marvel's Spider-Man

Subtitle By: de_larocha

What? Who? Vulture?

Oh, right. I have to get to school early today.

Lots to do. Very...

important.

One more second.

Photosynthesis!

Oh, must have dozed off again.

Gotta make lunch before I...

Aww. What would I do without you, Aunt May?

What would I do without you, Aunt May?

Yeah, I'm awake. Thanks for checking.

I was just finishing up my project for Dr. Octavius' class.

I'll do my best. Love you too.

Doesn't matter that I came up with this tracer idea

so Spidey could keep track of bad guys.

This baby's gonna get Peter Parker an "A"!

Electrostatic stickiness... check.

Range detection? Still needs work. But I should be able to fix that.

Unless I'm fired for not cleaning this place up like Max asked.

Purrr-fect.

Hey, Harry. It's Pete.

Not gonna make our breakfast powwow

'cause I had to get to school early.

But let's meet there for lunch. See ya later.

Hmm? Hmm.

Why?

And really, how often does a ceiling get cleaned?

Uh-oh.

Mm. I wonder what they want with you.

Eh, doesn't matter, as long as I get paid.

Hi. Something tells me you don't have a visitor's pass.

Mm, you got me. Here.

Really? Didn't think it'd be si... Aah!

Bad guys never give up that easy.

Ugh! You're quick.

But you know what they say about letting a black cat

cross your path, right?

Time to buy Halloween candy?

Nope. Bad luck.

Nice try. But I don't believe in luck... good, bad, or otherwise.

Especially when I can just web the exit shut.

Getting caught in my own web isn't bad luck, just bad timing.

Okay, lady, nice try, but you're not dealing with an amateur here. Aah!

This was fun, Spider-Man.

Maybe we can do it again sometime.

Ha! Take that, bad luck.

Uh-oh.

Need something to break the current flow!

I g-guess that c-could've

been a l-lot worse.

Uh-oh.

Huh? Hmm? This place is a mess.

That was some earthquake, huh?

I hired you to clean my office, Peter, not make it messier.

Where's my V-252?

V-252? The canister with the black liquid inside.

Oh, that. I didn't want it to get damaged when I cleaned, so I put it in the vault.

Okay. Well, get it back soon.

That was acquired from the Space Administration,

and it is a pet project of mine.

I am this close to stabilizing the atom.

And if all goes as planned,

V-252 will be the first new element

added to the periodic table in years.

You got it, Max. It'll be back by the end of the day.

Oh, and don't forget. You promised to help me later

with the interviews regarding Harry's investigation.

I'll be here.

Can't be late.

Where are you off to, Miss Kitty?

Gotta find you before you cause any more trouble.

Oh. Sorry, Dr. Octavius. Ugh!

Mr. Parker, I assume you're running around the last minute,

trying to finish your science project for my class?

No, sir. I've been working on it for days. It's all done.

Hmm.

Almost done.

Just a few little adjustments here and there. But you're gonna love it.

If I can get it back.

Ugh! Love is for starry-eyed dreamers, Mr. Parker.

It has nothing to do with science.

You remember that. Right.

Love is for dreamy-eyed starfish. Got it.

Hmm!

Just need to adjust the motion vectors, and...

Aha!

You're at the computer store. Gotcha.

Got who?

Yeah, what ya got there, Pete?

Mm, uh...

Huh? Oh, uh, nothing.

Just my project for Dr. Octavius' class.

Well, it better be on fleek, Pete.

You know how Otto gets when he's disappointed.

I know, I know.

I have to get the fleek on.

Uh, 'cause it's... I mean... I'm still working on it.

Are we sure we want this slacker in our study group?

Yeah. He's cool. Give him time.

You are still down with study group today, right?

Study group? Right. Sure. No. Wouldn't miss it.

I'll be there. Mr. Slott, can we take a bathroom break?

Huh? Class hasn't even started yet.

Even better.

Whoever she is, this Black Cat seems to have an even busier day than I do.

Excuse me. Nothing to see here.

Sorry. That was your foot, wasn't it? Huh? What are you doing?

Nice shirt. Coming through! Hey!

No cutsies! Back of the line, pal!

Stop her! She just stole the next generation phone prototype!

Way ahead of ya, pal! Don't look in her eyes. Don't look in her eyes.

Don't look in her eyes. Yoo-hoo!

I looked in her eyes.

Whoops. Sorry. It wasn't me.

Well, it was, but she gave me the bad luck.

But I don't believe in bad luck, so never mind. Huh?

Who makes a cardboard wall?

Mwah!

Free phones for everyone!

Free phones? Yeah!

All right! Excuse me! Out of my way!

I have to get to Black Cat before she...

Gone again!

Come on, Spidey. You're better than this.

Need to widen the locator range.

Hey, I know you. You're that new hero guy.

How about an interview for my school paper?

Oh, Max's interviews!

Uh, sorry. No comment. Ohh.

But you can read more about me on my blog.

Once I start a blog!

Sorry.

Oh, hey, Peter. Huh?

Gwen. Hi.

This is my Uncle Raymond.

Uncle Raymond, Peter Parker.

Nice to meet you, Mr., uh...

Warren.

Warren.

As in Professor Raymond Warren from Empire State?

The same Raymond Warren who is, uh,

lucky to have Gwen as a niece?

The very same. I'm very proud of this young lady.

She's beginning to rival even my own work

with her achievements in DNA and gene splicing.

Not quite, Uncle Raymond.

But I'm trying.

Well, I think you're Max's first interview,

so let me show you in.

Max, this is Professor Raymond Warren.

Ah, Mr. Warren. I appreciate you taking the time to come in.

Please, it's Raymond.

And I was happy to.

Max, is this an output level control circuit?

It is. Could I borrow it?

Sure. You don't mind if Peter sticks around, do ya?

He's part of the investigation team.

Of course. I know you're looking

to clear Harry Osborn of any wrongdoing,

but I must say, I'm not sure how much help I can be.

I'm just a substitute teacher at Midtown now,

and didn't have much interaction with the boy.

But if it means anything, he always seemed like a fine young man to me.

Well, I'm sure he'd appreciate that, as do I.

Here, kitty, kitty. Peter, did you say something?

Uh-huh?

Oh.

I said, uh, "As Harry's peer, I'm giddy, giddy."

While I'm here, Max...

And I hope this isn't out of line...

I was wondering if there were any openings here at Horizon.

My niece speaks highly of your school,

and I'd love the chance to work with you and your staff.

I've followed your career, Raymond.

Some very impressive work. Thank you.

I was saddened to hear about the accusations at Empire State.

Yes. That I stole someone else's work.

Well, let me assure you that's a lie.

I was never even officially charged.

I'm sure, but I'm afraid the ethics committee

would never approve of you working here.

At least while the matter is being investigated.

Oh. Well, surely you can appreciate my situation, Max.

Has no one ever questioned your...

I'm sorry, Raymond. The answer is no.

I see.

Very well.

The comic book shop.

Peter, would you mind showing Professor Warren out?

Yeah. Of course. Great timing.

Thank you for your time, Max.

Of course, Raymond. Pleasure meeting you.

This way, Professor. Huh?

Yeah!

This baby just got me an A-plus in Otto's class!

High fives!

Have a good day, sir. Oh, I plan to.

Thanks, old dude! Ow! Hey!

Hmm.
