- Two men. One in a gray Armani suit, the other in Italian leather pants and silk poet's shirt.
- My fault -- all my fault! If only I had stopped him when I could have! But I didn't -- and now -- Uncle Ben -- is dead.....
- Say! You don't happen to be related to another sunshine boy named J. Jonah Jameson, do you?
- Hi, Smokey Boy!
- I just dropped by to congratulate you on a perfect record! So far you've been 100 % wrong about me! I've got to hand it to you -- I'll bet it's not easy to make a fool out of yourself all the time!
- Fate gave me some terrific super-powers, and I realize now that it's my duty to use them... without doubt... without hesitation!! ...and that means Spider-Man is going into action again! I'll fight as I've never fought before!! Nothing will stop me now! For I know at last that a man can't change his destiny... and I was born to be... Spider-Man!!!
- I might as well face it... being Spider-Man is just plain habit-forming! It's like going out with girls!.. I can't give it up!
- There's no way out! She'd never have me as I am--and I just can't give up being Spider-Man! So, she'll end up marrying Leeds--and living the quiet, uneventful life she dreams of! There's only one thing I've got to figure out--how do I forget about--the girl I love??
- I've always felt I was partly responsible for the death of Uncle Ben, because he was killed by a criminal whom I didn't catch! And now--Aunt May! The two people I've loved most in the world--who were like my own father and mother to me--! Yet, their love for me--their kindness to me-- has brought them nothing but--tragedy! But it can't happen again! It mustn't! It mustn't! Not to Aunt May!! She's been too good--too kind--! I can't pay her back-- like this!! There must be some way to save her! There must be! And I'll find it! Somewhere, somehow--I'll find it! No matter what the cost--I'll save her!
- Anyone can win a fight--when the odds--are easy! It's when the going's tough--when there seems to be no chance--that's when--it counts!
- Iron! Iron's a metal! And his punch felt like metal! It's a long shot -- but it could be -- the Molten Man! I'd bet on it!
- Let's talk about your costume! Those red longjohns break me up... but I liked your old yellow duds better!
- Have no fear! Spidey is here!
- Know why I hate you, Leeds--? Because you have the right to propose to Betty! The shadow of--Spider-Man--isn't standing between you!
- Well, wobble my webs and call me shaky! It's Goldilocks -- the hippest hammer in the west!
- Boy! No wonder you covered your head the way you did! I don't know who you are, but one thing's for sure--a beauty contest winner you ain't!
- Now don't get the feeling that I'm mad at you... It's just that I hate anybody to skip around town in a jazzier costume than mine!
- I can't let a common cold put me out of action! Otherwise, next time around, I'm liable to cry uncle if I develop some dandruff... or a case of chaffed lips! I might even become the only super-hero in town who won't fight because he's got acne!
- When you beat me last time, you were fighting a sick little Spider-Man! Even Doris Day could'a knocked me for a loop that time!
- You oughtta be ashamed of yourselves! not only do you try to hijack one of the classiest places in town, but you didn't even phone ahead for a reservation!
- Now I've seen it all! Those kookie mutants pick a fight with me because of some robot -- and then ride off into the sunset in a Rolls-Royce...while I stand here, soaked, with the beginnings of a summer cold! Some super-heroes have all the luck!
- Don't get your gums in an uproar, Mallet-Head! I was just reading your column to get my laugh for the day! Where do you get the nerve to call your rag a newspaper? Who's been writing your stuff these days--the Brothers Grimm?!! Anyone who pays a dime for that scandal sheet oughtta get eleven cents change!
- Ock broke through it for one reason... to flaunt his strength before me... out of pure cussedness! But now he'll learn how cussed Spider-Man can be! I'll show him what strength really is! He won't get another chance to return and jeopardize the life of Aunt May! No matter where he is, I'll find him! And this time, nothing will stop me from ridding the world forever of the menace of Dr. Octopus!
- Even though I can't remember... even though I don't really know you... every instinct within me wants to smash out... to strike... to destroy you!
- Didn't they ever tell you not to broadcast your plans? But that's the trouble with women... they just can't keep their mouths shut!
- No matter how small I am--no matter how hopeless everything seems--I mustn't give up! My size doesn't matter! Even my life doesn't matter! No one can win--every battle, but--no man should fall-- without a struggle!
- I always thought fat fellas were supposed to be jolly! They oughta toss you out of the union!
- The more I risk my life... the more deadly chances I take... the less good it seems to do! With all my strength ... with all my powers... why can't I ever make things right?
- Have no fear, Spidey's here!
- What we have here is a failure to communicate!
- I sure am popular in this town! If I ran for Mayor... even Mao T'se Tung would beat me!
- Listen to me hot stuff! It's a private fight between the Lizard and me!
- It's time I forgot about little ol' web-swinger for a while... and paid some attention to the private life of Peter Parker... who happens to be my favorite civilian!
- There she is! Man... standing next to those million dollar paintings, she still looks like the only masterpiece in the place!
- If this is a victory... I'd hate to be defeated.
- Okay, Mr. Clean... We've got some unfinished business, you and me!
- Which is worse...? Staying behind while other guys are doing the fighting...? Or fighting in a war that nobody wants... against an enemy you don't even hate?
- When... when will I learn to mind my own business? If I stopped a forest fire, they'd fine me for being in the woods without a license!
- People are always warning me! It's nice to know they care!
- I drank the potion-- even though it was untried-- it was untested-- because I wanted it to change me but-- not like this! NOT LIKE THIS!
- ... Even a loner like Spider-Man has heard tales of the Vision!
- I'll be burning the only evidence of Raleigh's real identity -- maybe because we need myths--and heroes-- and, yeah-- martyrs! Something twisted inside Raleigh made him what he was -- but whatever else he was, he's still a symbol! Isn't that all that really counts --
- You're the creep who's going to pay! I'm going to get you, Goblin! I'm going to destroy you slowly, and when you start begging for me to end it - I'm going to remind you of one thing - You KILLED the woman I love! And for that you're going to DIE!
- You're talking about my lady, creep! Someone I love--I mean loved--! Do you know what that means? Have you any idea what that means?? I loved her, Goblin! And you--! You--took--her--away! Filthy--worm-eating--scum!
- Hey Meatballs -- Yer sister plays the tuba!
- Sorry MJ... Guess my mind was on other things. Just had a talk with someone... and it made me suddenly realize... hey, I'm not really alone, after all.
- I suppose I should do something to help him, but I doubt if anything could survive that fall.
- I can't get over that feeling of menace... as though something pretty bad was about to happen -- to none other than your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man!
- Save it for the papers, Jonah. Save it for tomorrow.
- It's too late to go back to work with the Torch...and it's too early to go home. Guess all that's left is some web-slinging. Maybe that will cheer me up. Seems like everytime I finish a fight, I'm all alone again--which makes me think of Gwendy--and brother...that makes me want to die!
- He -- he dropped me! I never realized -- never thought --! I'm too high up to snag a building with my web -- there's no way for me to catch myself! Looks like this time -- I've had it!
- He-he dropped me! I never realized--never thought--! I'm too high to snag a building with my web--there's no way for me to catch myself! Looks like this time--I've had it!
- Oh no! No! It can't be happening! It can't be--! Doc Ock is marrying Aunt May!
- Head's up, Stegron-- Spidey's coming through!
- My head... spinning again. That cold is really wrecking me... can hardly stand... UNNNNNH! It's not the cold... it can't be. My strength's emptying out -- feel all drained, on fire! Radiation poisoning -- I was exposed too -- the radiation must be hitting my own radioactive blood -- eating at me -- dissolving my energy -- destroying me! Can't move -- can hardly think! Is this -- is this it? IS THIS THE END OF SPIDER-MAN?
- RAXTON, NO! The water's too cold -- your body will --
- Forget it, Robbie. It's not important. I've got enough to be happy about. 'Cause you see, I'm beginning to realize -- next to some people's problems -- my life is charmed -- a regular picnic if you know what I mean.
- Holy Cow! It's really him -- The Green Goblin lives again!
- Are you Heckle or Jeckle?
- Whatever I can give, he's got. You see, officer... he's my friend.
- It's the Jackal! And from the way he's talking -- MY PROBLEMS HAVE JUST BEGUN!
- Make that "chump", not champ, Max. You were Jameson's chump ten years ago -- now you've been the Jackal's. But don't worry -- someday, I'll get the Jackal too. And that, my fat friend -- is a promise from Spider-Man!
- Then -- it's finally happened! I'm cracking up -- Peter Parker is -- insane!
- No! It can't be! Gwen is dead! That can't be her!
- Gwen? You're -- ALIVE -- ?
- Sometimes I wonder: Am I Spider-Man because I want to help people -- or because I want to hurt them? These days I seem to do more hurting than helping.
- Okay, hero-man... let's see you get out of this!
- ... They don't call me Spider-Man for nothing!
- PROFESSOR WARREN! THE JACKAL IS -- PROFESSOR WARREN!
- Von Shtupf, I take it back. You're not sick. You're just crazy.
- Ta-Taa! No applause folks -- Just throw money!
- I-I Don't know who I am...! Spider-Man... or some laboratory-bred duplicate the professor created to battle him!
- I'm nothing like the Torch! I'm prettier!
- I mean I've heard of people wanting their name up in lights and all--
--But THIS is downright RIDICULOUS!
- Webhead, I've got the feeling this just isn't gonna be your night!
- So, as someone once said, --- Up --- Up --- and AWAY!
- Great! We're caught in the middle of a super-villain sandwich...
- Oh mercy me, Mister Bad Man! Is that a thweat?
- Bein' a Super-Hero's no bed of roses...
- Agony, Mrs. Pym? I believe I know all about it.
- Welcome to the hero business, Fly -- and good luck!
- Hi-ya Cappy. How's it hangin'?
- Right now, I'd trade the whole Spider-Man bit for a rocking chair and a subscription to Reader's Digest.
- I need a place to change! A phone booth--? Nah! Even I'm not that corny!
- New to New York, Moonstone? I can`t say I`ve ever heard of you! But then, I don`t get much time to read the "Wanted" ads...
- C'mon! You're not really gonna try to stop me by waving a cape! This isn't a bullfight -- and you can't sidestep a guy with spider-speed!
- Doc, one time I was in a jam, and a total stranger gave me his last five bucks. I figure that is particular five spot's been handed from stranger to stranger since money was invented. Each guy that gets it, when he's down and out, is obligated to pass it on to somebody else once he's on his feet again. So, I'm just passing it on, Doc.
- Y'know, Vermin -- there's something in your eyes, in your voice -- something that reminds me of everything rotten, vile and stinking inside us -- all the inner monsters men hide from themselves!
- You've shown that now you're willing to sacrifice anyone --anything-- to save yourself! And I don't owe you anything anymore!
- "Like I always say, 'With great power comes great indebtedness.'"
- I can't believe all that's happened in the last twenty-four hours! Mary Jane announced that she's always known that I'm Spider-Man! I have an argument with Black Cat, and a real doozie of a nightmare! Not only do I learn that my costume's alive, but I'm also the butt of one of the Human Torch's sick pranks!
- Well I'll be an eight-ball's uncle! That glob just -- just spread out and became a costume -- and dissolved away the tatters of my old one in the process! Not bad! Different -- but not bad!
- The amulet! His power resides in the amulet around his neck -- get it off him and he's beaten!
- Don't you see? I couldn't stand being a puppet. I'd rather die! And what good would I be to you then?!
- He...He used to be the Herald of Galactus! Galactus for Pete's sake! He could have killed me!
- Someday, you'll make a mistake. And I'll be waiting!
- Hey, everybody! LOOK! I'm SPIDER-MAN! Your friendly neighbor, Peter Parker, is SPIDER-MAN! Ya know, Parker...if everyone else in the building wasn't out having a good time, you might be getting yourself in real trouble right now!
- I... I can't stay out of this...! It goes against every instinct I've lived by since Uncle Ben's death!
- Good. Nothing's damaged... except my pride. Char-broiled by a kid. Maybe I'll prove how tough I am by slaughtering a troop of campfire girls.
- Blast it Mary Jane, this can't wait! All I need is a yes or no: will you marry me?
- But I can't let my fear stop me. God, please don't let it stop me.
- TWO WEEKS!! In the ground! In the grave! Dead! TWO WEEKS!!
- I really should re-design my web-shooters so this won't happen again! Either that--or sew a change pocket into my costume so I can carry bus fare! No, with a costume this tight--people might think I had cellulite!
- Just drop me off at the World Trade Center.
- What the heck is this, a Rambo convention?
- Okay, the unexpected I can deal with... as long as I'm expecting it, that is...
- Before I go -- a little helpful hint -- breathe through your nose. 'Cause those webs can taste pretty hideous! Heh-heh.
- I'm through being Spider-Man, Doc! I want you to use your machine to remove my powers! Completely! Forever!
- The Doc's transformation -- I've never seen his blood-lust so consuming.
- Talk to me, lady. Tell me -- all your plans. Isn't that what you -- bad guys live for?
- Why puny men try to hurt spider? Men Stupid! Spider can't be hurt! Spider strong!
- Playing super hero isn't a game. It's fate. We choose to do good. Choose to do bad. We had a choice.
- The next few days are going to be rough. I've still got a concussion to heal! And Mary Jane's going to be upset for quite a while! It'll take time, and talk, and affection. But I know we can work it out. After all -- I'm getting pretty good at reconciling things!
- Loki created that monster! And if destruction is what Loki wanted -- destruction is what we're gonna get!
- I see it -- but there's no way we can get to it in time to stop it!
- We're with you, Thrasher. Er... it's okay if I call you Thrasher isn't it -- even though we just met? I'm generally on a first name basis with anybody who attacks me from behind.
- To use your tired cliché-- is that the best you can do?!!
- That guard! Crane's about to roll over his fingers! But I don't have time to save him and Cardiac! What'll I Do?!!
- ... I have to set Venom loose!
- This thing is strong. I need some time to figure out what it is and how to handle it!
- But it's not the same thing! All these years--I've done my best to make up for that! I've wore this suit--gone out there and put my life on the line again and again! But no matter how hard I try-- --people-- --die!
- But maybe the only real way to honor the dead is by making the most of your life, whether it lasts a few fleeting years... ...or a swiftly-elapsed century. I'll give it a shot, Uncle Ben. For you.
- Sorry, M.J. and thanks. It's just that, it was bad enough when I found out years ago that my parents were government couriers, that they died on a spy mission against the Red Skull! But when they showed up yesterday alive, saying they'd been in Russian prison camps for the last 20 years -- ! Well, I guess I'm more messed up than I thought. I want to love these people, but how can I even believe them? If only I could find the Skull, have him confirm or deny their story...
- Speedball notwithstanding, there's hope for the next generation yet.
- I've seen you kill people. Okay, maybe they weren't the nicest people -- but your career is over!
- Hey, if you're going to go against the BIG BOYS, you're going to have to have a tad more staying power.
- If anything, the Punisher and I are more committed than ever to our opposing philosophies......and a final confrontation is inevitable.
- Once Carnage and his band of animals have to face the cutting edge of technology -- they're as good as finished!
- Being true to what I am is the most important thing! I realize it now! And if I ignore it -- everything else in my life, including my relationship with Mary Jane, will be nothing but a hollow sham! M.J. was wrong! This is worth the risk!
- Ahhh, what a delightful aroma! Chanel No. 5 and Oregano!
- I thought hassles about guys with long hair went out with the 60's!
- "Whatever problems I have... they're overshadowed by the good things I've got. Mary Jane, Aunt May, a passel of friends... And a bunch of clobbered super-villains at my feet. It could be a lot worse
- Blond guy? Hammer?! Oh, maaa-aan!
- All I'd have to do is stop holding back. With my spider-strength, it would be as simple as snapping a twig... Who am I kidding? I'm a hero.
- I can't deal with Parker's life. Parker's world as it is today. But here... I can at least remember his yesterdays. As hard as it was for me, growing up without parents-- there were a lot of wonderful times in this house with Aunt May and Uncle Ben. I was loved here. Protected.
- That hurt. A lot. But whatever doesn't kill me... still hurts. A lot.
- Hey, Sandy, is that your face or are you wearing a beach?
- Sweet dream, JJJ. You've given me some of the worst years of my life. I'm gonna miss you...
- That's what I like about you, Torch -- you're so gracious!
- Alligators in the sewers, Lizzie? Isn't that a little...cliché?
- Reilly and I are supposedly the same person-- --but he has a quicker temper than me! He's headstrong, reacts without thinking sometimes! Must have been all those years on the road!
- What... what happened? He knew... ...and I knew... ...and he couldn't... ...he just couldn't stand the thought of... ...the thought of... No. I can't tell you, Ben. That's just one question that's going to have to go unanswered.
- You may be gorgeous and smart and sophisticated and sneaky-- --but this "little boy" can still keep you tangled up here long enough-- --for someone to hear the fuss and call the cops-- --and then you're caught just as surely as if I was some big, brawny, respectable hunk!
- I'm not kidding, Bluebird! This isn't a game -- it's deadly serious!
- That's okay, too, Betty. Take your time. After all-- --what's a relationship without a little mystery?
- Yeah, Torch, you're right. Everything you said is true. It's just... it's just going to take me a long time to believe it, that's all...
- Onslaught. He meant to enslave us. He destroyed our city... murdered our heroes... ...he took away so much... I...
- You know, I wonder if that was the Scorcher's problem -- he was so ready to see the bad in life, he couldn't believe in anything good. So he acted like somebody's lies about him were true -- and if you do that, it doesn't much matter whether they were lies or not-- --'cause they're sure true now.
- Despite the fork in the road five years ago, we are the same guy. Closer that brothers-- closer than two people could be. When I found out that I was the clone and not you-- okay... yeah, I bugged out... but after that-- it was you! It was your strength-- your acceptance of it when you thought you were the clone that carried me through! You were my strength, and. well... you've come to mean a lot to me. I love you, man.
- You know -- I think there's another reason they call you the Terrier, Gord! It's because you're nothing more than a dog to them-- --an animal, to be sicced on thier enemies-- --and if you screw up, they'll just cut you loose, because you don't know anything that can harm them!
- I-it's... It's... ...Mary Jane, the baby... they're... ...they're in trouble!!
- Here I am, out to dinner with one of the most glamorous gals in the world, and what's she doing? Talking about other guys. Face it, Parker, it's the story of your--
- Y'know-- --it's okay to call for backup!
- Say, Headsy -- have you ever stopped to think that maybe I can dodge forever? That maybe the reason nobody's killed me yet is that it's not as easy as you think-- --and that maybe you're just not good enough?!
- "Over?" I doubt it, Glory. Calypso's on the prowl again -- but I still have no clue what her agenda is. And that scares me... ...to death.
- Well, responsibility's something I know a little bit about... ...so let's see if this friendly neighborhood wall-crawler can't get the scoop on this Prowler impostor!
- ...I... ...yeah... ...yeah, I do... He... ...his name was Ben... ...he was my brother... ...and I miss him, David... ...but I go on. We have to go on...
- Spider-Man is back-- and I'm here to stay!
- Comic books! But I've never seen titles like these on the local newsstand -- Marvel Mystery, All Winners, Young Allies, Captain America and the Sub-Mariner!
- Just thinking that it's really strange sometimes, the way things work out..!
- Actually -- it's -- Spider-Man. But why be so formal..? I'll call you Akasha and you can call me --
- Hoo! Well, I guess we can all agree that she's now offically 'spooked...' which means that I don't have to worry about being so sneaky... now we can do things... Spidey style!
- Ah, well -- assuming I do find a way to solve my financial problems, then there's one thing I know about college. If today was any indication-- --it's sure not gonna be dull!
- So we won't get out alive, huh? Where do you get your dialogue, bird-brain? From DC comics?
- Sandman......you're absolutely right. I did treat you like an idiot. I'm sorry.
- It's not my Spider-Sense. It's something else... ...but what?! All I do know is that if I don't thwip up there and check it out now... ...I'm gonna be wonderin' what it was for a loooong time!
- --'sheesh! Dig the decor! Looks like I made it in time for Neil Diamond!
- Time for the main event, Venom! Time to get body-slammed in the face......by your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man!
- Y'know, Doc-- --there are some things even a master of the mystic arts isn't meant to know..! But thanks for that... ...thanks a lot.
- Poor Eddie Brock......hopefully, now, he can find some peace with himself! And hopefully, the rest of us have seen the last of Venom... ...but somehow I doubt that!
- N-nice save, Subby! I give it a ten for dramatic value-- --but I'm subtracting points for your lousy sense of timing!
- And the funny thing is, Aunt Anna -- the entire time I was looking for it, it was right under my nose! Merry Christmas, everyone!
- Ah... Let's just say that I don't think you'll have to worry about Spider-Man from now on!
- There you are, you handsome devil! Now put the nice motorcycle down; you could poke your eye out with that thing!
- Whaddaya mean?! MJ, Norman Osborn wants to hire the Hornet... Me!... To throw down with Spider-Man... also me!... Because he despises Peter Parker... ...who, for those of you who came in late, is, once again... me! This is like... the best!
- The Super Hero Union only requires me to deliver one last-minute rescue per customer!
- Man, what a dope I've been...! These last few days all I've worried about is whether Hope learned my secret or not... ...worrying about my problems, getting suspicious, convincing myself that she knew... ...seeing an accusatory look in her eyes whenever we were together...
- ...now all I have to do is hope that Hope doesn't put two-and-two together and suspect that the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man who helped her-- --is also her friendly neighbor from next door, Peter Parker! Nah! Now I'm just gettin' paranoid...!
- I have to go make the world safe for truth and justice and like that. Hope I didn't infringe on any copyrights with that line!
- And I wish I could tell you that time heals. Unfortunately, I can't... ...but you do learn how to live with the pain.
- If the Technomancers have it, then that's bad news to begin with -- But if Osborn wants it, then that's enough to convince me that he just shouldn't have it!
- Who the --? What the --? How the --? Who is he? His moves... they're somewhat like mine, but... more like he's flying than leaping.
- ...this new Spider-Man, whoever it is, seems to have things pretty much under control.
- Omigosh! It's a girl! Just a kid! What was she--
- Getting caught in a battle between two god-like beings is not how I planned on spending my day, but... ...I guess it never is!
- Honestly...not all it's cracked up to be. I mean...I'm glad MJ is having so much fun and all, and the money's great...I think...but I just didn't expect her to be out of town so much. I see her between flights and...well, it's not what I expected from our marriage.
- It's funny how life turns out sometimes... Isn't it, target-top?
- I'm not sure, Aunt May, but... it's... a weird feeling... I don't know how to describe it... Like the world is a bit off center.
- Who is this?! Brock? Is that you, Venom? Threatening me again?
- That will never happen. You know I can and will fight you. Destroy you if I have to. With fire... with sound... whatever it takes, but you will never be part of my life again!
- A grown man who puts on spandex and swings from rooftops in order to fight crime! Maybe I'm as insane as they are. But I guess it could always be worse. I'm lucky to have survived. Lucky to not be insane. Still, I can't help but think... ...how much luckier I'd be if I'd never become Spider-Man!
- Thanks for the god lesson. I'll be leaving now! Good luck subjugating the will of all humanity.
- --Oh, come on! Today! Everything has to happen today?!
- Take a number, pal! You know how many times I've heard that? How many times I've had enemies try to kill me...or someone around me? You have any idea how tired I get of hearing it? Of having to deal with it?
- You know that good old mindless super-hero versus world dominating villain kind of thing. Lots of punches, puns, blasts and web... ...bing?!
- The way he's looking at me. He's got to know. And he's holding it against me... Not buying any of the photos... ...what am I going to do now?
- -- nah! Been there... done that! Being Spider-Man is kinda cool!
- Fine! Everything that can go wrong does go wrong... ...fine! Children in trouble. drug busts...the Sandman! Fine! Fine! Fine! I'll handle it all! I'll save the day! I'll beat the bad guy! And I will get to my blasted job interview! Because... ...I'm going to have a life!
- Wonderful! What am I going to do? What more can happen to me? Of course.
- My back-pack?! Where --? My costume and web shooters! They're... ...gone!
- You'd think I could come up with some way to get my life in order so that I'm not always just scraping by. Why can't things ever work out for me the way they do for everyone else?
- Hehh... I guess it's easy to laugh in the face of danger when you don't take anything too seriously.
- So, uh... This friend of mine, he's a mime, an' they just send him to jail... ...it was a wheat field outside of buffalo with a big sign saying, "Pretend you are in prison!"
- The memory of the man. I'm not hiding from anything. Not this time. I'll take care of her.
- Remember me... Spider-Man... misunderstood hero. That's Hero... capital of H... also one of the good guys! And I do not kill people! Ever!
- Typeface, huh? So, what does the "R" stand for? "Raving"?
- Okay, Arthur, big ugly monster guys and saving the world are my bailiwick. Did I fit bailiwick into a conversation? Cool!
- C'mon, Typeface... Uhh... You really want murder and arson on your rap sheet? You don't strike me as the type.
- Lady, you can call me whatever you want. Just don't hit me with that laser blade again, okay?
- I've been thinking of changing my name to something a little more millennial. Yeah... That's it... Millennial Man. He fights with the power of a million years.
- Oh, sure... I can just picture it now: "Welcome to respectability, spidey. You owe us five squillion dollars in super hero back-taxes."
- Tell you what: we're going to give this poor kitty a break. His life's been screwed with more than enough. We're going to let him live a little... hang out with his cat friends... get a girlfriend... live in peace. ...hopefully some place far, far away. Shoo! Go on... get! Make some friends... ...and let me get back to mine!
- Y-You killed him! You finally did it... You killed my brother!
- Yeah, I do. Funny thing is, I feel like she's still here, you know? I realize it's just because I want her to be. All my friends keep telling me it's time to let go. But I don't want to.
- I already met that someone, Jill. And she was taken away from me.
- I couldn't do it, Mendel. I mean, I beat myself up over this like you wouldn't believe. I must've thought about it a thousand different ways... ...but it's just not me.
- I... I knew... I knew. I knew you were alive! Who did this? Why?
- Oh, god... ->snff<- I thought... I thought you were gone, Mary Jane. Are you real?
- "Fusion," eh? You look more like a "Larry" to me.
- Who am I? My name's Peter Parker. I'm the new science teacher.
- Uhh...I know you better than you think, pal. You fit the mold perfectly: all your anger's driven by a series of convenient excuses --
- ...that there's a fine line between hero and psycho, I guess.
- I may be quick -- I mean, you're looking at the dude who left Billy Pinder in the dust during a second grade sack race!
- Hello, God... This is Peter Parker. Can I ask a favor? I know I've been your personal cat toy for the last few years...but can we not do that to me again for a while? Not real long, I know the odds on that are about zero...but just for a little while. Say...fifty or sixty years? I mean, that's not long in your terms, right? Just kidding, God... Just kidding. But I'll bet you knew that, didn't you?
- Only madmen could contain the thought, execute the act, fly the planes. The sane world will always be vulnerable to madmen, because we cannot go where they go to conceive of such things. We could not see it coming. We could not be here before it happened. We could not stop it. But we are here now. You cannot see us for the dust, but we are here. You cannot hear us for the cries, but we are here.
- If there's any way I can help, just... let me know. No strings. Honest and true. Deal?
- That's what I love about you, birdbrain: you think you're really nifty-- --but you're really just the bottom of the cage!
- And how she liked me -- they all liked me -- even though they knew I was Spider-Man. And about how that felt, knowing I belonged somehow. And how I didn't want to admit that I liked it. A lot.
- Ooh. I love it when you talk fancy. Hey, I got one: "Cease and desist, you certifiable cephalopod!" Maybe you should've called yourself Doc Lobster.
- Sorry, kid. But the good guy can't always save the world. Sometimes he just does what he can... ...eat his broccoli -- ...and hopes everything works out.
- Wait... "Crappy super-villain": Isn't that an oxymoron?
- You're right: I can't. Not even to a stain on humanity like you.
- Y'know its funny. I'd almost forgotten... how much I don't miss high school.
- Burn Crisqó's old sheets. The celebrity beach house just got a new guest.
- Heh. Well, I guess in the end, life's a beach!
- Your name was Gwen Stacy. Mine is Peter Parker. This is the story of how we fell in love. Or, more appropriately, how we almost didn't fall in love.
- But I got plans to meet a special lady at the airport tonight, and nobody's getting in my way. Especially-- --not-- you!
- Whatsamatta, Elmer? No more bu-wetts? Duck season! Wabbit season! Th-th-that's all, folks! "Oh, 'dem dukes, 'dem dukes!"
- No, wait... I can see what you're trying to do. But I'm not biting, Norm. You're not worth it.
- And I'm sure they're going to ask what kind of idiot talks about one beautiful girl to another beautiful girl...? And, uh, the answer is... this kind of idiot. Me. Peter Parker.
- I won't have to kill you in return. I won't even have to send you in jail. Just being you -- that's life without parole.
- Hey, where's your silly suit,Scorpia? "Silly suit Scorpia." Try saying that five times, fast.
- I don't need any promises, MJ. I'll wait for you as long as you need. Or until the stars turn cold and fall from the sky. Whichever comes first.
- And all I can think is, there's no way she could've gotten that far ahead. It's not physically possible. Not unless she's a mutant.
- A million question and no one to answer them... very tantric.
- Because you have to know-- --that it's not true. And I'm going to take care of it. One way or another. But it's not true, MJ. I swear it. I swear it. I--
- Short answer, Shocker: you're selfish, I'm not. Or at least I try not to be. Now grow up. My organs feel numb and I'm going home. That's what us heroes get to do.
- This is obnoxious. Even for me.
- Could I have another one of those, if you've got a spare, because that was good, the whole lips thing, and the face touching, because I could do that all night until I go on patrol and --
- Do you realize how many crimes I could have stopped while I was jerking around, putting on a show for you guys?! Putting on a show for money!
- Anybody ever tell you that you fight like a girl? I'm just asking in case there's anything you want to tell the group.
- Maybe this whole beach is a Sandman factory, churning out idealized versions of yourself. Maybe--
- Everybody in our odd little community would deny it, but we all watch each other when we cross paths, looking for weaknesses, in case that day ever comes. In case they ever have to stop me...or I ever have to stop them. But we never talk about it. Ever.
- The way he's looking at me. He's got to know. And he's holding it against me... Not buying any of the photos... ...what am I going to do now?
- I'm not perfect, Flash. I've... done things. I've been selfish. People have died because of me. But I accept that, and I own it. And maybe in all this mess I'm able to stay strong... Because I know I'm weak.
- I don't know how to make it make sense to you. I'm not even sure it makes sense to me. In the end, it all comes down to one, simple truth...I'm Spider-Man.
- Tell somebody you love them, or hit them, and you can't foresee all the possible consequences. You do "A" because it's a good thing. But "A" has consequence "B" which is a bad thing for somebody else. Sometimes I focus so much on what I'm doing right now to fix something, that I forget even bad guys have families.
- ...hhh...I never sinned against you, Eddie. It's all about you and the suit, dude-- you two are like an old married couple.
- I don't think it's Eddie Brock at all. I think it's the suit. It's looking for a new host.
- -- and so I said, "That can't possibly be the going price for all a main such are pressed market" and the guy was all smug to us and stuff which is when my partner (and I use the term loosely) here got involved in the negotiation process......and before you know it, we're looking at one reasonably priced llama......and did you know that llamas could swim? We didn't think they counld, either, or maybe it was this particular llama had such a will to live but--
- What is it? Am I talking too much about the "Other Me", or maybe I didn't ask you how your day went, and I know how I can get caught up on one topic and talk for a long time without stopping in these really long run-on sentences and--
- Yooooowchhhh!!! Hey. I think you fixed it. My shoulder. It feels bet--
- Your word as a career criminal? That supposed to make me special?
- I can't help wondering, what have I done? Did I just solve a problem, or create one? Did I just save Eddie Brock's life? Or did I just send him to hell?
- And if you talk to any newspaper reporters, remind them that I've got a hyphen in my name! They always forget the hyphen!
- This isn't over, Fisk, not by a long shot.
- Pop the dice in the plastic bubble! It pops you in and out of trouble! Um...something, something, something... I can't remember the rest of the lyrics...
- Sorry I won't be able to oblige. I've been working on a new dance step. Oops. Now I've gone and put my foot in it.
- Love is never silent, Mr. Davis-- and it never dies. It lives in us, in our hearts... ...forever.
- Well, technically, Octopi have arms... ...spiders have legs. And toned, shapely ones at that.
- Whoa. Have you been lifting weights, tubbo? Hey, fat bottom-- --one good 'feet' deserves another.
- Oh, god... ->snff<- I thought... I thought you were gone, Mary Jane. Are you real?
- Your problem is, you're a dinosaur. Say it with me now: "Look everyone! I'm extinct!"
- Jeez, you are the most anal-retentive super-villain of all time.
- Hey...by "gets any worse" I mean, like, hitting people an' stuff. Especially old friends who are trying to do you a favor.
- Out there, if I ever gave up, even for a second, it would all be over. But it's hard. I get tired. I get worn. Do you know what keeps me going? I know that I have to get home to you. I have to walk through that door.
- And that's all she wrote!
- Pardon me for interrupting, but do you people always run a background check on your new teachers?
- Yeah, listen. I know you must have idiots showing up and doing this all the time, but it really is me, Jarvis. Could you hit the buzzer and let me in? I'm getting soaked out here.
- Dude, you need to pick on someone your own size, species and/or gender. Say, what gender are you, anyway?
- We had a deal, Eddie... And you broke it... So what are we gonna do now?
- There are some things in my life that you just don't touch if you want to walk away with your spine intact.
- I'm sorry, Aunt May. Sorry for this stupid hobby that keeps killing people I love. Now you're gonna die just like Uncle Ben and just like Uncle Ben......it's Peter Parker's fault.
- Listen to Bushnick's editorial! "It's high time that the publisher of the Daily Bugle learns this valuable lesson...That the fourth estate wields great work, and with it, there must also come great responsibility." Couldn't have said it better myself.
- Uhh...jeez... I feel like I'm in high school again. Are you flirting with me?
- Actually, Eddie... I know three things. I'm faster than you... I'm definitely--smarter than you... And I've always been... Stronger than you.
- I still can't believe you never told me we were having money problems. I mean what did you think I was going to do? Push you off a building?
- I'm three days away from you finding me running around Times Square in nothing but my web-shooters and my mask whooping it up about power and responsibility.
- I guess maybe there's a reason for everything in our lives. Even our mistakes.
- What the Bleep is WRONG with you? I almost had Doctor Doom until I tripped over you and this stupid [Bleep] camera! Now stop [Bleep] following me! If I see you again, I'll [Bleep] you [Bleep] camera up your [Bleep][Bleeeep]!
- Seriously, I'm not the guy I was back in high school, you morons. First person lays a finger on me leaves the gym on a freakin' stretcher!
- Well, uh... ...I've made a couple of changes.
- John Jameson. Spider-Man's your son, Jonah. I really am truly sorry.
- Ahem. Like I was saying, I got two pairs. Two nines... ...an' two more nines. That makes four. Read 'em an' weep, fatso.
- Keep on trudging ahead. And if you should happen to fall at some point along the way, Pete-- Get up. Dust yourself off. Don't look back... And try even harder the next go 'round.
- Why is it that every time I've ever tried to get my life together--it almost always ends up with me being late for school?
- Yeah...that's me: I'm the cleaning lady. Always got some kind of solution. But it never really gets out the stain.
- What am I doing? I've never lied to MJ before. Come on. Parker, that's another lie. You've lied plenty. But that was a different time. A different time.
- Is it just me, or do you have a fascination with death? And should I be worried about this?
- Henh heh heh-- Hack-ack Oh! Think I just shot some webs outta my nose!
- Geez, let a guy plummet to his almost-death one time and you never hear the end of it.
- I mean "Gun-Toting-Maniac-With-A-Skull-On-His-Chest" crazy. I mean, REALLY. You and the Punisher would really get along. Well, probably not...
- Hey, here's a question for you: if frogs' legs taste like chicken, why not just eat chicken and leave the frogs out of it?
- Why, if it ain't my pal, the human gasbag!
- Everybody in our odd little community would deny it, but we all watch each other when we cross paths, looking for weaknesses, in case that day ever comes. In case they ever have to stop me...or I ever have to stop them. But we never talk about it. Ever.
- Just try not to blow up the whole neighborhood, okay? My favorite Indian take-out is around here somewhere. What? You don't like tandoori?
- If I'm right...and I think I am..all those hits were just a diversion from their real agenda: to smuggle something very dangerous into the country.
- And I'm Spider-Man. Weird things happen to me all the time.
- I'm sorry... ...but this whole adventure was ridiculous!
- Just remember: as my Uncle Ben once said-- --with great power there must also come great responsibility.
- Logan, I swear to God...I think I'm going to kill them. Magneto. His stupid daughter. I'm gonna kill them with my bare hands. I'm not -- I'm not going to be able to stop myself.
- Do you know how many rank amateur super-villains I've beat the stuffing out of today? You guys are stupider than the real Absorbing Man!
- Yeah, after all those years on my own, I could get used to this Avengers thing. I could definitely get used to this.
- This slasherday thing's getting everyone nervous. I want Razorfist put away fast. Maybe then I'll believe you can teach your symbiote some manners.
- Well -- It was nice knowing all of you.
- Empire State University. Where Spider-Man was born. And, now, where he may die. Oh, the irony.
- Paul...you may not have a wife...but I do. And she hates it when I'm late on dinner-and-a-movie-night.
- MJ... May... I'll never leave you again. Never. Never. Never.
- That's what I love about this city. Every time I need to hit someone really, really hard, some jerk steps up and volunteers.
- But now I think... maybe there's even more to the powers I got that day, and maybe I can use them to help people more than I ever imagined. Tonight, if I hadn't been open to those powers, I might never have reached that girl in time.
- ...I don't know. It just keeps going off. Like a constant ringing beneath my neocortex, you know?
- It would be simpler, and more legal, if guys like me registered. If we were regulated, like the AMA or any of those other initial-groups. The problem is that after registration always comes regulation.
- ...someone wanna tell me where the naked guy came from?
- How did--? This... You... What are you? A ghost?
- Somewhere, there's a one-liner about me "crashing this little party."
- My name is Peter Parker, and I've been Spider-Man since I was fifteen years old. Any questions?
- What have you done now!? What kind of crazy trick is this? And... what? They don't have carburetors in the future, with all the smoke that thing's giving off?
- Well, there's the whole thousands of mutant-controlled energy fields inside a mystery man in a place where millions of mutants died? Sounds bad.
- Richards was wrong; you're not a symptom, you're-- --you're insane!! You're-- nothing!!! A cold-blooded nothing that shouldn't even be breathing. Reality check, Stregon. It's not mammals or reptiles that rule the world--It's spiders!!!
- Don't worry. I've been in tons of situations like this. Just trust me. You do trust me, right? Guys, it's okay to talk if I ask you a-- aw, crap. Guys? Guys?
- Because everyone's picking sides, everyone's being recruited, but... that's not your style, I know. You're your own woman.
- If the cost of silence is the soul of the country...If the cost of tacit support is that we lose the very things that make this nation the greatest in human history, then the price is too high.
- Huh. Maybe I should've dressed up like a bat instead of a spider. Strike fear into my enemies... Nah. Dumb idea.
- I've made you and MJ targets. Taken away what little semblance of a normal life we had. God, if the Chameleon had hurt you or... ...or worse...
- Whether a law is right or wrong, moral or immoral, is an idea, a personal philosophy... but it always seems that fights over ideas skip over the barrier into the real world and become battles of real violence.
- Peter Parker, masquerading as your friendly neighborhood gym teacher. But that Arrow woman was right. I can't just abandon the kids. Not until I'm sure that I've thrown enough of a scare into the underworld...
- Jeez. Mooney. Rhymes with loony.
- And maybe you want to think about what you would call weakness-- and others, compassion-- isn't always such a bad thing.
- So, White Tiger -- are you one of Hector's cousins or nieces? Because you have his NON-sense of humor.
- I will find them. And when I do--I'm going to kill them.
- And now with all that's happened... The police, the army, everybody's after me... What was the point? What was--? Dammit. >sigh<
- We're the NEW New Avengers.
- And the rest of you -- be careful, okay? The world's not... it's not so fun anymore, you know? I don't want to go to any more of these.
- Just one thing, Mr. Fisk. You can die.
- Look, Marko... I dunno if I'm going to be that much help to you anyway. I'm not a detective. All I know is this: There have been two Uncle Bens in my life. One showed up out of nowhere some months back, and then vanished.
- Thank God. I wasn't sure Mr. Fantastic would help me since I'm not part of his so-called "Initiative"...
- End of the road, Fisk. You. Me. RIGHT NOW.
- You're from the future. His future. It was the only way you could know that the other Spider-Man was from 2211. And since there's been a future Spider-Man... and future Hobgoblin... Why not a future Chameleon?
- --the damage had already been done, Felicia, and... ...and Jordan knows how close he came. And now... ...now, he has to live with that part of himself, for the rest of his life.
- Hey, that look is trade-marked! Ya gotta pay ten bucks if you're gonna do that!
- Because Flash Thompson is my friend! And if you think you're going to get away with him, you're-- --you're-- --absolutely right, apparently.
- I've done something far worse than kill you, Fisk. I've beaten you.
- If you ever laugh, let me know so I can hide underground.
- Like hell. I'm getting showered, changed......and then Jonah Jameson and I are going to have a long overdue...chat.
- Henh heh heh-- Hack-ack Oh! Think I just shot some webs outta my nose!
- You...You snuck up on me and my spider-sense didn't go off...Who are you?
- She took a bullet intended for me, Stephen. If I'd moved just a second faster, if I'd seen -- I can't let her die like this, not when it's my fault. I can't live with that. I can't, I --- God...God...God...For God's sake, Stephen...help me...please help me.
- And we shall be called... the Fellowship of the Ring.
- You would not believe the day I'm having.
- Oh, fought some crime, saved the world with a war-maiden in chain mail bikini, had my blood sacrificed to an ego-maniac with a skin condition... you know, the usual.
- Family, eh? Well, face it, tiger, you just hit the jackpot!
- So, what's your story, sweet cheeks? Is there an introductory super-villain promotion going on? Because you're my third newbie this month!
- Still, shooting the mutant with a healing factor probably wasn't the best use of your arrows. You're just going to make him...mad.
- H-Have t-to admit, though...I'm s-starting to wish I'd b-been bitten by a radioactive p-polar bear.
- You'll never make the Yankees with a swing like that! Or even the Mets! Of course I don't think they have a uniform in your size.
- Hello? Creepy waif girl? Sorry about the "paper doll" crack. That seemed to touch a nerve.
- Oh my God. Cap's back.
- Thanks for the heads up "mystery girl". In fact, thanks for all of 'em. We made a pretty good team.
- Whoa! I haven't seen this many villains, thugs, and lowlifes in one place since I watched C-Span's coverage of congress yesterday!
- You can't arrest me. I'm the good guy
- Devil Man, Devil Man, Dares whatever a devil can. Is he brave? Listen here. Just call 'im the Man sans Fear. Hey there! There goes the Devil Man!
- Life sucks sometimes... but it's always worth living.
- Well, I never thought I'd say this...Spider-Man's gonna save me!
- I'd take fifth home. I've been patrolling it pretty hard the last couple of nights.
- You say you don't want the responsibility? Guess what? People like us...we don't get a choice.
- But without a Tommy Gun and a "dirty rat"--you're not my Hammerhead.
- You did not tell a Skrull you locked in the freezer to "chill out."
- If Johnny Storm doesn't jump out right now and tell me I've been super-punked, someone's getting hit in the gonads.
- Kill him? Wait, you mean this isn't the Love Boat?! Dang, I was really hoping you and Charo could help me rekindle my marriage...I really got to update my references.
- Is that Hoary Hosts with an "H" or with a "W"?
- Stand back and, above all, ignore my girlish scream of anguish -- because this is gonna hurt.
- I know who I am. Who are you? Gray Guy? Half-Tone, the Faceless Wonder?
- My aunt lives around here, by the way. Do you know what the sound of gunshots does to her property value?
- Are you kidding? I just spent two weeks getting shot, buried alive and crawling through sewers. You bet your adamantium tuchus I feel like it.
- Too slow, Golden Boy. Me on the other hand? I float like a butterfly, sting like a bee...well, more like float like a spider, sting like a spider. Which is odd, because spiders neither float nor sting.
- Ya hear that, Chameleon? The President-elect here just appointed me... Secretary of Shuttin' You Up!
- I'm not a serial killer! I like...nay love cereal! Fruit Loops is my favorite! Then again, Lucky Charms isn't so bad, either. Believe me, I'm a firm believer that every red-blooded American kid should start his day with a half-pound of sugar, magic marshmallows, and a spastic leprechaun who wants to steal your breakfast.
- It's hard to face your fears. But sometimes, you must. Then... and only then... ...you can be at peace with them.
- Oh, no. No no no. That's -- that's Venom. That's Venom as me. That's -- and it's not even the good one. It's Mac Gargan... the Scorpion... Guy used to fight with a scorpion tail. You know... he used to throw his butt at you.
- I am the Spider. I own the night. I'm your worst nightmare come to life, punk, and you're looking right at--*Kof!* *Hack!* How can he keep that up for an entire movie..?
- Seriously, a clinic that super heroes frequent and you think, "That's the place I want to rip off next"?! Let me ask you, and be honest, are you stupid? Or really, really stupid?
- You're complaining about how you look? You've got a cool hood and cape...I'm wearing lime green! And I've got a star on the middle of my nose!
- Wow, you know you're in crazytown when Osborn's the voice of reason.
- My name is Peter Parker. The world hates a coward.
- I'm not your pal. And these? These aren't my clothes. This's my disguise. It's not who I am. This--this super hero stuff isn't my life! My real life's back on Earth! With my real friends and my real family...
- Must. Wash. Brain...!
- Spoiler! I've read that one! Turns out he likes green eggs and ham!
- Bowl Psi-Isad Oosh (say it fast)
- Mr. Negative was never born, so he is ever living! He is attached to nothing, thus one with all! Now that you Lao Fan have come to Chinatown -- I will choke the streets with your dead!!
- Have I been wrong all these years? Is snark a spider-ability?
- Check the rulebook, buddy! You're not allowed to bring automatic weapons into a super-people fight! Unless you're the Punisher 'cause, you know, who's gonna tell him it's against the rules?
- You've worked so hard, Harry, to do the right thing in your life...You risked everything...to save me...a man you hate...Kill him, and everything you've built in your life goes away. I promise you.
- Man. I should start a blog. "Spiderfail.org"
- Hi, Danielle. I Pida-Man. Spida-Mun. Spider-Man. I don't even know what I just blabbered. Just pick the one that made the most sense.
- I let it all go by pulling her closer and everything else fades away. For a second.. the last second before my brain shuts off and I become all body, I can't help but think what a bad idea this is... And I smile. Bring it on.
- You down to punishing strippers now, Frank?
- She's a bad guy, folks. You should stop giving her attention and use the internet for what it was invented for...using the Googles to find Norman Os-porn. Everybody knows that.
- Yeah, well I need a Video Music Award, but you don't see me attacking Taylor Swift.
- To coin a cliche: Face it tigress -- you just hit the jackpot!
- Eesh! And I though I was obnoxious!
- Sorry folks, Screwball's webcast is off the air. Please go back to watching monkeys on ice-skates or whatever else you do with the internet.
- You think this is a lot of wreckage? This is nothin'! This one time, Doc Ock dumped his entire underwater headquarters on me! Water was rushing in...but I never gave up! I never gave in! I have to be equal to my strength -- or else I don't deserve it! NNNN! The strain -- NNNNN! -- it's unbearable -- but -- but -- um, yeah... Actually, I can't lift this. Little help over here? Please? Bueller?
- Be right back. Gotta hit the little Peter room.
- I'm talking to the guy who's filming, watching, and getting his jollies from every minute of this. You went too far this time, Mysterio! Now it's personal!
- Jonah may be--is--the cheapest, most arrogant, most annoying carbon-based life form in the galaxy...but even he deserves not to be smeared.
- What do I do now? How did I lose this badly? How much worse can my life get?
- No, you want people to love you for being the good guy. It's not the same thing.
- Hey, do you guys realize that the acronym for "Anti-Spider Squad" is A.S.S.? So I can call you big A.S.S.!, and you dumb A.S.S. and if your team does a tie-in with Hershey's, you can each be a candy A.S.S.!
- This...this won't please the Enigma Force.
- Look, none of us sought the power we have. It just happened to us. We're all here by--accident!
- Oh, God. You're finally going to do it, aren't you, Mac? You're finally going to kiss me.
- Y'think maybe we could move this relationship into another area? Personally, I think we're ready-- --let's swing, baby!
- Yep, that's me... just your friendly neighborhood Spider-God.
- Yeah, business as usual. I'm just a "misunderstood guy with a good heart."
- May...I...I know that I've been annoying you lately. And I'm sorry...I just...I need you Aunt May. Please, stop yelling...I need to know we don't all want to hurt each other...that can't be what's inside everyone.
- Stop! Come back here! Or... Or I'll say "stop" again!
- By the way, my brother wanted me to give you this.
- Please. If I cost you and the tribe any hope of restoring your normal lives-- --how do I live with that?
- And that's why you and our mutual friend here have the same aura, flattop... you both believe just whatever you want to.
- I blew it, Strange, I did the one thing I promised myself I would never do. I put my family in the crosshairs and no matter how many times I go over it in my head, I keep coming back to the same thing. I need the world to forget that I'm Spider-Man.
- The wisest man I ever knew told me with great power comes great responsibility. The smartest man I know lives that. Every day. And I'm proud to call him a friend... ...and Stretcho.
- Hang on! Baby's first ride's about to get bumpy!
- My ex-girlfriends becoming girlfriends? They're gonna spend all their time talking about me, I just know it. Good ol' Parker luck. You never fail to fail...
- Lucky that is exactly how I would describe myself, he said sarcastically.
- This isn't good. Haven't seen him since the massacre. He was part of a crew of super villains that Carnage led through New York City, slaughtering as many civilians as they could. The worst part is the madness spread. Everyday people started rioting... murdering. It was mayhem.
- Remember me? From the fashion police? I'm here about all the white you're wearing after Labor Day.
- You accepted each other for who you are. You were family. Just knowing that was possible...that it might be possible for me...it means a lot. It still does.
- --so I was thinking...since you have the abilities of giant vampire bat, why not just take the name of Batm--
- Everyone thinks your brother's an impossible act to follow. Between him and Captain America-- --there are some role models that always seem to be out of reach. Best the rest of us can do is keep trying.
- What?! Oh, this?! It's how I do my best work! In the buff! Say! Isn't this a private lab?!
- And with all my gear here in my secure vault, for once my Peter-Parker-life is 100% Spider-Free
- With my spider-strength, speed, and agility nothing could've stopped me from landing any sports scholarship-- or getting on any professional team I wanted. Nothing except a sense of responsibility. And a tiny bit of pride.
- That's a crazy expensive way for things to end. I mean, even for Brooklyn that's gotta be expensive.
- Logan. Buddy. If I knew you were coming I'd have baked a cake. But if you want at my little lizard pal, you're gonna have to go through me.
- How are you walking like that?! At these G's?! You been workin' out, Mac?!
- I'm done. Done accepting things the way they are. I swear to you... ...from now on... ...whenever I'm around, wherever I am... No one dies!
- I can do this. It's not impossible. Not for me. I have great power, resources, and resolve. And I will make this work. Not for Uncle Ben, Captain Stacy, Gwen, Marla, or any of the others I failed in the past. This is for you, for all of the living, for everyone out there! I'm going to make you all proud. You'll see. I promise.
- Oy. With the guilt. Fine! Wanna be in the Fantastic Four, Spidey? Sure. What? Oh. We're the Future Foundation now. Bait n' switch if you ask me. Razzin' frazzin'...
- Home sweet home! Dimensionally if not geographically that is...
- Spare me. A thug like you is why I became what I am. You? You're nothing like me.
- Miss Frost, you've got to get to the machine. Make with the smashing!
- This is my fault. I brought them up against an enemy they're not even close to ready for. And now they're going to die. And it's all my fault... Just like Marla...Just like Uncle Ben. I didn't save him. He died because I was weak. Because I wasn't good enough. I made a promise to him that day that I could never be good enough to keep... But I swore I'd never stop trying. I know I'm not good enough. I never will be. That's no excuse to stop fighting. No matter how much it scares me. No matter how much it hurts. Ben Parker taught me that. And nothing scares me more than letting him down.
- Not gonna happen. I'm not giving up on you. Any of you. There have been plenty of times I wanted to give up on myself. When just about everybody wrote me off. But there was always someone who didn't. Some of those people are still around... and some aren't. They believed in me. And there's no way I'd let them down. I believe in you. And this foot! I know you've been through a lot. Things nobody should have to face. But I'll show you there's always a better way.
- Nothing was going to stop it. And, like that, the Avengers were never going to be the same again. No joke.
- This has got to be the worst alternate universe ever.
- I don't even know how long I've been going. Fifteen, sixteen hours? Carlie is alright, thank God. I found her in her apartment with a knife, scared that every killer she ever helped put away was coming to get her. No one's heard from May, but everything's down now. She could be anywhere... But the one place she probably is, I can't seem to get to. Because no matter how I scared I am for her... ...I can't let people die.
- Batroc? Let the leaping begin! ... The thing is, you're so mock-able. I'm sorry, but you wear a mask and use your own name? That's not a secret identity, Bats. That's just an identity. With a mask.
- I can feel it, gnawing at me. The fear. It's so raw, so real... I see them all, everyone I care about, everyone I love. Carlie... dead. Mary Jane, dead because of me. Aunt May, dead. Because I wasn't good enough. I wasn't fast enough, I wasn't strong enough, I wasn't smart enough, and she's dead because of me. My fault. My responsibility. And I failed them. I failed them all. Please, God, somebody make it stop. The fear is so strong it's like I'm on fire. So powerful I can feel it.
- There is no hope. I can barely stand. I can't feel my right arm. There's blood in my eyes, my ears. He's stronger than me. I can't even hurt him. There is no hope... but luckily... I'm too big of an idiot to accept it.
- Hey. If you're watching this, you know what's going on. Some New Yorkers woke up today with spider-powers... And they're tearing the city apart. And all over the world, no one's asking "Why would they do that?" Because everybody knows... New Yorkers are loud, rude, obnoxious jerks! Well, guess what? The rest of the world is wrong! 'Cause today, like a lot of you, I found out that I've got spider-powers too! And I'm gonna do my part! My name's Peter Parker, I'm a native New Yorker... And when I look around this city, I don't see a bunch a' jerks. Know what I see? Teachers, nurses, cops, parents, neighboors, friends... Good people who give their all! Everywhere I look, I see heroes! Now lets show 'em this didn't just happen to the jerks, it happened to the real New Yorkers too! And that today, we're not just heroes... We're Super-Heroes!
- You are so related to Wolverine.
- I think when I went through that door I kept saying over and over in my mind... I need to go to Tahiti. I need a million dollars. I need a new girlfriend. What do I get? A Jarvis burger and a fruity drink.
- I could be famous
- They can chain her up, but they can't take away her bad luck powers. And if I know Felicia...She's not sitting still waiting for a rescue.
- I think this is my super villain origin.
- With my spider-strength, speed, and agility nothing could've stopped me from landing any sports scholarship-- or getting on any professional team I wanted. Nothing except a sense of responsibility. And a tiny bit of pride.
- Why didn't I see it before?! Doc's ice pellet! It's the same tech I created for my cryo cube! And the armor he's using... It's based on my helmet design! His stealth satellites... are using the same principle as my noice reduction system! All my inventions for Horizon, everything I've put out into the world--Doc's modified it! Twisted it! I've given him everything he needs! THIS IS ALL MY FAULT!
- Oy. With the guilt. Fine! Wanna be in the Fantastic Four, Spidey? Sure. What? Oh. We're the Future Foundation now. Bait n' switch if you ask me. Razzin' frazzin'...
- C'mon! The world's counting on you! Everyone you know and love! What about Sable?! Are you going to let her sacrifice be for nothing?! Forget the math, Parker! Forget what's possible! DO THIS! NOW!
- This is a hunt. I'm not here to fight you--- I'm here to end you!
- Two minutes earlier, Silver Sable put her life on the line, with no weapons and no expectation it was going to work. It was one of the bravest things I'd ever seen. But now, it looked lime Sable was back to her old mercenary self. Until I saw something no one else votadas to see... A smile for the princesas and her new husband. It was a teeny one. Blink and it was gone... But I saw it. And that's when I knew who Silver Sable really was. Incredibly brave. One of the most dangerous fighters I've ever seen...but she only pretended to be all about the money...because sometimes she put it all on the line for love. It's why she did everything. Love of her country. Family. Friends. Love of a rare vintage of champagne. And most of all, a love of adventure--Of life.
- One scientific mishap, and hours later I'm sewing a costume. Déjà diddly vu. Okay, world, better hang on to your hat... Here comes Alpha!
- It's been eight days since the fall of Wakanda. Eight days since we came here with our tail between our legs. And every day since. It's only gotten worse. It's gotten so that every time I hear that mystical portal start to open. My heart sinks. I haven't cracked a joke in weeks. There's just nothing funny about the end of the world.
- Something else Ben used to say..."With great powers comes great responsibility." I learned the truth of that one the hard way...right here. An accident at the science hall gave me my powers--but in that old warehouse, I truly learned what it means to be Spider-Man. And now it's gone. But Jonah was right, it won't be forgotten. I can never forget. This site will always be a reminder of my responsibilites...my great responsibilites. I'm trying, Uncle Ben...and I'll always keep trying. That's my promise.
- We realllllllly have to stop meeting like this, officer Cooper. People will talk--
- And... And I guess he was right after all... someone is killing the Brooklyn Avengers.
- My life gets pretty crazy sometimes. And... and sometimes I don't remember to thank the people who mean a lot to me. But this week reminded me that friends from the past are important. And also that good things can come...even out of tragedy.
- Hate it whenever they say 'Plan B'. That's super villain code for 'blow everything up'.
- Miles Morales. Miles Morales. I wonder if we have a Miles Morales? Oh my God.
- I think this is my super villain origin.
- I don't even know how long I've been going. Fifteen, sixteen hours? Carlie is alright, thank God. I found her in her apartment with a knife, scared that every killer she ever helped put away was coming to get her. No one's heard from May, but everything's down now. She could be anywhere... But the one place she probably is, I can't seem to get to. Because no matter how I scared I am for her... ...I can't let people die.
- I can feel it, gnawing at me. The fear. It's so raw, so real... I see them all, everyone I care about, everyone I love. Carlie... dead. Mary Jane, dead because of me. Aunt May, dead. Because I wasn't good enough. I wasn't fast enough, I wasn't strong enough, I wasn't smart enough, and she's dead because of me. My fault. My responsibility. And I failed them. I failed them all. Please, God, somebody make it stop. The fear is so strong it's like I'm on fire. So powerful I can feel it.
- Surrounded by a pack of vicious velociraptors. It's like this nightmare I had once...only this time I'm not naked.
- My mind must be going. I brought super villains into this...almost freed the Lizard. I shouldn't be a part of any of this. I--I'm Spider-Man.
- There is no hope. I can barely stand. I can't feel my right arm. There's blood in my eyes, my ears. He's stronger than me. I can't even hurt him. There is no hope... but luckily... I'm too big of an idiot to accept it.
- Figures. Fuzzball gets the hot cat-lady, and I get locked in the bathroom.
- One scientific mishap, and hours later I'm sewing a costume. Déjà diddly vu. Okay world, better hang on to your hat... here comes Alpha!
- That was me, Otto. You can't hear me, can you? You don't even known I'm here. Doesn't matter. You don't get to kill. I won't let you. I don't know how, but I am still in the fight! I am Peter Parker. And I swear I'll find a way back!
- C'mon! The world's counting on you! Everyone you know and love! What about Sable?! Are you going to let her sacrifice be for nothing?! Forget the math, Parker! Forget what's possible! DO THIS! NOW!
- This is a hunt. I'm not here to fight you--- I'm here to end you!
- That's weird. The master plan was to drop me in the ocean to drown? Not likely. These guys never work like this together. So who's rallying the troops? To be this organized? They need a boss. A general. A Kingpin.
- Each night has the same pattern. It begins with the hope that people won't need me. And each night ends the same way... Knowing there isn't enough time... That there's always more to do... That even Spider-Man can run out of strength.
- I beg to differ, matchstick-- --but I'm not exactly sweatin' this one.
- But sometimes fighting fire with fire isn't the answer...
- Once the fighting began, instinct just took over. Carnage flowing through your blood...like venom.
- I'm Peter Parker! I'm back! And this is just the beginning! Because I swear to you... I will be-- FREE!
- And then I think I got it. As long as you have that one thing in place... the rest will take care of itself.
- My name is Peter Parker. The real Peter Parker, that is. For a while I had been locked in this brain that Ock and I both shared. Call my role in all of this what you will: a participant in his life, an observer to his memories, but watching this particular story unfold has given me new perspective on Ock's actions. And while I don't condone the things he's done, I can at least understand them a bit more. To his credit, it was Otto's scientific findings that helped create the Goblin cure, so in a way he did win his battle with Norman. Because not only did he kill the Green Goblin as we know him, but he did it through science. The irony being that what finally enabled this scientific mastermind to become a Superior person, was when he stopped thinking with his head... and started thinking with his heart. As for me, I'm just happy to be back. A lot has changed in my life, and a lot of consequences need to be faced. But for the time being it feels good to look in the mirror and know that behind those Baby Browns is... The Amazing Spider-Man.
