History
Krys Crossman worked as a puzzle designer for the Daily Bugle by day and as supervillain known as the Puzzle Man by night. He was a frequent foe of Spider-Boy before he was temporarily erased from existance.[1]
One day, Robbie Robertson ordered Krys to put down his proudest creation, the word game app on the Daily Bugle website: an angry Crossman believed that the recently returned-to-life Spider-Boy was the reason the app kept crashing and decided to take revenge. He forced Spider-Boy to play his puzzle or he'd erase a photo of him and his mother forever, which he unfortunately did by accident. Spider-Boy, enraged, destroyed Puzzle Man's pencil, depriving him of his powers.[1]Notes
