Conveniently out the same month as the end of Doc Ock’s return, an issue of Unlimited that might be more useful than normal. Or it seems like it could just be a…

The Scarecrow. Not that Scarecrow. Somehow or other, both Marvel and DC have one, and no one’s been sued into oblivion yet. I guess because they’re both relatively minor villains, but DC’s…
