Startling developments! We begin with The Shocker, who, it turns out, Bags does a fine rendition of, attacked by some kinda flying thingy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last time being The Deadly Foes of Spider-Man #4<\/a>, of course. Spidey webs Shocky\u2019s hands and prepares to deliver the knockout when a security guard stumbles up onto them. Shocker zaps him out the window into the usual \u201csave him or catch me\u201d scenario. Returning the guard to the room, Spidey finds the owner of the business bemoaning the situation. Mr. Trevor Adkins reveals Shocker took the company\u2019s client list. Spidey asks if he can get a copy for tracking his foe down, and the guy is cool with that. What\u2019s his company do? No one says yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shocker was terrified of The Scourge in Deadly Foes, but it\u2019s been a bit. Feel like Scourge\u2019s time has passed in comics. Ah, well, look at this next page:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who could those people be? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Gosh, WHO could those people BE? What a puzzler! An hour later, Peter\u2019s at school, where previously unseen classmates Jack & Cindy are working on this aging thing. They show Peter one they did of JJJ 20 years older for a laugh as a weird transition to JJJ at The Bugle, where The Shocker is smashing up their records department. So JJJ calls in\u2026 Silver Sable\u2019s WIld Pack? \u201cJameson keeps us on retainer to handle yahoos like you!\u201d So some of Silver\u2019s trained soldiers just\u2026 hang out at The Bugle all day? I mean, it does get attacked by villains way more often than most businesses, but still\u2026 really? Anyway, Shocker escapes them, leaving a big hole in an elevator shaft and a lot confusion behind him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Whatever it is, I can tell you I sure don\u2019t remember.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

WHO COULD THOSE PEOPLE BE? Really not being subtle here. Peter is at home, MJ out doing soap opera-related work. Cross referencing the info Shocker stole has led him to Moeed Labs, makers of a special air compressor meant for the space program, who are customers of the still-unnamed security firm. Peter\u2019s about to go investigate when Aunt May shows up, still trying to talk him out of being a crime photographer. He tells her they\u2019ll have to talk later and just leaves her there alone while he\u2019s off to Spider-Man around. But she looks at his papers and sees the address he\u2019s going to, and decides to go after him. This is very weird and random. Elsewhere, Shocky has found the compressor, which he thinks will make his shockers far more powerful, but then it\u2019s webbed out of his hands and he\u2019s being kicked in the face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

May, what are you doing?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The distraction allows Shocker to get his compressor, which of course is shaped more or less lie a backpack and of course somehow fits right into his gear despite not being designed for it. Spider-Man figures Shocker\u2019s protected from the now-amped-up power of his gauntlets, but the compressor isn\u2019t, so he leaps onto his foe and grabs some hoses, hoping it\u2019ll feedback and stop working, and it does, causing an explosion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

He\u2019s gonna get a real boot out of this? Is he now? That\u2019s an odd expression. Well, it certainly seems like we\u2019re all set for the return of Peter Parker\u2019s parents! We\u2019ll see how that goes in the next ASM. but first: other things.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
