it's not a danger detector. it's a plot detector, usually for when he gets lost or distracted. this time, it woke him up because he was sleeping through the plot.

The Scorpion can take the suit off, can't he? So it's basically, "I'm arachnid-strong, I get to use this crazy suit to go after Spider-Man, and I'm getting paid for it."

I think the Mechanical Tail (tm) is like welded to his spine or something. edit, per wikipedia: "Jameson decided to turn Gargan into a deadly adversary for Spider-Man through a barely-tested procedure, which left Gargan with an unremovable scorpion-themed armor and the predatory instincts of the arachnid." edit edit: which begs the question how he uses the bathroom. davidspackage fucked around with this message at 21:01 on Jan 20, 2023 |

So, legit props to this story for giving the "Jameson offers a bounty on spiderman" story an actual hook for how it would complicate things. Negative forty props for making the Scorpion origin look like Scorpion got a bunch of powers and doesn't notice he can just unzip teh suit

They waited like sixteen hours for Spidey to fall asleep and now they cant be bothered to wait another five minutes to bask in their triumph. It's a sign of excellent writing when you need your villains to gently caress off at the finish line so that your hero has any chance of victory.

Leader: Okay guys, remember the plan, all of you go and find a cop and tell them you definitely aren't involved in a scheme to kill Spider-Man. When they find his body, the time of death will show we were with them so couldn't possibly be the killers. This plan cannot fail!

Apparently in being reminded of Scorpion he's forgotten unlike Scorpion he can just take his costume off.

It's interesting because the Sunday strip has MJ saying "You shouldn't leave through the window" and Peter asking "Why not?" Then the Monday strip has Peter say "I shouldn't leave through the window" and MJ asking "Why not?" The obvious answer is MJ knows she just told Peter that two seconds ago, but since he forgot he told her and now thinks he came up with that idea by himself, she's playing along so he can feel like he accomplished something. It's very nice of her.

I'm surprised it can hold Spidey's weigh. While I get people with magic or the like, but I am pretty sure we've had multiple people whos only power is "slightly above average strength" break it like silly string.

I think Scorpion is cutting it with his badly drawn claws rather than breaking it with brute force. It's still pretty easy to cut though it seems.
