271. Tangled Web #12 ... Marvel ...

Let's do another review from this series before we move on to other titles, eh?

Firstly, I am not a fan of the writer or the artist but here, the cover sort of kicks all kinds of ass. I mean, Frogman? Hah!

And that's what this tale is about - loser of a villain who is being released with his secret identity made public and coming home. His kid who is now a teen has been having a tough time with a criminal dad who is a lame criminal. And high school being what it is, everyone gives him a tough time. Just when he thought things have approached something of a stability, this has to happen - dad being released and hitting prime time news meant more bullying especially when his biology teach got into the act too

What's charming here is how Spider drop by for a visit and then had to ask for help as his cab had boomed out of town not waiting for him anymore

And then the kid decided WTF why not try on dad's costume and instead of being a baddie, be a goodie. Except he forgot one important thing. When you are pathetic physically in real life, a costume with springs on the soles of your shoes is not going to help you much

While for dad, he realized what he has been through and decided to come through for his son. On the one hand, he scored for standing up for the kid. On the other hand, he hit bottom with his choice of making money (moron!)
