Spider-Man #2

This issue is from Peter Parker's perspective.

----

I love this wrestling gig. This precognitive sense that I have makes it impossible for anyone to get a hit in. I’m finally a success! Thank God for that spider bite; it was a true blessing.

 

“Yo, kid!”

 

Is it time for tonight’s pay?

 

“Your performance out there was amazing, but we can’t allow you to continue without revealing your identity.”

 

“Are you serious? I’ve already told you that it’s not an option. If you allow me to wear this mask, I’ll keep drawing in these huge crowds.”

 

“Oh, you can keep wearing the mask, but you’ll need to tell the organization who you really are. How do we know that you’re not an ex-con? Besides, paying you in cash is becoming a real pain in my—!”

 

“Look, just give me tonight’s pay and I’ll get out of your hair. I can get a better job somewhere else!”

 

Damn it! My first real job and I blew it. How typical of—!

 

Wait, there’s the tingling sensation in my head. That means that there’s danger somewhere.

 

“You in the mask! Put your hands behind your head and get on the ground!”

 

Great, there’s a gun pointed at my head and I didn’t do anything! There’s only one way out of this without revealing my identity. Too bad this’ll mean missing my pay.

 

The commotion fades as I dive out of the nearest window. Sure, they’ll run to it, but none of them will expect me to be on top of the building! Thank you, spider powers. What did they want me for, anyway? Sure, a man in a mask is suspicious, but I was just standing there talking to someone! I guess I’ll never find out.

 

Hopefully they won’t miss the costume.
