  • Spiderman uncool in the countryside?

    From what I understand he needs a highly urbanized environment a la NY city to do all the cool climbing, clinging and jumping from skyscraper to skyscraper. That's his way to move around quickly to get the next bad guy. IMO without enough big buildings around, he'd just be a strange guy walking around in a funny suit. And he'd always arrive too late. Is there any cool ability that would make him more useful outside of the big cities or would he be essentially a failure as a superhero there?!?

    Yeah, I guess.

      He might still be able to get by in a forested area or a place with a lot of cliffs.

      Barring that he could emulate trapdoor spiders or something. "Hey Green Goblin, come land on this enticing strip of land!" "Sure, I don't see why not... Oh god I'm full of poison!"

            Are you racist against superheroes or why do you want to deny Spidey's personhood???

                  Given the fact that every supervillain ever attacks New York, why would he need to go to the countryside?

                    The villain might be attacking missile silos. Or it might be a Captain Planet villain planting GMO corn.

                      I seem to recall some story arc where he was looking for Will-O-Wisp or something and was out in the country.

                            As someone who lives out in the country, I have to wonder, WTF kind of supervillain would waste his time out here? There's about one business per every twenty miles, at best, and most of the populace has guns. Unless we're talking about the world's most brilliant cattle rustler...
