Its one thing to poison a super villain with some cookies. But knitting a GOTCHA into a piece of clothing has to be the biggest felx I've read in a comic.
To be fair, you'd have to be a massive idiot who knows less than nothing about NYC to believe that someone who lives in New York would actively choose not to lock their doors. And in MARVEL'S New York at that!
atp there’s way too many “super families”😭😭 even captain marvel is doing it and that movie looks absolutely fucking atrocious. The only good superhero families are: Bat Family Super Family Spider Family Arrow Family Flash Family The Incredibles (honorable mention)
If I had money for a comic book character that's sometimes friends, sometimes lovers with a cat-themed villain, who also cares for the main character's loved ones, I'd have two nickels.
I kinda knew something was up when May said that they left their doors unlocked. Lady, I'm pretty sure New York isn't exactly the place where you'd want to keep your door unlocked. She's a real G.
What's even funnier is that this isn't even real world New York: this is MARVEL New York, which is somehow even more dangerous! There's a reason the city needs its own designated Superhero, ie Spider-Man.
Imagine being The Chameleon, with an ability designed for infiltration and deception, knowing the identity of who you're impersonating, and doing literally zero research/recon to at least *act* convincingly. Chameleon really is the worst.
To be fair how was he supposed to do any research or recon ? I'm assuming Avengers tower would be incredibly hard to wiretap, infiltrate or spy on and after Spider-Man's identity was revealed I doubt Peter really spent any time on the town as Peter (cause he's a giant target). He also probably assumed she was just old and senile.
May after being shot: "I already had a wonderful and complete life, Peter. I would like nothing more than you happily living yours with Mary Jane..." Peter: *Proceeds to sell his entire marriage to MJ to Mephisto so that May can live 5 more years as much* May: "Bruh..."
To be completely fair to Peter, he could have just gotten married again. They just kind of weren't married at that point of time because of the deal. Things only went bad bcause of the writers writing Mary Jane and... PAUL....
Aunt May grew up during The Great Depression of the 1930's. That's my Granny's generation. You never met tougher people who also knew how to think fast and get things done quickly. And, of course the most widely-known side-effect of surviving that whole thing was that those people know how to make something from nothing. They are the greatest at modifying, recycling and of course original invention in order to fix problems. Thinkers, planners, survivors, real innovators. I miss my Granny.
Wow aunt May was a baddie for sure she made every elder look jealous seeing how much of a badass she was. For an elder she sure does have that fight in her and she made any villain piss their pants ❤🖤
she didnt actually kill chameleon, the arsenic thing was a bluff. that was actually almond extract. she did put in the sleeping pills, though, to knock him out.
Yup hate the helpless damsel in distress version that's normally portrayed like movie MJ all she does is scream and a damsel she's better in the comics and video games
i love it when a villain goes after the heroes loved ones but they turn out to be even more deadly than said hero (aka, alfred and aunt may) that lady is gansta AF, she didnt need to do that gotcha but she did anyway.
My absolute favorite part about this is the fucking ear to ear grin she had on her face when she showed the "GOTCHA!" knitted towel. She was waiting for that moment her entire fucking life.
I still remember when Aunt May clobbered Spider-Man with a broom since The Daily Bugle was still telling everybody that Spider-Man was a menace. He was so surprised that his spider-sense didn't go off.
Just to let you know, I know this was a month ago but since I waited so long, I have to keep on thanking you for how good the James Gordon Junior video was😁
So aunt may had random poisons and chemicals and knew exactly which ones to put into cookies and Chameleon didn't taste anything was off with them, meaning she specifically chose what would hurt chameleon without him being able to taste it. The fact she even did this just shows that being smart must run in the family I guess.
I don’t think it was random, nor was she expecting him not to taste it. Almonds aren’t an unusual ingredient in cookies so he wouldn’t suspect anything out of the ordinary upon tasting them, but cyanide also tastes like almonds. It says that she used arsenic but I think that might have been a mistake since, according to what I’ve read, arsenic is both tasteless and odorless.
@@geneericname7138 Well I dunno why you brought up Cyanide because if Aunt may did have Cyanide that would definatly be concerning, second of all when I said Random that's referring to the random stuff she had access to. Not saying she put everything in otherwise that would've definatly not worked and she did say she added something like rat poison in and several other poisons which according to google smell and taste like food so she clearly knew exactly what to put in there.
@@madhattermaker622 I brought up cyanide because he mentions that he tastes almonds. Chekhov’s Gun. Edit: 3:20 There’d be no reason for the writers to bring up that he tasted almonds if not to foreshadow the poisoning. While they’re not an unusual ingredient in baking, they are unusual in oatmeal raisin cookies. 4:24 She explicitly states that she added arsenic and that it tastes like almonds. This is why I believe it’s a mistake. “Arsenic trioxide is a white or transparent solid in the form of glassy, shapeless lumps or a crystalline powder that resembles sugar. It has no odor or taste.” per the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry on CDC.gov You’re correct that it would taste like the food, not because it tastes like food but because it wouldn’t affect the taste of the food. I get the impression that you think I’m attacking you, however. I assure you, that’s not my intent.
@@geneericname7138 I don't think you're attacking me. When I said Random chemicals and poisons that was me referring to what she would have in the kitchen and what I was meant to type was she had all these random chemicals and knew which ones to pick. also I did research arsenic after watching this but I respect the effort and even leaving the link to your sources from a .gov website no less, prooving you used a trusted source like I did. The only thing I didn't know up until now is that Cyanide tasted like Almonds so thanks for that!
Oh. You are not comparing her to Bruce Wayne's Alfred like everybody else. That's not good enough. You are making her seem like the Ninja version of the Chuck Norris memes. I like it. :D
It's the un-written rules among super heroes and super villains. Most super villains would not go for harming completely defenseless people; they would go after comparatively strong people just to show dominance. The weaker ones are for weaker jerks to mess with, like the street punks. Stuff like that is supposed to be 'beneath' any real super villain. Chameleon was a rarity, not really truly strong (and apparently not really very bright either...). So it is not much of a surprise that Spidey about strangled that one guy over it before Black Cat got some sense into his brain.
Alzheimer's is weird. It takes NICE people and makes them MEAN and it takes THE WORST people and makes them the biggest sweethearts. That makes me wonder, 'What the hell was Aunt May like in her youth?' She very well could have been one of Alfred's training officers while he was Military... lol
