THE CHARACTERS IN THIS STORY ARE BASED OFF CHARACTERS AND SETTINGS THAT ARE THE PROPERTY OF MARVEL INC. AND THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED, I THOUGHT OF THE STORY BUT THE WORLD IS THEIRS
What do you do when you have a Spider you need destroyed? Well if you're Ferrum Tech you start developing specialized warriors to hunt him down.
Chair #3: "I don't get it, he's knocked over a food truck and fought a couple low level Iron Soldiers. Why are we bothering with a single Spider?"
Chair #2: "Because the Ferrum policy is that we will not suffer a Spider to live. Right now it is just one spider but already the instances of spider graffiti and civil disobedience has increased. We kill this Spider-Man like we killed Peter Parker, brutally and for all the world to see."
The project manager arrives in the conference room and all other conversations stop. He takes his place at the head of the table. He glances around the table at the 7 assembled technicians and weapon designers. "Gentlemen, ideas?"
Everyone just looks at each other for a moment, nobody wants to be the first one to go. Except the man sitting in chair #7 who thinks he's going to wow the project manager with his idea right out of the gate.
Chair #7: "Well back in the old days who was Spider-Man's greatest enemy? The Green Goblin. I propose a redesign..."
Project Manager: "The Green Goblin? Are you kidding? With those lawless gangs in the wilds calling themselves Goblins? They're nearly as bad as the spiders. You're excused."
Chair #7 glances around at the others assembled around the table. Nobody wants to meet his eyes though chair #5 seems like he's trying to hold back a snicker. He gathers up his papers and leaves the conference room heading back to his office. It was a great idea, now he'll probably be lucky to fix up the Iron Armor of guards patrolling the sewers.
Project Manager: "What an idiot. I do hope your ideas are better than that one gentlemen. We have a spider to kill."

This has me very curious about what they're going to do, and I liked the reasoning behind the instant shoot down of the Green Goblin Idea though I may be a bit biased there
@PrinceIMC I can see the rest of the meeting:
Chair #1: How about scorpions? Vultures? Rhinos? Okay I'm just spitballin' here....um a giant octopus!
Project Manager: Get out!
@PrinceIMC: Chair #2: How about a shocking flying sand rhino with a scorpion tail and eight tentacles?
Project Manager: I like it!
