    This question always bothered me. Why does the Iron Spider Suit have only three mechanical arms? Spiders have 8 legs and so far he has half of them right? Just add four more right!? So why only three? Spiders don't have seven arms!

    Maybe because Peter doesn't want to copy Doc Ock?

    Because the imbecile Tony Stark doesn't know who to count. This is why I, Doctor Octopus, the SUPERIOR genius put 4 waldoes on my suit, which far outstrips any which that imbecile can come up with.

    @symbioticspider-man:Peter: "Hey Tony, I was wondering where the other waldoe was?" Tony: "Oh yeah, here's the thing Pete. I couldn't find the other one, XD" Peter: "..."
