ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN #122
Issue #122 in the first volume of Ultimate Spider-Man by Brian Bendis and Stuart Immonen. Since the beginning of this series the Shocker has been made out to be a big loser, but this time around he actually shows how dangerous he really can be. He and Spidey fight at the beginning of this comic and the Shocker actually wins a fight for once and holds Spidey captive. Shocker takes Spider-Man to an abandoned warehouse and chains him up onto a rafter. During this Mj and Kitty Pryde try to figure away to help Peter so they go to the police for help. After that we see Shocker telling Spidey his whole life story and how he was done wrong by the company he used to work for, Roxxon of course. It seems Roxxon has a major role in the Ultimate universe, behind the scenes stuff. After Shocker tells his origin he trys to kill Spidey, but Spidey manages to get free and takes out the Shocker once again with one punch. Then Kitty and the police show up. Lil' late it seems. But Spidey and Kitty get to walk away, and Shocker gets locked up for the umpteenth time. This issue was a pretty good read, and i loved that Bendis finally made the Shocker a threat worth mentioning. I love the character of the Shocker and he def deserves to be used as the bad ass bad guy he is. I def recommend this comic.
