[ minus the spider-sense maybe, but she doesn't really know about the spider-sense. she wouldn't have tried jumping kaine from behind if she thought it might be a possibility, but sometimes you just get lucky. ]
[ So not Venom or any of the other Spiders Norman has already contended with so far, at least by the sound of it and at least recently -- changes in costume were always a possibility. ]
I saw him in Heropa as I was searching for Spider-Man. Given the thematic similarities, I felt a confrontation was appropriate. [ which is to say he was minding his own business when she just attacked him in midair. ]
To compare the two, Spider-Man talks too much, but displays a great deal of skill. The other was less bridled, both by a weak sense of humor and a desire to not hurt his enemy too deeply. He was less concerned by what it meant about you, more about the fact that I was the problem facing him.
