Comments & Additional Info
This story is from Untold Tales of Spider-Man, a comic included in the "Main Runs" section of my page. Throughout the whole magazine, several students from Peter's school are introduced, each beginning to experience their own character development, and one of them is Jason... Jason is a guy who (spoiler ahead! I'll give you a moment to stop reading if you don't want any spoilers... okay, time's up... ku-chow! ... cringe... I know... wait, are you still reading? Oh, you are!) falls into depression after the death of his best friend Sally and considers ending his life until Vulture suggests he find a new purpose. That new purpose? To get revenge on Spider-Man. So, he decides to impersonate Spider-Man, do bad things, and that’s how Flash Thompson ends up confronting him.
Then there's Batwing, a poor boy who needs help and is constantly on the run. But I think it’s better if you just read the story for yourself.
