* Throughout the show, Peter carries around a brown bag (which he keeps both Peter's and Spidey's supplies in). That style of bag is called a newsboy bag... and Peter's part-time job is at a newspaper. Probably unintentional, but a fun detail nonetheless.



* Mary Jane [[SecretSecretKeeper knows Peter is Spider-Man]], much like the ''Parallel Lives'' story (WordOfGod confirms she figured it out before they met). Of all of Peter's friends, MJ is the only one who takes his excuses at face value, she willingly stays back to save Peter the last dance as if she's expecting him to show up and she warns Peter about Eddie Brock's behaviour.

Of all of Peter's friends, MJ is the only one who takes his excuses at face value, she willingly stays back to save Peter the last dance as if she's expecting him to show up and she warns Peter about Eddie Brock's behaviour. She's also among the most supportive of his friends and his biggest defender whenever someone's mad at him (usually due to Spidey stuff).



* The Master Planner's strategy for the Sinister Six's second attempt to take on Spidey was well thought out and learned from the mistakes of the first time. When the Six fought Spider-Man the first time, he was able to take several of them out with either friendly fire or using their own abilities against the others. Meanwhile, the second time had the Sinister Six split up into pairs who fought Peter two at a time, with abilities to complement the other (Pairing Vulture with Electro ensured there was minimal chances of Vulture getting caught in collateral damage from Electro's lightning unless Max was deliberately aiming for him, Rhino and Sandman already worked together, plus they could only do physical-based attacks that wouldn't do any meaningful damage to the other, while Kraven's heightened senses could see through most of Mysterio's illusions and ensure that Spidey couldn't use those to trick him) while simultaneously marathoning the fight to wear Spider-Man down and tire him out. It obviously didn't work, but points for the effort.

** Tombstone treats everything like a business. With middle managers and layers of separation between him and the actual action. it allows him to offer you both as a criminal mastermind, as well as a figure in the public eye. When Spider-Man arrives on the scene, at first he doesn't believe it and it's only willing to act once he begins cutting into tombstones income. Then, he attempts to remove Spider-Man, through the use of the enforcers and supervillains, and when that fails he attempts to buy Spider-Man out. When this fails, he goes back to the strategy of keeping Spider-Man busy through simply creating new super villains for him to fight. However, this creates his own undoing, As he tends to cut loose those who are no longer profitable for his operations, allowing Doc Ock to set up his own criminal Empire, and creating multiple freelance villains, such as Rhino and Sandman, who aren’t there to help him in his moment of need. The Business practices he employs also alienates Hammerhead at a key moment, leading to his betrayal and Tombstone falling from power.
** Doc Ock employees to primary philosophies when managing his own criminal Empire. He believes in the law of the jungle, as well as the scientific method. Doc ock's creation of the Sinister Six, both iterations, shows the progression of using the scientific method in order to try and figure out how to defeat Spider-Man. Employing new tactics, reinforced equipment which is no longer vulnerable to previous weaknesses, and even new members who are better equipped to handle Spider-Man skills. All the same, Doc Ock is also an opportunist who will exploit any situation to get an advantage. Such as playing off rhinos emotions to get him to destroy the hard drive, or attacking a seemingly weak Silvio Manfredi. In turn, this leads to Doc Ock's defeat. He is not actually physically strong himself, and when cut off from his resources, or an unexpected play enters the game, such as was done through the Green Goblin's son version of hammerhead, his plans fall apart. He may have prevailed over this, however his belief in the law of the Jungle meant that he attacked Sylvia Manfredi, when the two of them easily could have beaten the trap together.
** Finally, Silvio Manfredi is an old-school gangster, with a strong belief in running things through the family. This is shown through his exclusive use of Silver Sable, his own daughter, as his primary means of acting while not present. This old school method of acting is clearly shown in his hydraulic-powered battle suit. Clearly not as advanced as the other supervillains weapons, it's something that he is shown clearly being very familiar with and using with exceptional skill. However, it's also something which Spider-Man and Doc Ock can quickly spot weaknesses in, and begin to dismantle, leaving him helpless. His family philosophy quickly runs into trouble, when Silver Sable is taken out by Hammerhead at the meeting. This direct threat to his daughter immediately has Silvermane fly into what amounts to a frenzy, and attempt to kill tombstone. Silvermane reacted violently to his daughter being threatened, and because of his over-reliance on family, has nobody that he can really call for help from, unlike the other two. However, his reputation also allows him to command respect even after being in prison for years, and when there is an attempted breakout at the Maximum Security Prison, he's quickly able to Rally powerful group of prisoners together, simply through his experience and reputation. Silver means Reliance on what he's familiar with, and his family left him high and dry at a critical moment, but also as clearly served him well in the past.

** Also, everyone knew that May was in the hospital due to a heart attack, but only a few people (namely Peter and his friends at school) knew that she was doing better. Eddie might have thought that May was still fairly sick and close to death, which would make attacking her pointless.



* If the gene cleanser didn’t work on Colonel Jupiter, then why would it work on Venom? Dr Connors mentionned that when John got infected by the symbiote spores, he tried to use the cleanser on him to cure John, but it didn’t work. But when Spidey uses it on Eddie later on, it somehow works? Why? Eddie and John both derived their powers from the symbiote, so if one’s immune, the other should be too.

** the spores are multiple organisms, which needed to be killed collectively and completely to keep them from reproducing again. That’s why Dr.s Connors had limited success with electricity but Spider-Man succeeded. Spider-Man gave it enough amps that all the spores died and none were spared. The Connors likely did not use so much power for safety reasons so the spores were able to reproduce again.

Added DiffLines:

* How Spider-Man catches Mysterio in "Reinforcement". In real life, many spider species have poor eyesight, and can't easily see when something is caught in their webs. So they look for deformities in the web to let them know that prey has been caught, and strike at the deformity. In this episode, this is what Spider-Man does to capture the invisible Mysterio; he coats the entire department store floor in a massive web, then looks for the deformity/irregularity in the webbing to find and catch Mysterio.

* Without all those buildings nearby, spidey would have had a harder time against vulture and electro.
* without the tires nearby, it’s doubtful he could have beat electro at all
* He couldn’t overheat rhino, so he had to contain him some other way
* Freezing sand man was the best option at the time
* If he hadn’t found all that perfume, Spider-Man would likely had to go into the sewers or something to throw off Kravens trail
* Spider-Man didn’t even catch mysterio, who probably could have followed Spider-Man after the fight himself if he didn’t want to use another bot.

**One thing of note is that Spider-Man would likely not effectively able to combat all six at once at either point. The first sin 6 fight actually had Spider-Man retreat even while wearing the suit. The second attack from group therapy failed because Spider-Man had more advantages than he did the first time.
*** Spider-Man was using the black suit, although this was true for the first time
*** there were no civilians to worry about
*** Most importantly, Sin 6 weren’t used to working like a team. They all attacked one at a time without working to well with the others in mind. There were too many moving parts which led to people getting in other peoples’ way (especially rhino) and lots of friendly fire. The only ones who worked well together were shocker and electro who were just filling the same function. Despite that, Spider-Man still had a lot of trouble.
**The second time the Sin six got their act together and trained to work in conjunction with each other. They only went with teams of 2 with good synergy to avoid friendly fire shenanigans like the last fight, so Spider-Man had to really think smart to take them down. Even then, most of those fights were only won due to fighting location being in Spider-Man’s favor.

* Flash's disbelief that [[CassandraTruth Eddie is Venom]] seems like an example of him being BookDumb, but it actually makes sense as it's based on the same reasoning that Captain Stacy used, body types. Captain Stacy realized that Chameleon wasn't Spider-Man because he was larger than him. As Flash notes Venom is twice as big as Eddie, thus it's not likely he's Venom. Given the symbiote has a sort of {{Sizeshifter}} effect on Eddie, a fact Flash doesn't know about, it's a logical theory.

* In Rhino's debut episode, Spider-Man points out his one weakness; that his suit is so well isolated it overheats with ease, and needs cooling down regularly; this is actually a problem real-life rhinos have, and they need to refresh/cool down themselves with water or fresh mud, or rest under a tree's shadow, when weather is too hot. Also, in subsequent episodes, Rhino rarely fights on day-time; he fights at night, or when weather is cool enough.

* After curb-stomping Peter in their first battle, Venom declares his intent to attack everyone Peter cares about. His initial target is Aunt May. Peter arrives just in time and fights ferociously, even scoring a few good hits. Still, Venom could've definitely beaten him, but instead decides to reveal his identity as Eddie Brock and go after the person Peter loves the most - Gwen. This makes perfect sense: Eddie wasn't actually trying to kill May and was just toying with Peter, especially since he knew Peter would think of her as the first target. A few episodes earlier, he even says that he "still remembers what a great lady she is". Even if the symbiote was holding a grudge against May, which it has no reason to, Eddie wouldn't allow it to harm her. Might be a case of Even Evil has Standards.
