The spider-slayer stuff was in the Amazing Spider-Man game
"Cold Blooded Killer" is the headline of the latest Daily Bugle viral article for The Amazing Spider-Man 2, but far more interesting are the numerous Easter Eggs littered throughout this report.
A trial date has been set in the New York Appellate Court for alleged bio-terrorist Dr. Curt Connors. The former Oscorp biogenetics scientist has been indicted on twenty city and state counts, including trespassing, malicious destruction of property, theft of private property, aggravated assault, and using a weapon of mass destruction. Connors has pleaded “not guilty” to all counts. It is expected his defense attorney, Anne Weying, will claim Connors was not responsible for the actions of his genetically transformed alter ego, the Lizard.
Connors claimed that pressure placed on him by his employer, Oscorp, led him to rush his bio-restorative formula and test it on himself. He further stipulated to the grand jury that his decision to use the untested compound was made in an effort to protect the company from experimenting on innocent civilians, as directed by his superiors. Connors’ immediate supervisor at Oscorp, Dr. Rajit Ratha, has been missing since the day before the Lizard’s attack.
Oscorp spokesman, Donald Menken, responded, “We can’t corroborate or deny Dr. Connor’s claims. Dr. Ratha’s abrupt departure from Oscorp has left us with far more questions than answers. Needless to say, Oscorp has always complied with the most stringent local, state and federal regulations for all of our research and development.”
Firstly, it was written by Ned Leeds; the reporter who often battled Peter Parker for the affections of Betty Brant and was eventually brainwashed by Roderick Kingsley into donning the Hobgoblin mantle. Connors' lawyer is none other than Anne Weying, the woman who would later marry Eddie Brock and for a time became She-Venom before committing suicide. Finally, Donald Menken is an Oscorp employee fiercely loyal to Norman Osborn.
According to The Wrap, Sony Pictures Entertainment Co-Chairman Amy Pascal has today hinted that the studio are planning a number of spin-offs featuring various supporting characters from their Spider-Man franchise. "We are going to access Marvel’s full world of Spider-Man characters, so be on the lookout for new heroes and villains," Pascal teased during a presentation to investors earlier today.
Entertainment Chief Michael Lynton has now shed some further light on that, after telling investors today that "We do very much have the ambition about creating a bigger universe around Spider-Man. There are a number of scripts in the works." These will apparently feature various characters and villains from the movie series, and despite not offering any specific details on who exactly are in those scripts, he did reveal that Sony is "working closely with Marvel and Disney."They have a much better relationship with Marvel than Fox, so this should come as good news to fans.
^^^^ but isn't it too late to include Spiderman in the Infinity Gauntlet setup?
