comment |
Spider-Man/Black Cat: The Evil That Men Do is a six-issue mini-series starring Spider-Man and the Black Cat. The comic is written by Kevin Smith, with art by Terry and Rachel Dodson.The story begins with Spider-Man investigating the death of Donald Phillips, a student who seemingly died from a drug overdose but with no evidence as to how the drugs got into his system. Spider-Man's only lead is an actor named Hunter Todd. Meanwhile, the Black Cat, Spider-Man's ally and former romantic partner, is searching for her friend Tricia Lane who was last seen with Todd. When they realize the connection between their two cases, Spider-Man and the Black Cat team up to solve them together while dealing with their unresolved feelings for each other and the tragic end of their relationship. Spider-Man and Black Cat's investigation ultimately leads them to Garrison Klum a.k.a. Mr. Brownstone, a mutant with minor teleportation powers which he uses in his drug dealing business. When Garrison is killed, Felicia is suspected but it turns out to be Garrison's brother Francis.The series was infamous for two things. One was the long hiatus. The series began in 2002, as an intended lead in for a planned run on the main Spider-Man title by Smith. However, after the third issue, the series went on an unplanned hiatus until 2005, when Smith revealed he had finally finished writing the scripts. The final three issues were published in 2006.The other source of controversy was the Retcon to the Black Cat's backstory. Originally, Felicia Hardy became the Black Cat to follow in her father's footsteps as an expert thief. However, Evil That Men Do rewrites Felicia's reasons for becoming the Black Cat to be rape at the hands of her college boyfriend. This retcon was not well received and has thus far gone unaddressed outside of this series.The mini-series' most lasting introduction to the Spider-Man franchise was Francis Klum, who served as the third Mysterio for some time. |

Stronger Sibling: Not only does Francis have greater teleportation powers than Garrison, but he is also a telepath who can influence people and project illusions. However, Francis is far less evil than Garrison and only comes into conflict with Spider-Man due to confusion, fear and misunderstanding. |

Combo Platter Powers: Francis has teleportation (far stronger than his brother) and telepathy. Lampshaded by Daredevil who asks Nightcrawler how a Mutant can possess both. Nightcrawler theorizes that Francis' telepathy is an extension of his teleportation in that he is "teleporting thoughts and suggestions into other people's heads". |

Even Evil Has Standards: Francis is Garrison's brother and partner in crime, but he is shown to be disturbed by Garrison's sadistic and ruthless actions, which run the risk of either exposing them or making them more enemies than they need. Part of the reason Francis kills Garrison is because he feels he is going out of control. |

Batman Gambit: At the tale's conclusion, this is basically Francis Klum's reason for buying the equipment of the currently-absent Mysterio rather than establishing his own supervillain identity, reasoning that by assuming the identity of a known foe he'll put Spider-Man off-guard as the wall-crawler will assume he knows what to expect and be taken by surprise by Klum's other abilities. |

Thanks for the Mammary: Garrison pushes up against Felicia's breast while thanking her and Peter for saving him from Scorpia. Given that he later tries to rape Felicia and is revealed to have been sexually abusing his younger brother Francis since they were kids, it's likely him touching her breast wasn't an accident. |

Lethal Harmless Powers: Garrison Klum has the ability to teleport matter... but only a few grams at a time. Since he works as a drug dealer, a few grams of heroin teleported straight to the heart is all he needs to incapacitate or kill someone. On a more mundane but equally criminal front, it can be used to immediately get a customer high by teleporting a smaller dose of heroin directly into their bloodstream. Francis has teleportation abilities far stronger than that of his brother and can use them to far deadlier effect as he isn't limited to teleporting a few grams of matter. His feats include teleporting Black Cat's mask into Spider-Man's neck and killing his brother Garrison by teleporting into his body and blowing him up. |

Self-Made Orphan: Garrison discovered he had powers when he teleported some mouthwash into his mother's heart, killing her instantly. Unlike most examples of this trope, Garrison's killing of his mother was an accident, but given his complete lack of regret or remorse, he might as well have done it on purpose. |

Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil: The story does not pull any punches about how horrible rape is and the effect it has on the victims. Ryan and Garrison are portrayed as the lowest form of scum for being rapists. Felicia's conversation with Matt Murdock, who is serving as her defense attorney, in issue #4 spells this out blatantly. |

Cerebus Retcon: Felicia was initially just a laidback adventuress who became a thief because it was fun (and to help break her father out of prison). The miniseries reveals that she was raped by her boyfriend, Ryan, in college. The experience led to her becoming bitter and angry, and she became the Black Cat with the intended purpose of killing Ryan for revenge. Unfortunately for her, Ryan died in a car accident, denying Felicia her vengeance and leaving her without closure. Feeling that her life had been stolen from her, Felicia turned to a life of theft. |

Teleportation: Garrison and Francis both use this ability to dangerous effect throughout the series. Garrison has the ability to teleport small amounts of material over a distance. He uses this ability to deliver drugs directly into his customer's system, avoiding telltale signs of drug use such as needle marks. He can also kill or incapacitate people by teleporting a few grams of heroin straight into their heart. Francis' teleportation powers are far less limited. He can teleport himself, anyone else he is carrying and smaller items so long as he can visualize them and where they are. He fights off Spider-Man by teleporting Felicia's mask into his neck and was able to kill his brother Garrison by teleporting into his body and blowing him up. |

Weaponized Teleportation: Garrison can teleport small grams of drugs into people's systems to incapacitate or kill them. When he sees Garrison about to rape Felicia, Francis teleports inside him and explodes him from within. Nightcrawler remarks on the effects of killing someone by teleporting into their body. He avoids doing this himself because of how gross it can be, and because he doesn't kill people. |

Male Gaze |
| | Spider-Man/Black Cat: The Evil That Men Do (Comic Book) / int_dfb71617 |
comment |
Male Gaze: Felicia's introduction in the first issue has her wearing a form-fitting towel before taking a shower, a sequence which focuses a great deal on her body, such as a close up of her washing her legs. It isn't until she checks into a hotel while working the case that we finally see her face. Even after that, there are multiple shots in the first three issues which focus on her breasts, ass or both at once. The covers also draw a lot of attention to her figure. |

Hate Sink: Garrison Klum, a.k.a. Mr. Brownstone. Being a murderer and a drug dealer would be reason enough to despise him. Then we see him try to rape Felicia. Later, we learn that he sexually abused his younger brother Francis all the way up to adulthood and that he also molests teenagers. |

Double Standard: Rape, Male on Male |
| | Spider-Man/Black Cat: The Evil That Men Do (Comic Book) / int_ecd78a30 |
comment |
Double Standard: Rape, Male on Male: Averted and deconstructed. Garrison's sexual abuse of his brother Francis (which occurred all the way up to adulthood) is treated just as seriously as Felicia being raped by her college boyfriend. Felicia shows empathy for Francis and all the pain that Garrison's treatment of him has caused him. However, Francis is afraid to turn himself in and tell others about it because he fears people will either not believe him or mock him for it. |

comment |
Will Not Be a Victim: After Felicia was raped by her boyfriend, she Took a Level in Badass and became the Black Cat because she "didn't want to be another statistic". This attitude is deconstructed; in the present Felicia says that she wished she had reported the rape and gotten therapy instead. |

Attempted Rape: When Felicia breaks into his house to get information on Tricia Lane, Garrison Klum incapacitates her by teleporting drugs into her system and tries to rape her. The final scene of the third issue is him cutting open her costume. The fourth issue reveals that Garrison is dead and Felicia is in jail under suspicion of killing him. In reality, Francis, Garrison's brother, killed him to stop him from raping Felicia. |
