The Superior Foes of Spider-Man (Comic Book)	comment	Boomerang and the Sinister Six — which only has five members — are a gang of no-name bad guys trying to make it big as super villains. Incompetent and dysfunctional at best, the group spends most of their time committing petty crimes to keep the lights on and bickering amongst each other. However things take a turn for the strange when the gang gets a bizarre opportunity; a chance to make a fortune by stealing a priceless portrait of Doctor Doom—without his mask. Problem is the mob and other supervillains are after the portrait too and superheroes are trying to arrest everyone. Soon the wannabe villains find themselves in a madcap race to recover the portrait and fulfill their dreams.Debuting in July 2013 as a part of the Marvel NOW! initiative, The Superior Foes of Spider-Man is a spin-off to Superior Spider-Man. Written by Nick Spencer and drawn by Steve Lieber, it quickly became notable and acclaimed for its comedic style, use of obscure heroes and villains, and examination of the concept of supervillains.The book ended with issue 17 in November 2014. Spencer's run on Ant-Man, beginning in 2015, serves as a sequel of sorts to the book, picking up with several characters after the events of this series. Spencer's subsequent run on The Amazing Spider-Man also continues Boomerang's storyline and features the Superior Foes as supporting characters.

The Superior Foes of Spider-Man (Comic Book) / int_1869b4b1	comment	Unreliable Narrator: Boomerang rarely tells the complete truth in his narration. First Person Smart Ass: Usually overlaps with this. In issue #9, Speed Demon talks about his various encounters with other heroes, all of which are shown to be incredibly one-sided confrontations on the side of his enemies. According to Word of God, Nick Spencer once said that if any sort of Continuity Snarl happens in this series, it means Fred is lying to the readers. It's also been said that the series can be viewed as something closer to a bar story Boomerang is telling... which it actually is. Boomerang even admits to the guy listening to the story (strongly implied to be Spider-Man in his civilian identity) that he was making up at least half of what happened. invoked In issue #16, Fred lies to the reader about his own near-death.

The Superior Foes of Spider-Man (Comic Book) / int_1f4bb5b4	comment	Let Me Tell You a Story: The Owl is shown doing this toward a minion who had robbed him, after the guy pleads for his life, arguing that since he knows how to rob the Owl, he can stop other people from doing it in the future. The Owl tells him a story about partnering with another criminal, the Man-Bull, and attempting to recruit a third, first by persuasion, and when that didn't work, by threatening his girlfriend. The plan was to show the guy a video of Man-Bull in his home with an implied threat, but Man-Bull hit off with the wife, and so Owl and Man-Bull ended up showing the guy a sex tape, which was... less than persuasive. The moral of the story is basically that it is not a good way to win someone's trust by rubbing in their face something you've done against them (which is why the Owl has the minion Eaten Alive by rats).

Also Boomerang's bartender/love interest. She’s later revealed to be Black Cat, so white. Justified in the case of Beetle (stated to be half-black and half-Dominican) since she's the daughter of Tombstone.

The Looter's ego makes him constantly try to outmaneuver Spider-Man, and this culminates in his being brutally beaten by the "Superior Spider-Man". Later, at a villain support group meeting, he acknowledges that he may have a problem, because even though he logically knows that he will be beaten even worse or killed if he encounters Spider-Man again, he can't stop himself because he "knows" he's superior to everyone else and has to show it by committing crimes.

The Superior Foes of Spider-Man (Comic Book) / int_24321e44	comment	Only Sane Man: Woman, that is. Beetle is the sole member of the team that is even remotely competent as a supervillain—or, at least, as a leader or mastermind. The rest of the team are Mooks at best: potentially effective with competent leadership, little more than thugs if left to their own devices. Overdrive in particular is little more than a super-powered wheel man. At the same time, its repeatedly shown that this is just in comparison to the group; compared to other villains, Beetle is just as much of a loser as the rest of them.

The Superior Foes of Spider-Man (Comic Book) / int_27a42ebc	comment	Spiritual Successor: To Jeff Parker's run on the Thunderbolts which prominently featured Boomerang. Additionally, the series is a successor and semi-sequel to the early '90s miniseries Deadly Foes of Spider-Man, which also focused on a team of low level villains- the "Sinister Syndicate" lead by Abe Jenkins as the Beetle and including among others, Boomerang, Speed Demon, and Shocker. The earlier series provides a context for Fred's feelings toward Abe in this series, in Deadly Foes, pre-Thunderbolts Abe committed some of his worse behavior and betrayed Boomerang, not only setting him up to be caught, but also recommending a lawyer to Fred whom he (Abe) had instructed to throw the case. Nick Spencer's Ant-Man run is one to this comic, revealing what happened to some of the characters after the end of the comic. The Fix, another project by Nick Spencer and Steve Lieber done for Image Comics, is effectively one to to this series in a real world setting and without the PG-13 restrictions.

Even more so because this series occurs in the same time period as Superior Spider-Man. Naturally, the Punisher is also on this list from the villains' perspective. Boomerang actually lists Frank's very existence as the worst thing about being a costumed villain. Speed Demon is terrified to learn that Tombstone is Beetle's father , because of the possible repercussions if anything bad should happen to her, and especially because he tried to sleep with her.

The Superior Foes of Spider-Man (Comic Book) / int_62cae28a	comment	Losing Your Head: Silvio Silvermane lost his cyborg body to a junkyard automobile compactor, but his head is still functional since it's where his power source is stored. His head is currently in the possession of The Owl— or so Boomerang tells his gang. In actuality, the line of bull Boomerang feeds them turns out to be true; Silvermane's head befriended a young boy whose mother owned the junkyard and is later taken away by Shocker.

However he is also the most competent and experienced fighter on the team; and fared the best against Luke Cage and Iron Fist in issue #4. He also states that he has no problem with being seen as a coward since he only cares about getting the job done and getting paid. Silvermane even points out that despite more capable than he thinks, Herman's lack of confidence and his unwillingness to take risks is holding him back.

The Superior Foes of Spider-Man (Comic Book) / int_6509bb9f	comment	Nonindicative Name: Discussed, Boomerang brings up the advantage to only having five members on the Sinister Six is that whomever they are facing would think that there are more of them. Later on, Luke Cage does indeed wonder if there's another member when he breaks into their headquarters. The sixth member was the Living Brain, but then Superior Spider-Man stole it prior to the comic. The name in itself also suggests a more classic line-up of Spider-Man villains, including the likes of Doctor Octopus, Kraven, Electro and others. This series' lineup actually has more in common with the short-lived Sinister Syndicate of the 90's, who most prominently appeared in the Deadly Foes of Spider-Man collection. This also gets lampshaded, Shocker suggests that they go back to calling themselves the Sinister Syndicate, but the idea promptly turned down by Speed Demon and Boomerang saying the the Sinister Syndicate were losers.

All the stories about him sing praises about him being the last good don in New York, who treated everyone well and kept the peace. In reality he was a curmudgeonly Jerkass and racist who would sometimes accidentally order the wrong people assassinated because of his failing memory. Everyone except Hammerhead hated him and just pretended to like him to keep from getting whacked; it became so habitual that even after Silvermane was gone, everyone kept praising him.

As a young man, he idolized superheroes (Spider-man in particular) and made various attempts at gaining superpowers, all of which failed until he met Mr. Negative.

Issue #11 focuses on the members of the supervillain support group Boomerang attends, such as Grizzly and the Looter. Issue #14 deals with Overdrive's backstory and what he and Beetle were up to during the Boomerang's heist.

The Superior Foes of Spider-Man (Comic Book) / int_9dab0a6e	comment	Continuity Nod: Aplenty, mostly to the previous Thunderbolts comics. In the very first issue, Boomerang states that a diamond shipment he planned on robbing was delayed thanks to the Origin Bombs that were hurled at Earth during Jonathan Hickman's opening Avengers arc. At the start of the comic, Shocker is still wearing his Thunderbolts badge from his time on the team. In issue #4, Luke Cage takes it back, declaring that Shocker doesn't deserve to wear it after he quit the team and went right back to being a supervillain. Issue #7 essentially ends up as a prequel of sorts to Captain America #607, showing how Beetle came to work for Zemo against Bucky and The Falcon. Speed Demon alludes to the events of Spider-Island during a discussion about Hercules. In the finale Shocker uses his old Shockmobile, not seen for over thirty years out-of-continuity, to take out the Punisher.

The former, while often derided as an incompetent coward is actually reasonably practical as well as being perhaps the most skilled fighter of the group, putting up a good fight against Luke Cage and single-handedly knocking out the rest of his teammates when his patience wears out. Most notably, when he finally cuts loose in the end he manages to single-handedly defeat the Punisher, though it's possible that part was made up by Boomerang. Similarly, while Overdrive has the least fighting skills, he's great at using his powers to get an advantage. Inverted with Baron Zemo, who is portrayed as being an egotistical Manchild beneath his veneer of badassery.

In the ending, he successfully sues Iron Fist for an exorbitant amount of money for injuring Speed Demon's ankle. Beetle is one when she's not being a supervillain. She's shown in a flashback giving a lecture on how to help a client get away with premeditated murder, and during her legal career, she has provided her services to supervillain contacts. Her father Tombstone is disappointed that she doesn't do this full time and drop the supervillain part, seeing her day job as an attorney as basically "legalized crime" than she can easily get rich at with zero risk of arrest. But she considers being a supervillain a more fun way to get rich.

When Boomerang's girlfriend learns that Fred is a supervillain, she's largely horrified, but admits that it's not a total turn-off. Later on, she even reluctantly gives him advice and tells him that if he's a supervillain, he might as well be the best supervillain he can. In the final issue it's revealed that she's really Black Cat and was simply using Fred to get the Doctor Doom painting. This is revealed to have been Mirage's primary reason for becoming a supervillain, his girlfriend having dumped him and become a "mask chaser" after being saved from Fin Fang Foom by Iron Man.

Needless to say things get very convoluted very quickly.

The Superior Foes of Spider-Man (Comic Book) / int_fe0330fb	type	Brick Joke
The Superior Foes of Spider-Man (Comic Book) / int_fe0330fb	comment	Brick Joke: Tons. For example, in issue #1 Boomerang insists that the name Sinister Six should be kept because it would freak out their opponents by making them think there's one more member hiding nearby. When the Heroes for Hire attack the gang several issues later, Luke Cage expresses that very fear.

The Superior Foes of Spider-Man (Comic Book) / int_fe1ccea	comment	Evil Parents Want Good Kids: Subverted with Tombstone, who didn't want Janice to be a supervillain because he wants her to be a financial attorney, which he thinks is far more profitable and a lot harder to be arrested for.

The Superior Foes of Spider-Man (Comic Book) / int_ff7f34c5	type	Pet the Dog
The Superior Foes of Spider-Man (Comic Book) / int_ff7f34c5	comment	Pet the Dog: Pretty much everything between Tombstone and Beetle. We even get a sequence where he praises her for her success in life and tells her how proud he is... while dumping the body of some guy he had killed for snitching. In issue #14 Speed Demon returns Inspector to his owner and apologizes. In issue #16 Hydro Man saves Shocker from being buried alive. Unfortunately for him, Shocker isn't in the mood for giving any more second chances. Issue #17 has Shocker poised to fight off all of the criminals he saved from the Punisher as they don't know whether to follow him or kill him for the deed, but the conflict is averted when Silvermane jumps in and tells them all to respect Shocker as their new Don.
