We Win, Because You Didn't: Basically what the heroes’ efforts against Fisk boil down to in the climax. They can’t truly take him down (yet), only stop him from succeeding this time. However, the novel directly leads into the events of the game where Fisk is finally brought down. |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: After the fake Shocker attack, Peter watches a TV news segment where most of the commentators note all the incongruities of it and how it’s highly unlikely the Spider-Man there was actually the real deal. Even Fisk notes it’s only because the modern social climate where some people will believe anything that Bingham’s tactic even works on anybody. |

I Reject Your Reality: Bingham has a bad tendency to try to rework the world through his own perspective. Case in point, he doesn't consider Spider-Man worthy of his power and title, hence he himself is the the Spider-Man and the hero of New York is an imposter. Also, he makes up claims that his mother neglected him despite the fact she was one of the few people in his life to be genuinely kind to him. |

Establishing Character Moment: Bingham is introduced as the Blood Spider killing a teenager who thought he was Spider-Man. As Bingham, he introduces himself as an eccentric loner to Fisk's Foster daughter Maya Lopez, revealing himself to be more clever and cunning than initially let on. He introduces himself to New York by blowing up a restaurant full of innocent people while pretending to be a heartless version of Spider-Man. Maya is introduced in a sparring session with three men for Fisk’s entertainment where she disabled them with minimal injury. This establishes her as competent, calculating, and devoted to Fisk but also unwilling to unnecessarily hurt anyone. |

Self-Serving Memory: Bingham prefers remembering people and versions of events the way he wishes to as opposed to reality. It's noticeable regarding his mother; in his childhood flashbacks, he has fond memories of how she'd take care of him and she was one of the few people who was genuinely kind to him; as an adult, to go along with his Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds narrative that he made up in his head, he now likes to imagine his mother was negligent. |

Villainous Breakdown: Blood Spider absolutely loses it when Spider-Man shows up in public to expose him and Fisk. Bingham immediately rushes to the scene (blowing every chance he had of actually framing Spider-Man) and attempts to fight Spider-Man to the death, far more angry and violent than what he's shown before. |

Hijacked by Ganon: Inverted. Despite Hostile Takeover featuring a number of Spider-Man's well-known villains, they are mostly regulated to minor cameos. Fisk is the Big Bad of the novel, but the Blood Spider ends up pushing him to the wayside, despite the latter being a more obscure villain in the comics. |

Contrived Coincidence: The place Bingham decides to bomb during a fake Shocker attack just so happens to be Peter’s favorite sandwich shop and where Anika just so happens to be so that she can die when the bomb goes off. |

Reasonable Authority Figure: Robbie chides MJ for not going through the proper channels when she starts to antagonize Fisk but is clearly appreciative of her bravery and integrity in doing so. |

Unskilled, but Strong |
| | Marvel's Spider-Man: Hostile Takeover / int_f25b1ae6 |
comment |
Unskilled, but Strong: Blood Spider can physically do whatever Spider-Man can but lacks the technique and skill Peter does, relying mostly on brute force and the boxing training he picked up from one of his mom’s boyfriends. |

A Real Man Is a Killer: Blood Spider believes that what should make him worthy of being the "true" Spider-Man is that he is willing to push everyone around and kill innocent people. |

Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: Bingham doesn't understand why Spider-Man cares for and protects people, rather than abusing his power to lord over and terrorize the city. He sees that as proof that Spider-Man is unworthy for his power. |

Darkest Hour |
| | Marvel's Spider-Man: Hostile Takeover / int_f91d1d4f |
comment |
Darkest Hour: Immediately following Spider-Man’s appearance at Fisk’s gala where he was tricked into an altercation with the cops, his entire life falls apart. His reputation is in tatters from the incident. He’s forced to sever his working relationship with Yuri due to the heat it brings. He gets fired from the lab for failing to show up to work at that time. An assistant district attorney sympathetic to Spider-Man is killed by Bingham. Worst of all, MJ assumes Peter jumped into the gala fiasco so recklessly out of an over abundance of concern for her safety and breaks up with him because she feels smothered by him. When the story jumps forward by a few weeks, Peter is still in a funk over it. |

Running Gag: Bingham’s Spider-Man suit’s web lining is too close together to perfectly mimic the actual suit. Everyone from Yuri to the Scorpion to the ADA points this out. |
