Spider-Man: Far From Home Page #6

---

With our technology and with EDITH, Mysterio will be the greatest hero on Earth!

Yeah!

Then everyone will listen!

Not to a boozy man-child. No!

Not to a hormonal teenager.

No!

To me and to my very wealthy crew.

To us. To us.

To Mysterio! To Mysterio!

To Peter Parker. To Peter Parker!

Poor kid.

Let's get to work.

Peter, oh, my God. Hey. Hey.

We almost died. It's fine. It's fine.

Hey, I'm done with the mission.

Dude, the trip's over. What?

There's monsters coming out of the ground.

Of course our parents want us home.

Don't put me on hold. Peter, you're not dead.

Oh, my God. Yes, good. Stay here. Don't Put some clothes on.

We're booking flights.

We came for science, we're leaving because of witches.

Welcome to the new Dark Ages.

What is going on? We're going home in the morning.

No, no. All the Elementals are gone.

Ned. Coming, sweetie.

Hey, can you guys keep it down? I'm live-streaming.

Yeah. Hey.

Hey. Where were you?

I got lost. We were worried about you.

Good thing you're back. Yeah.

So much for Paris. It would've been fun.

Yeah. Night. Night.

You look ni

Okay.

Hey. Hey.

Look I'm not ready for this trip to be over yet, and I kind of want to do something fun that's not on the itinerary or planned or with Mr. Harrington.

Yes.

"Yes," like you wanna go?

Yes.

Awesome. I'll see you outside in 10 minutes.

Meet me outside in five minutes.

Five is good. Okay.

Okay, bye. Bye.

Night Monkey, help us! Help! Night Monkey!

Hey. Hey.

Where do you wanna go?

Who cares? Awesome.

Okay. Let's go.

I'm glad we're doing this. Yeah, me too.

To see the city a bit.

They used to execute people on this bridge.

They would put them in a basket, and they would drown in the water.

Sorry. It's okay.

There's this thing I've been wanting to talk to you about for a while.

Yeah?

It's our last night in Europe, and I had this plan that I wanted to tell you.

I'm just gonna tell you.

MJ, I "I'm Spider-Man."

What? That's what you were gonna say.

That you're Spider-Man.

No. I'm not Spider-Man.

I've been watching you for a while now.

It's kind of obvious.

I'm not Spider-Man.

What would make you think that I was Spider-Man?

Peter, Washington? Yeah?

The fact that you disappear out of nowhere for no reason.

No, I was sick. Remember? I had my The tummy?

Susan Yang thinks you're a male escort.

What? Of course I'm not a male escort.

Then you're Spider-Man. I'm not Spider-Man at all.

What about tonight? You snuck off, and you fought that thing. I saw you.

You can't have seen me because I'm not Spider-Man.

Also, on the news, it was the Night Monkey.

The Night Monkey? Yeah.

That's what it said on the news, and the news never lies.

Night Monkey. Okay. What are you doing?

Well, do the Night Monkey and Spider-Man use the same webs?

I mean, maybe.

Maybe he's a Spider Monkey. Who knows?

Were you only watching me because you thought I was Spider-Man?

Yeah.

Why else would I be watching you?

Doesn't matter. Just thought that maybe

What the hell was that?

I don't know.

What is it, some kind of projector or something?

Yeah, but it's really advanced.

It It looked so real.

It Yeah, really real.

Wait, does that mean that? The Elementals are fake?

That doesn't make any sense because we were there, right?

There was fire and destruction, and Who would do something like that?

Mysterio.

I am Spider-Man.

And I've really messed up. Wait. You're being serious?

You're 100 percent serious? Because it's not funny.

No, I'm not joking.

Because I was I was only like 67 percent sure.

MJ So why are you here?

Why are you on this school trip? I know you have a lot of questions, but we have to get out of here, okay?

Okay. Okay. I can't believe I figured it out!

You took everything from me!

This is for my family!

Pause.

Pause.

Sorry.

Yeah, can you just fast-forward to the end?

Yep. Stand by.

All right, fly, fly, fly, zap, zap, zap.

Pause. I'm not in love with this choreography, but it'll do.

Kill image.

De-cloak drones.

All right, weapons.

You want to weaponize? Yep.

Weapons only. Stand by.

Nice. Stop.

Something. I don't know what it is. It's something Just dou You know what? Double the damage and then run it again.

You want me to double it up?

Yeah. All right.

Cover your ears.

That is good! That's good.

We on schedule? Oh, yeah.

Uploading software hack to EDITH network.

With her drones, we'll create an event big enough to cover an entire city.

All right, well done.

Make sure every drone is weapons-hot. We need maximum damage.

That is gonna cause a lot of casualties. Oh, yeah.

More casualties, more coverage. I gotta cut through the static.

London is a beautiful city, and it will suffer, but they can rebuild.

If I'm the next Iron Man, I need to save the world from an Avengers-level threat.

But when its new savior descends, all those casualties will be forgotten.

Janice, you'll be in position with my quick-change armor for the victory lap?

Of course. Do you wanna try?

No, no, that's What's going on with my hand?

Why is that happening?

Oh, one of the drones that came back from the plaza was missing a projector.

It's fine.

Wait, and you're? You're telling me this now?

It's It's one drone.

The image will be perfect, I promise. That projector is evidence.

It's going to tell people what we're doing and how we're doing it.

I am trying to fool 7 billion people here, including Nick Fury, who happens to be the most paranoid and most dangerous person on the planet.

If he catches on before I've killed him, he will put a bullet in my head.

And nobody wants a bullet in their head, right?

Right?

William, can you look at me?

Pull up EDITH.

Hello, Quentin.

Hi, honey. I need a level-five search, full-resource protocol for this device.

Magnifying.

There. Search everything going in and out of that building.

Located.

Sh*t.

You know, William, one day, after I've had to kill Peter Parker because of this, I hope you remember that his blood is on your hands!

I can't believe I gave Beck those glasses. How could I be that stupid?

He's probably spying on me right now or sending a drone to come and kill me.

You had access to killer drones?

Yeah, I didn't really want them, especially after I almost killed Brad.

You almost killed Brad?

Look, I have to call Mr. Fury and tell him that Beck's a fraud but I think he tapped my phone. So, what are you gonna do?

I need my suit, and I have to go to Berlin and talk to Mr. Fury in person.

Just

Oh, Ned, perfect.

The costume looks great for the costume party at the prince's castle.

She knows. I told her.

He didn't tell me. I figured it out.

That's cool. Like, a long time ago.

Look, Mysterio is a fraud. But he saved me and Betty's lives.

He's been faking the whole thing with illusion tech.

Yeah, he's using these, like, hologram projectors.

That's crazy.

Yeah.

So you guys were working the case together or what?

It's been mostly me.

Ned, I need you to call May, get her to call Mr. Harrington, say she wanted me to stay with family in Berlin, okay?
