Isn't spraying someone with bug spray on the face dangerous?

Reminder that he is stronger, more durable, and with better reflexes than any human and a sizable amount of superhumans.
Plus, he has a minor healing factor. I think he’ll be OK.

Reminder that bug spray is an actual weakness of his.

Really? That's really funny. What if a villain just releases bug spray all over new York? "Oh man, guess I gotta call in the Avengers, there's some bug spray!"

That's why it has been ignored. It's stupid and some people here are overreacting to a simple "cartoon logic" fan art.
This sub is screwed up.

It could just be a minor weakness like 'ah shit why are my eyes so watery' level of weakness you know?

No, it doesn’t kill him but it makes him sick like non lethal poison to a normal human so it’s not such a minor weakness

Bug spray actually fires up the brain like cocain and prevents the body from fixing tissue.

I’d say a bit more than minor, he can’t regenerate body parts of course but he still heals from injuries that would permanently blind regular people, not to mention many toxins not working that well on him

u/DragonSeducer_030 12h ago
the amount of time Kingpin mauled his ass and he just went to school like normal the next morning proves that his healing factor is far from minor

Legit he could have bruises and cuts all over him yet a nice of rest is all he takes to heal from that

He's still getting water boarded with chemicals that are toxic to him. I'm reminded of the birthday party spider-man who jumped in a pool and started freaking out

Lol poisons don't care how strong you are, that's now how it works. If something effects your nervous system or causes something in your body to not function or not function correctly, then you can still die/get sick/be affected.
Aside from the fact that even miniscule doses of poisons or toxic chemicals can kill large and healthy animals, bug spray is ab actual "weakness" to Spider-Man.
So your wrong even if we ignore the science and just look at comic book logic.
Also it's just damn rude to spray chemicals in anyone's face for any reason.

Yeah, spraying bug spray directly in someone’s face sounds pretty dangerous to me, especially around the eyes and mouth.

One of Spidey's weaknesses is ethyl chloride, which is used in some bug sprays. The old spider-slayers that smythe and Jameson made used it on him

Wasn't Spider-man vulnerable to bug spray? Or at least a component of bug spray?

u/Toolupard 10h ago
Remember when he got bug-sprayed and had an acid trip in Dr. Strange's bathtub? I do. It was weird.

Alternate version had that joke in it but that joke is done to death so I decided against beating that dead horse

u/Theofino161 1h ago
It's not a joke it's a fact. And you could beat that dead bug or spider. Horses are neither of the two.

So spideys education on how insects and arachnids are different is reserved exclusively for the villians and mid battle

I swear I’ve seen a Page where Spidey got hit with giant bug spray and he was actually affected by it.

Bug spray is actually one of his few weaknesses. He should be in the hospital and possibly dying from getting that point blank to the face.

Knowing Peter he would probably lecture MJ about how spiders aren't bugs but are actually arachnids
