#sinister six

[thyla-scene360]

I have returned with more TSSM AU art. Sorry about the hiatus, real life has been rather busy these last several months.

I’ve had this concept floating around in my head for a while; here’s my take on a much younger Vulture, aka Adrian Toomes.

I mentioned a while back that I imagined him being a Sphynx Cat in my AU. He still is, but I imagine he had a very thin coat of fur running from his nose to the base of his tail in his youth (some sphynxes still retain a small amount of velvety hair on their bodies, although it varies). Unfortunately, a combination of old age and significant stress caused him to lose all but most of it over the years - only a few sparse patches of peach fuzz remain on his back.

Overall I wanted to try and see what Ol’ Beaky may have looked like in his youth while still staying true to his character. I gave him a slicked-back, businessman sort of hairstyle; I also gave him ginger hair as a nod to the comics (yeah, Adrian was apparently red-haired in his youth, both in the comics and in the 90s animated series).

Anyways, here’s a couple of headcanons I came up with for him, taking inspiration from some of the movie and tv adaptations (including tssm of course).

Unlike many of his fellow villains, Adrian didn’t have a particularly bad or unstable upbringing. He actually had a pretty normal childhood all things considered, and was raised by strict but loving parents.

Hot-tempered, disciplined, straightforward, and determined, Adrian’s turn to villainy was in truth far more gradual than most were led to believe. Decades of stress, frustration, and failure in addition to experiencing workplace corruption first-hand slowly hardened his heart. The bright-eyed young man with big ideas who joined the engineering business in the hopes of revolutionizing the industry was now a cynical, tired, and bitter old man with a short temper and an even shorter patience. The final straw was having his life’s work (years of research, setbacks, failure, and constant work) stolen out from under him by a mega corporation with no hope of recognition or even an ounce of compensation.

Adrian and Otto have been longtime friends, having known each other and worked together since their Tricorp days. Despite his cold exterior, the former cared a great deal for his friend and worried extensively about him during their time at Oscorp. Adrian knew it was only a matter of time until Otto received the same backstabbing treatment as himself, and tried to no avail to convince him to find better employment. However, Otto was simply too afraid of Norman at the time to do so. It came as no surprise to the old bird to find out his good friend had finally snapped…and ironically enough their turn to villainy has strengthened their friendship more than ever. Even through countless failed schemes and prison stays, the pair continue to support and look out for each other.

*Spidey and the Sinister Six having their usual fight*

Doc Ock, landing a hit: You’re getting slow Spider-Man! Age finally catching up to you?

Spider-Man: You wish! I haven’t even hit my 30s! From those costumes I can already tell I failed to save you guys from those midlife crises! Sorry by the way.

Vulture: Watch it wallcr- wait… Did you just say your not in your thirties yet?

Spider-Man: Surprised that this spiders so young and spry? Well-

Electro: Dude I’ve been fighting you for at least 5 fucking years! How old even are you?

Shocker, joking cause he’s the only one who picked up no grown adult acts likes Spidey: Don’t swear in-front of the boy you don’t want him to pick it up.

Rhino: Christ! You’re tellin me I almost crushed some 12-year-olds skull all those years ago?

Spider-Man, regretting his quipping: I was not that young! Like just starting freshman year but-

Sandman, horrified as he’s the only one with a kid and dad instincts(as of my iteration): I could’ve killed a kid…

Shocker, genuinely curious: Are you even old enough to drink? Cruel to kill a man who ain’t had his first drink yet.

Electro: Please tell us you’re at least over 25 as of this fight. Hell, I’ll take over 21!

Spider-Man:….

Sandman, realizing just how young he really is: Oh my god.

Spider-Man: My birthday’s coming up soon so I guess it counts?

Doc Ock, exacerbated: It. Does. Not!

Vulture: What would your mother think if she knew her son was out here risking his life telling poorly constructed jokes?

Spider-Man, offended cause it quips slap: 1. My jokes are great 2. She and my dad are dead so-

Sandman, hysterical cause holy shit he almost killed a kid orphan: OH MY GOD!

Miles needs his own Sinister Six and I NEED them to be so goddam silly. Half of them are like "I'm not fighting a child are you insane" and the others are "finally, an excuse to punch a teenager"

Specifically:

Adrian, on 10 Monster energy drinks: Hey, your web shooters aren't as fast as last week, everything okay?

Miles: no, I stayed up all night and couldn't figure out what's wrong with them :(

Adrian: alright, let's take a look. Your design is so good!

-

Felicia: Hey Junior, wanna annoy Peter B as much as humanly possible?

Miles: Y E S

Felicia: good kid

-

Miles: Did you just. Apologize for existing

Harry: I'm sorry I try not to do it

-

Spot: You're so petty, honestly. I'm trying to change

Miles: YOU TRIED TO DESINTEGRATE MY UNIVERSE??

Spot: That was 2 hours ago

-

Miles: You know I'm 15, right? You punched a 15 year old. A child. As a father.

Flint: Don't.

Miles: Ow. My minor bones are broken. My child self is hurting. I got sand in my teenager baby eyes.

Flint: [sigh]

-

Miles:

Kraven, with the creepiest golden eyes: You're Amazing :) The Best Spider-Man :) Fine Trophy, Indeed :)

Miles: MIGUEL. MIGUEEEEEEEL-

Peter : did you tell everyone we're dating?

Wade : Yes, Petey. I have no self control and I told everyone we're dating.

Peter : OK, no need for sarcasm.

Wade : No, seriously. I have no self control and told everyone that we know, from Avenger, fantastic four, X-men, and the Sinistres Six.

Peter : THE SINISTRES SIX ?!

Wade : and the daily bugle...

J. Jonah Jameson on TV : Spiderman is dating Deadpool! Another proof that he is not a hero!

Theory: Miguel isn't the original anomaly, it's Olivia Octavius

In ATSV it's not stated when other-universe Miguel is killed and current-Miguel takes his place, and we know it's been over a year since Miles became Spider-Man and defeated Ock/Kingpin and Olivia was sucked into the multiverse

Given that Miguel, presumably, set up the entire Spider society, we can assume some time has passed between when his "daughter" disappears and when he becomes the Spider society leader. But again, the movie never says how long. It's possible that Olivia set up her presence in dead-Miguel's universe first, hired some henchman, and one of them killed that universe's Miguel and was replaced by 2099

Wrong fandom but I'm listening

Adrian except he’s a Bingus. I’ve been trying out some different designs for my take on him, and I’m pretty happy with the idea of him being a Sphynx Cat.

[shokuto]

I really hope the Sinister Six cartel consist of the original 60s lineup. I wanna see the insanity of THESE guys being made into big scary mob bosses that lead a criminal empire written in blood together lol
