American comic book: Absolute Spider-Man

Under Norman Osborn's failed upbringing, Harry is a person who is both insecure and introverted, prone to self-doubt, and also flamboyant and eager to prove himself.

After Peter and the other two had all acquired superpowers to varying degrees, Harry clearly expressed his desire for extraordinary power to Peter.

Whether he thinks it's cool or wants to become a superhero someday, Peter, as his childhood friend, understands and supports him.

The premise is that he doesn't touch anything that might affect his fragile mind, such as the Green Goblin serum.

Although there is still no way to acquire superpowers suitable for Harry, some targeted training can be done first.

The main focus of the special training was combat skills, because Peter felt that Harry was better suited for a physical enhancement path.

For characters like Captain America, the Winter Soldier, various Extremis viruses, Green Goblin serum receptors, and even physical enhancers like Spider-Man and Dr. Lizard, close-quarters combat skills are always a valuable asset in any situation.

Peter devised a long-term training plan for Harry.

From the basic stances, footwork, and offensive and defensive rhythms of boxing and kickboxing, one progresses to the elbow and knee strikes, clinching, and low kicks of Muay Thai, and then to the hard strikes and distance control of Kyokushin Karate.

In terms of ground fighting, it progresses from classical wrestling and freestyle wrestling's takedowns, pinnings, and escapes to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu's submissions, chokeholds, ground control, and escapes.

It supplements the rapid joint locks and military-style suppression techniques of the Russian Sambo.

In close combat, it incorporates Israeli Krav Maga's disarming, vital point attacks, and emergency counter-attacks, combined with Systema's force deflection, breathing control, and silent subjugation, along with Wing Chun's close-range fighting, center-line defense, and fast attacks in confined spaces, as well as Filipino martial arts' integration of swords and staffs and unarmed weapon switching.

Finally, the coverage includes close-quarters combat (CQC), urban warfare against multiple opponents, and practical application of emergency weapons (short sticks, daggers, tactical pens).

Harry isn't required to master them all; he only needs to go through all the skills Peter knows during his year-long training.

Then, through long-term practice or actual combat, one relies on bodily instincts to select the part that best suits oneself, and finally integrates it into a set of combat techniques with a strong personal style.

For example, Captain America's shield bash or the Winter Soldier's incredibly skillful use of a dagger.

Just as Peter was choking Harry, Harry's face turned red and veins bulged from lack of oxygen and high pressure,

The computer screen that was placed to the side suddenly lit up, attracting the attention of the four people present.

That was a web crawler program on the computer that had retrieved the breaking news.

"Local time evening, a violent explosion occurred in front of the Hollywood Sky Theatre. The area was instantly engulfed by thick smoke and flames, and debris from the explosion was scattered all over the street, creating chaos at the scene."

According to initial reports from the Los Angeles Fire Department and police, the explosion has injured at least a dozen people, several of whom are seriously injured, including Happy Hogan, head of security at Stark Industries, who has been rushed to the hospital in critical condition.

The source of the explosion is not yet clear.

Peter released Harry and helped him up.

Harry, panting heavily, gave Peter the middle finger, and the two of them looked at the computer screen together.

The news was still playing on the computer:

"Eyewitnesses at the scene said that there had been a physical altercation before the explosion, and a man suddenly lost control in the crowd, which then caused a deflagration. No traces of traditional explosives were found at the scene."

Police declined to comment further on the nature of the explosion, but several counterterrorism experts have been dispatched to the scene.

The White House stated that it is closely monitoring the situation and that the FBI and counterterrorism agencies have fully intervened in the investigation.

The core area of ​​Hollywood has been sealed off, and residents in the surrounding area have been evacuated. The area is under a state of high alert.

"What is this?" Harry asked. "A suicide bomber?"

"No, this is the Extremis Virus, an extremely powerful force. However, the technology is not yet mature, and the virus's receptors, under unstable conditions, will react like this—bong!"

Peter suddenly opened his palm wide in front of Harry, making an exaggerated explosion gesture, and deliberately lowered his voice to simulate a muffled explosion.

Suddenly, Harry, who was already tense, was startled and shrank back.

Before he could even open his mouth to complain, the streamer on the computer screen suddenly said in a hurried tone:

"Breaking news—This station has just received a new video released by 'The Mandarin,' the leader of the Ten Rings terrorist organization. The organization has publicly declared its responsibility for the Hollywood Sky Theatre bombing..."

"It's finally starting," Peter thought to himself.

……

Inside the intensive care unit, Happy lay in a deep coma, his body wrapped in bandages and covered in tubes, with various medical instruments beeping.

Tony stood aside, watching the unconscious Happy.

He didn't speak, but just stared quietly at Happy's bandaged face, his expression frighteningly gloomy.

The Mandarin's announcement of his responsibility was broadcast live from the television in the room, constantly tearing at Tony's sanity.

He seemed to see the corpses of his comrades piled up before him, and the Leviathan whales of the Chitauri circling in the sky, casting a shadow of death.

He seemed to be in a memory, alone, carrying a nuclear bomb through a wormhole and sinking the Chitauri mothership.

The armor then lost power, and he passed through the wormhole, plummeting rapidly.

This time, however, Hulk didn't catch him.

The false feeling of weightlessness jolted him awake from his hallucination, and the familiar anxiety and fear overwhelmed him once again.

Then, anger ignited from the depths of his heart, fueling his anxiety and fear, turning them into fuel for revenge.

He is an avenger, and what he wants to do is take revenge!

After instructing the caregiver to take good care of Happy, Tony left the intensive care unit.

Before leaving, he took one last look at Happy, and a question came to mind: Why can I only be an Avenger?

At the foot of the hospital's main entrance steps, reporters and cameramen had already crowded around, with flashes going off constantly.

Tony walked heavily out of the hospital, his face grave and his eyes still bloodshot.

Reporters swarmed him instantly, microphones were thrust in his face, and questions came one after another:

"Mr. Stark, look here..."

"Is there anything else you can tell us?"

"Hey, Mr. Stark, when is someone going to take this guy down?" A busybody blogger pointed his phone at Tony.

"I was just saying," he said flippantly to the furious Tony.

Tony turned around and looked directly at the blogger: "Is this what you wanted?"

"I have a little holiday greeting that I've been waiting to give to the Mandarin. I've just put together the words."

"My name is Tony Stark, and I'm not afraid of you."

I know you're a coward, so I've made up my mind—you're just finished, buddy.

I will come and collect your body.

This has nothing to do with politics; it's just a simple, old-fashioned revenge.

There is no Pentagon, only you and me.

If you are a real man, this is my home address: Lane 10880, Malibu Coastal Boulevard, 90265.

I'll open the door, isn't that what you wanted?

After saying that, he snatched the phone from the blogger who was filming him and smashed it against the wall, shattering it into pieces: "It's on my tab."

Tony turned and walked toward the sports car, ignoring the uproar, questions, and flashing lights behind him.

The reporters shouted, "Mr. Stark! Mr. Stark!"

Tony opened the car door, got in, closed the door, and drove away from the hospital with the engine roaring, leaving a group of reporters standing there.
