Spoilers, I guess, though it's just me theorizing.










The mystic stuff got to me too, but, judging by the last issue, my theory is that Ezekial is the one who's powers are mystic and Peter's are still the science accident. Ezekial is dumbing his powers down (by getting his blood drained) so that the mystical people who are hunting him down can't 'sniff' him out. He's only 'pretending' to be Peter's friend so that when 'Hunters' come, they'll be more likely to sniff Peter out then him, since his powers have been 'dampened' and Peter is still at full strength.

I know there is a few plot holes, but it's the only way I could come up with to explain away all this mystical stuff, and it creates a really cool new villian, who not only has Peter's powers (Spider-Man vs. Spider-Man fight would own) but Peter is betrayed by a person he considers a friend, and who could have been a potential father figure to him (older, similiar experiences with powers, ect.)

Of course, Ezekial could be softening (as seen by his trying to help MJ with her self-confidence) and he could tell Peter the truth about what he's been doing, but that doesn't create a new villian He should just go all hardcore evil and say he was using Peter to save his own life

That would be a cool storyline, but it's only my theory, and I don't think it will actually happen
