Bailey Briggs is Spider-Man’s forgotten sidekick Spider-Boy. He is one of the newest additions to the Spider-Family – and one of the most interesting. Having never been bitten by a radioactive spider, Bailey has an origin that is more akin to that of Wolverine than Peter Parker, as he is the result of unethical experimentation. Nonetheless, the young Briggs has already managed to make a decent name for himself in the Marvel Universe and has quickly become a fan favorite addition to the rapidly expanding mythos of one of the world’s most iconic superheroes.While his youth, quirkiness, and awkward similarities to his mentor make him immediately endearing to fans, another contributing factor to Spider-Boy’s newfound popularity and staying power lies in his unique rogues gallery, which is already on par with that of his mentor. While his opponents are certainly threatening (as Briggs himself will enthusiastically attest to), they are also served with a healthy dose of humor, even when seeped in tragedy. Bailey’s attitude toward his enemies helps to sell them as legitimate threats, with him often serving as the only one who realizes how dangerous they really are.Gutterball proves he is a deadly threat by waging an attack on a bowling alley (which suggests some kind of connection to the facility, perhaps as a disgruntled employee who was somehow changed into his current form). The twin automatic firearms he wields provide him with lethal offensive capabilities, while his bowling ball head is referred to as an “Indestructr-o-ball” by Bailey that is strong enough to hurt Spider-Man when he attempts to punch through the orb. Furthermore, the ball is able to protect Gutterball when Spider-Boy throws him headfirst through a brick wall, and while he does not lose consciousness, he is incapacitated enough to be captured.
