Well, I did want him to be used more in the Spider-Man books and now I'm getting my wish. I also wondered why Peter hadn't hired him for Parker Industries, and once again, I've gotten my wish. I'm generally happy.

There's some irony in him masquerading as Spider-Man given the last time he did that he thought Peter was trying to frame him for murder.

I'd like to see Hobie use the Prowler persona, instead of pretending to be Spider-Man to cover Pete's tracks. I want him to be an equal, not a sidekick. Prowler should be the one who does the stealthy missions for Spidey. After all, he does operate better in the shadows.

It makes sense though. He'd already faked being Spidey, and the elephant in the room about Spider-Man being "the bodyguard" had to be addressed after the Stark comparison made it into the narrative.
Glad to have him back after RYW, Regent not so much.

I prefer him as Prowler, however this is better than him not being used at all. Considering so many members of Peter's once iconic supporting cast have already fallen by the wayside in recent years, I'd hate to see another suffer that fate.

Do you guys think he'd make a good Hero for Hire?

It's amazing how much better his costume looks when it's drawn baggy and loose like that. Originally Posted by Agent Z

I totally agree with you on that.

Does Brown work for PI only as Prowler or does he do design/engineering work as well?

It would make sense to me if Prowler does design/engineering work as well.

After Drivel Gore II, the costume doesn't include a cloak Originally Posted by Rambler

Actually, that costume redesign debuted in All-New, All-Different Marvel's Amazing Spider-Man before Drivel Gore II (clever name, by the way).

Still is awful to me that he is missing the cloak

He is one of several characters that would have worked really well as part of Heroes for Hire. Originally Posted by Agent Z
