He whacks the caretaker with his shovel.Meanwhile, a woman named Strange (no doctorate!), a young lady with a less serious demeanor than her 20th century counterpart, thinks it's "Kewl" that she foresees being allies with Spidey in the near future.Miguel reminisces about the Day of the Dead Festival, and how this is where he first wore his costume.
