Don'tcha just love ransom notes?

The good thing is that Jameson is alive. Doctor Octopus really doesn't have a motive for killing him, does he? Killing Jameson would technically make my life easier--unless he plays the whole "Spider-Man did it!" card. Then no, life would not be easier. Life would suck. And so would prison.

The Daily Bugle recieved the ransom note and threw it in their paper. Doc Ock didn't exactly call me out, which was a nice change. Now it's not my fault. But still, of course I'm going to do something. He's demanding five million dollars for Jameson. Five million! Jeez. Why couldn't he have just robbed a bank of five million and called it a day? No, he has to go around kidnapping unimportant people who think that they're important. Of course.

The Bugle reports that 'the police are handling the situation'. Psh. As if the police can handle Doc Ock? I love the boys in blue, don't get me wrong. But sometimes you gotta fight freaky metal arms with freaky spider powers.

I've got to find out how Ock is going to do the exchange, and where. More importantly, though, I need to find out where he's keeping that blockhead of a newspaper editor. He's probably ranting that Octavius is working with me on this one right now. And I'm working on saving this guy?

Of course you won't let the police handle it. Of course you have to jump in.

Spider-Man, this is Jameson we're talking about. Don't you think it'd be better if you didn't get involved?

No, Deadpool's an idiot. I'll tell you if I find out anything.
