Kingsley as the new Crime Master would be a very interesting twist. The bigger question though are the Spider-writers smart enough to actually pull this off-the answer would be a big maybe. The truth be told, a monkey could write better than most of the hacks they have on the Spider-books now and I genuinely get the impression that Quesada likes pissing off the fans of Spiderman such as with Sins Past and One More Day( I am sorry but I am still not over those abominations they threw at us). They may end up making the new Crime Master Flash's dad who was never really dead, his old football coach or the uncle he never knew about or some random character no one gives a rat's ass about. Again like I said, I hope Kingsley returns and I am keeping my fingers crossed as Phil Urich sucks as the new Hobgoblin.

They said at the Spidey panel that Slott coordinated the Venom story-line with Remeder. Note that one of Crime Master's goons is a goblin-like character. Note also that the Crime Master is very casual very cunning. I do highly doubt he could be Kingsley, but it would be a nice twist.

He gave me a good enough impression to believe something wondrous is about to happen soon in Spidey. Possibly the greatest thing since '95.

I, for one, hope we get a Lego Hobgoblin minifigure.

So I can pop his head off.

Agreed. Like I said, we will have to wait and see how this plays out.

Imagine if...

Kingpin is revealed to be Kingsley in a fat suit.

You Tube failed me and deleted the file because it was over the fifteen minute limit mark early this morning. I've had to reupload it onto another file sharing site and it's been like that for most of the day. I've got two hours left until it's fully uploaded.

The moment it's uploaded I'll send you a copy along with Jude or Bluestreak. Whomever of the two is online at that time.

That would be as funny if Norman Osborn is revealed to Peter's biological father and Peter imagines his Mom getting banged by him like with Gwen. The stories we could get out of this scenario...... :-D

After reading the latest issue of Venom...Crimemaster theory is looking pretty solid: He's going to war with the Kingpin.

Kingsley being the Crimemaster while using Phil as a brainwashed inside man is a sound theory. And it truly does explain why he gave a Goblin themed gimmick to his #2.

Knowing Marvel, they will reveal the Crime Master to be the ice-cream truck guy who Flash Thompson knew as a kid who went evil or probably the janitor at his high school he went to. In other words, it will probably be some guy no one gives a rat's ass about and most likely not Kingsley( Besides I want Kingsley back as the Hobgoblin myself).

On one hand, being the Crime Master means nothing. The original one was a nobody that Norman conned into an easy alliance. Rememder obviously won't go the related to the original route since it's been done before. There is a small chance it could be Lewis Jr. since he never died, but I doubt it give any impact to Flash's life.

Obviously this person knows working with or against super powered beings. So that means to me this person has experience. Like-wise one with the underworld since he's built up a vast organization so quickly under the notice of Kingpin. That tells me it has to be someone who knows Fisk's habits well.

Now looking at the obvious suspects in Flash's life there's a strong possibility one could the Crime Master. But really Betty Brant, those within the government during his first tenure, or Flash's pop? They lack a :shock:

Now.. we know Slott and Rememder have planned out the Venom run and no doubt they both know Crime Master's identity. Now who could really rock Flash's world? Someone with a past history with Flash?

Who better then Kingsley? The audience thinks he's dead and this new Crime Master showed up just right after he was "dead." Kingsley and Flash have a nasty history with the former doing various things to impact Flash's life when he was the Hobgoblin. Kingsley would know of the Crime Master identity since no doubt Norman had his former partnership with the original. Add with the goblin-esque lackey in Jack O'Lantern one cannot help but ponder whomever is this Crime Master knows the lore with goblins and the original.

The only reason for me to doubt this fact is it's too easy. Also this would impact Flash, Phil, Betty, and Pete's lives so hugely. So honestly this sort of way does make me doubt. Because it makes TOO MUCH SENSE. It's too easy. It can't be could it?
