A plot device is a person or an object introduced to a story to affect or advance the plot. In the hands of a skilled writer, the reader or viewer will not notice that the device is a construction of the author—it will seem to follow naturally from the setting or characters in the story. A poorly-written story, on the other hand, may have such awkward or contrived plot devices that the reader has serious trouble maintaining suspension of disbelief; indeed, the devices may even leave plot holes
In any case....you only furthered my point I was attempting to make....
characters can alter from level to level on any given day....that does not mean that EVERYTHING one character does requires a seriously thought out explaination...(which btw I DID effectively explain how and why logan could have the ability to jump 30 feet into the air......somehow EVERYONE saw the pictures...and deems it fi to ***** about them freely...yet those same people, each and every one, missed the explaination....funny) but since you seemed to bring up inconsistancies....

lets look at it like this...Spider man has the ability to take down owerwhelmingly superior foes using a combination of his speed, strength, webbing, agility, mindgames etc etc...
Good I'm glad you finally admitted to this. So based on their skills and abilities and defined by Marvel as well as generally demonstrated in the comic book world, are Cap, Wolvie, DD overwhelming superior to Spider Man in the areas of..
speed?
precognition?
reflexes?
strength?
agility?
long range attacks?
If your answer to these questions is "yes"...then there is no reason for us to continue to debating, because you will have essentially proved yourself to be a fanboy.
If the answer to these questions is no, then let me follow up with another question...
Do these "superior abilities" give Spider man an advantage coming into this battle?
HOWEVER....Spider man constantly has a horrible time when he is confronted by well established and extraordinary fighters of this calibre....he constantly dodges bullets...but has a hard time dodging fists and feet...

Does everyone in here know what a plot device is now?
Spider man constantly has a hard time bringing down daredevil
Spider man constantly gets humiliated by cap....
Spider man constantly gets his ass raped by wolverine alone.....
The only thing that you've proved Jinzin, is that you are very "consistent" with giving misleading information regarding the "consistencies" of battles between the respected combatants.
Let us also not forget, that you've neglected to give us the "complete" story lines, regarding each and every one of the respective battles mentioned above. I can guarantee that all of the examples you've given, involved some sort of "plot device" (there's that word again..)
And let us also not forget, that each and everyone one of your respective examples can be easily rebutted with similar "circular arguments."
Examples of circular arguments:
DD has constantly admitted that he has no chance against Spider man when the wallcrawler is going all out, and is not "hypnotized"<--note..key word here is "hypnotized."
Spider man has constantly humiliated the Red Skull, whom Cap has much difficulty with.
Spider man has constantly webbed up, out maneuvered and made a fool of Wolverine on multiple occasions. (ie X - men Fight, Marvel knights SM, etc)
wolverine breaking out of webbing has been the question all along...so what? we all know that' he'd be using his claws to do it...if he can't...if Spider man pulls off him getting caught in an uncomprimising position such as that, then there are two other guys there to back him up..... so far Spider man hasn't been able to KEEP wolverine sufficiently webbed BY HIMSELF
Stop making up stories. As mentioned above, he's demonstrated the ability to web up Wolverine rather easily on several occasions.
...there's no reason to believe that he can all of the sudden do it NOW...especially when you've got one guy there to get him out if he needed it and another guy there to keep Spider man buisy
You completely lack the ability to reason while debating. Again Jinzin, let me ask you some questions, and please attempt to use logic while answering them.
How is it that Cap and Daredevil would be able to quickly remove the webbing from Wolverine, when characters much stronger than themselves have struggled for a good while to get out of it?
What hinders Spider man from webbing up another Trio member, while they are attempting to free they're fallen comrade?
What long range attacks and abilities do any of the Trio members possess, that would inhibit SM from jumping away and webbing them up while they were attempting to keep SM "buisy"?
.....which all three of these guys are capable of....Spider man's tried to web his hands to the wall, he broke out before it adhered,
I read that issue of MK Spider man..and its fairly obvious the the wallcrawler was not trying to completely web Wolverine up, kill him, or fighting with the idea of "any means necessary" in mind.
How did I come to this conclusion..well from the onset of the "battle", get ready for this..it was established by Captain a that the "battle" was merely a..duh..duh..duh..duh.."TRAINING SESSION."
Argument dead. Seriously bud..you might as well hang it up on this one.
he tried to web his hands to his face, wolvie got out when he FELT LIKE IT....Spider man' tried to web logan to keep him at bay from punisher....logan shredded through the stuff and flip kicked Spider man's sorry ass out of the way.....venom tried to web him up against a tree and stuck his claws into it to boot....wolverine got out...venom tried to completely encase him in symbiote...wolverine got out.....THUS FAR...there is no evidence to support that Spider man can even successfully web wolverine up let alone the three of these guys....while on the other hand..there is a bountiful amount of evidence to support the thesis that he can't even effectively web logan up alone.....
don't get me wrong, Spider man HAS webbed a ton of people up that are physically superior to logan....he's succesfully webbed up impressive heroes and villains alike rendering them useless....wolverine ain't one of them.... Spider man has been able to utilize his webbing in very effective and creative ways..... but not against wolverine....
Pardon me for being rude, but based on your credibility, I find it highly dubious that the examples you've given above are accurate portrayals of what actually took place in those stories. As far as Spider man being able to web up Wolverine goes, refer to the previous responses.
of course you CAN argue PIS CIS for all of this...but the funny thing about that is....when you use that argument, you're arguing against a character that doesn't exist.....
PIS or not, you've constantly given little evidence to validate any of your arguments as being plausible or logical. Concentrate more on the content of what your arguing, and less on the aesthetics(ie scanning pictures) and I can guarantee you that your arguments will carry more credibility.
