I think Spiderman is one of the most underplayed characters in fights with street levelers, and I'm of opinion that he should stomp most of them if he gets serious. (see the Kingpin fight in the "Back in black" arc)Some do have the equipment to pull something (Batman's utility belt, for example) but once it gets into close quarters, he should completly destroy them, and I hate it when it's shown otherwise (the Cap's fights are the best example of this. I also remember an old issue of Amazing Fantasy I think, where Cap's single punch rocked Spiderman's world, and that's stupid)
But then again, Spidey's respect for Cap did play a big part in all of that.
I think we have to realize in KMC, that it is a different matter entirely when someone can smash a tank like a baseball bat and move multiple times faster than a human and has precog and projectile entrapment against a peak human. Same thing here with Thor. Thor fights at his best, just like Spider-Man or anyone else should.
