Mary Jane, Sidekick? (No)

The only way Mary Jane would be of any help to Peter would be if he collapsed while he was taking photos. If this was the case, I'm sure Jameson (who is gruff, but has some degree of humanity left) would take care of him. The only way she could help him while he was Spider-Man would be if he just happened to fall by her (in which case he'd most likely land with a splat) or if they just eschewed the whole secret identity thing and Mary Jane stood by waiting for him to fall.

Also, what's this "if"? We all know there's no way you're not going after the Vulture.

If he's not planning to go after the Vulture, is he just planning to take photos of him standing on the rooftop, waiting?

I don't get, is he's either getting dressed as Spidey, or as Peter, cause he's there with his costume all on except the mask...either putting on pants are taking them off...then he holds his ungloved hand up in the last panel.

$20 says this ends with MJ insisting, followed by Peter saying, "Okay, honey. You win!"

I think that he's dressed as SPiderman. He's planning on taking pictures as Peter Parker, then sneaking off to some undisclosed location to whip off his clothing and take on the Vulture.

I thought MJ already was his sidekick? The distractress - with the power to divert the comic away from interesting activities or plot advancements for weeks.

Spiderman is just like us! He puts his hoodie on one leg at a time.
