The viral Tumblr feed for Marc Webb’s The Amazing Spider-Man 2 has been at it again. Last week it was a faux story in The Daily Bugle about Spencer Smythe and his Spider Slayer, today it’s an article about Dr. Connors trial date and other troublesome matters.
"A
trial date has been set in the New York Appellate Court for alleged
bio-terrorist Dr. Curt Connors. The former Oscorp biogenetics scientist has
been indicted on twenty city and state counts, including trespassing, malicious
destruction of property, theft of private property, aggravated assault, and
using a weapon of mass destruction.
Connors
has pleaded “not guilty” to all counts. It is expected his defense attorney,
Anne Weying, will claim Connors was not responsible for the actions of his
genetically transformed alter ego, the Lizard.
Connors
claimed that pressure placed on him by his employer, Oscorp, led him to rush
his bio-restorative formula and test it on himself. He further stipulated to
the grand jury that his decision to use the untested compound was made in an
effort to protect the company from experimenting on innocent civilians, as
directed by his superiors. Connors’ immediate supervisor at Oscorp, Dr. Rajit
Ratha, has been missing since the day before the Lizard’s attack.
Oscorp
spokesman, Donald Menken, responded, “We can’t corroborate or deny Dr. Connor’s
claims. Dr. Ratha’s abrupt departure from Oscorp has left us with far more
questions than answers. Needless to say, Oscorp has always complied with the
most stringent local, state and federal regulations for all of our research and
development.”"
