Spider-Slayer

Alistair Smythe is the son of Spencer Smythe: a mad scientist responsible for the creation of Spider-Slayers; robots designed to hunt and kill Spider-man. After his death Alistair carried on his work.

After Spencer failed to kill Spider-Man and ended up getting destroyed as a result, Alistair inherited the legacy from his father and gained a new-found hatred toward Spider-Man. He initially worked for the Kingpin but left in disagreement over how to deal with Spider-Man and went solo.

Alistair wears a carapace that gave him increased strength and gave him the ability to walk again by interconnecting with his spine. Alistair had bird-like talons for feet; a long, curved blade-like weapon jutting from each shoulder; a pair of smaller, jagged blade weapons on each forearm; and a specially made web-shooter that fired from the forearm area. Alistair, like his father, is skilled in the field of Robotics and has rebuilt and created his own Spider-Slayers.
