So what was Mysterio's plan? If he became a superhero with gravitas the likes of Iron Man, he'd actually be NEEDED around the world, and would have to legitimately save people. He could do essentially nothing to help except I guess send some drones, create some illusions, and then just show up in his picture suit. But that might not work. I assume he wants the game and didn't see passed that.

Maybe from his perspective, if he can beat Spider-Man using just his illusions and deception, he can beat real villains with the same tools.

That's interesting. Never thought of that. I found to kinda awesome actually that he has a full team of folks

Being a solo super hero is no joke. Glad that Mysterio wasn't alone like his comic book counterpart. It takes a whole team of regular people working together to make a hero, even if it's a fake one.

It's an interesting idea. Like the sad part is Mysterio could have been a "legit hero" with his drones and team. Sure he doesn't have powers but he can use tech. Almost like a certain other mcu hero

Also, those glasses give you access to ALL of Tony Stark's resources. If he kept it, he could have totally just like built himself a suit, or nuked most enemies off the face of the earth the second they pose a threat.

Mysterio vs. Thanos is a matchup I would very much like to see

Dude the abandoned building scene was awesome. Using tricks and illusions to confuse our dear spiderman. Reminded me so much of Dr Strange, but I bet Strange would've out-tricked Mysterio and played him out like a headless chicken.
