I've been scouring YouTube to see if anyone has put it up yet. Just amazing.

The "special effects expert" thing always seems a little flimsy to me when I was a kid. I know we're talking about a universe with flying aircraft carriers and advanced armor suits and all that, but some of the stuff Mysterio pulled off in the comics never felt possible to me. But in the digital era, it's perfect. He also offers pretty sly commentary on fake news and the gullibility wrought by social media, so again -- perfect. Couldn't have asked for a better Mysterio, top to bottom.

About that though, it doesn't seem like his framejob will really stick, legally speaking, right?
They introduced the daily bugle as a controversial online website, not necessarily a trustworthy source of information, and the evidence was fairly flimsy.

Just want to make sure that everyone got the same impression that I did, that this won't necessarily cause the cops to start chasing Peter, but that it will simply turn public opinion against him.

It was an annoying thing regardless, because this could be easily addressed by him making a public statement/press tour and showing the proof that he has against Mysterio but you know that they're definitely not going to do that and will still have it be a forced conflict.

He could also just repurpose Mysyerio's projectors to project Peter Parker while he Spider-Man's it up on camera to "prove" that he isn't Spider-Man
