![]() ![]() We soon come to find out that the Headsman was acting on orders from Norman Osborn. In this initial encounter, Headsman drove Spider-Man away, allowing the Enforcers to make good their escape. ![]() But just who is he?Ĭleavon Twain (if you caught the “cleave in twain”, or “cut in two” reference, move to the front of the class!) first encountered Spider-Man when he arrived to help the Enforcers escape from ol’ Web-Head sometime shortly after their boss, the Big Man, had been captured (as depicted in “Amazing Spider-Man” #10). As such, he even predates the likes of the Green Goblin, for example. Thus, the Headsman is retroactively an early Spider-Man foe. For this month’s Spider-Tracer article, I thought we’d go back and take a look at one of the many villains created for this comic: The Headsman! So, go grab your axes and flying platforms, let’s ride!īefore we go much further, it’s important to note that all of the “Untold Tales of Spider-Man” comics were set early on in Spider-Man’s crime-fighting career. Hello there, Spidey fans! It feels like it’s been forever since out last Spider-Tracer article, and yet, it’s only been a month! Recently, I purchased the “Untold Tales of Spider-Man” Omnibus, a run from the comics that I’d always meant to read growing up as a kid, I only ever picked up an issue or two, but I liked what I read, and I’ve loved Kurt Busiek and Pat Olliffe’s work on other titles (including “The Avengers” and “Spider-Girl”, respectively). ![]()
