Spider-Man Actually catches a Thief in a Comic Book Store

This is crazy.

The 45-year-old owner of the Adelaide Comic Centre, who was dressed as Spider-Man, clocked a customer "behaving suspiciously" at the back of the shop. So he sprang – or rather loped – into action.

Security tapes of the incident show Baulderstone, resplendent in his blue and red crime-fighting costume, marching after the apparent thief before stopping him and confiscating his rucksack.

"We had about 40 people dressed up as their favourite superheroes to celebrate International Free Comic Day, so he didn't have much of a choice but to hand the X-Men omnibus back after a little bit of a scuffle," the shop owner told the Advertiser.

"I've had a look at the security footage and it shows Spider-Man running down the corridor of the shop, grabbing this guy, hauling him off."


Again this is crazy, yet heroic.

I'm very laid back and easy going. I like to meet people, read, talk about politics, culture and life. I am a huge comic book fan (X-Men family and Wonder Woman) I also want to say that I am a proud black gay man...no 'down low' drama here
