I'm working on Marvel's Spider-Man in American comics.

Chapter 301 We Need a Hunter (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Using a dragon tooth sword handpicked by Strange, Peter successfully severed Otto's four tentacles. Venom then extracted the unconscious symbiote from Otto's body and tossed him aside. Otto didn't lose consciousness, but the loss of his tentacles and symbiote was clearly beyond his expectations. He angrily shouted, "Damn Spider-Man! If you hadn't interfered, none of this would have happened..."

“Your revenge has hurt too many innocent people, Otto. You should take a break.” Peter stuck a spider web to Doctor Octopus’s mouth. “I hope you will tell us about the Erkins Serum. Otherwise, we will have to find the telepaths to deal with you.”

Peter stuck Otto, who was paralyzed in all four limbs and without tentacles, to the ground. He left messages for the NYPD and Black Cat, asking them to keep an eye on the situation. Then he rushed towards the huge hole that the lizardman had created, descended from the sky, aimed at the huge crater, and fell directly into it.

"Can we find the way he left?"

Peter asked this question, and his body instantly transformed into Venom's control. Venom's protruding tongue sensed something in the air and rushed towards the direction the lizardmen had fled. He continued to advance until he finally arrived at the confluence of several sewers, where all the sewage flowed vertically down to the same place. Venom did not jump down, but simply squatted down in front of him.

"The distracting smells are too strong; we can't tell where he went next. Did he jump down? Or did he take another route?"

Venom seemed to be asking itself a question. By the time the lizardman arrived, the smell of blood from his wounds had almost completely dissipated. There could only be one explanation: for the lizardman, his massive wounds had completely healed on their own.

Peter sighed helplessly.

Osborn Technologies' Savage Force Labs is a key Avengers surveillance project, and their monitoring of the potential Lizardmen has never stopped. The Avengers have a "potential villain list" that Reed brought back from the wasteland universe, designed to monitor anyone who becomes a villain in the wasteland without disturbing their lives.

Jarvis would respond immediately once someone started pursuing supernatural powers or equipment.

[I don't think this is your fault. Osborne didn't force him, and he didn't intend to inject himself with the serum. Besides, it was more than an hour after he had left work; no one would expect him to still be in the company checking equipment past 11 p.m.]

"We have to find him; the biggest problem is finding him."

When it became clear that continuing the pursuit was futile, Venom switched control with Peter and asked him a question out of curiosity.

Why do you think he would go looking for his wife and children?

"Dr. Connors said that the modified lizards would consider themselves as an independent species and no longer lizards, and their intelligence seemed to have made a huge leap. They would feel lonely when there were few individuals, so Connors would likely go looking for his relatives."

[Or maybe he'd grab a few girls on the street—sorry, I'm just kidding.]

"That kind of reproduction rate is too slow. Even if he really intends to do that, putting aside the size difference, he'd probably commit suicide from loneliness like the lizards in the lab before the child is even born, unless..."

【What's wrong? 】

"It's nothing, I just thought of some things."

Peter took a deep breath. He thought of a Spider-Man movie with the Lizard as the villain: *The Amazing Spider-Man*. In the latter half of the film, the Lizard's goal was also to create more of his kind. He designed a special mist device to spread his lizard serum, attempting to infect all of New York. Would Connors do the same?

Connors' intelligence was undoubtedly preserved; he still chose not to eat people, but how long he could hold out was something Peter couldn't guess.

He retraced his steps, crawling out of the sewer exit. By then, the NYPD had arrived. He saw Sheriff George Stacy, or rather, Inspector George, who, as always, chose to be on the front lines, putting the dangerous Doctor Octopus into the police car. Peter felt somewhat dazed. He sat on the ground, his mind flashing through many fragments, until Felicia pulled him back to reality. "Are you alright?"

"How's it going with the Avengers?"

"They've already gone to monitor and protect Connors' wife and son. You don't look well, what's wrong?"

“I was just thinking about what Connors might do.” Peter stood up and looked at the dim moon in the sky. “I know about Connors’ research. He said his modified lizards would seek out more of their own kind, or else they would seek suicide.”

"So, we need to keep an eye on the missing women population?"

Although she couldn't see her face under the mask, Felicia Hardy still felt Peter Parker staring at her speechlessly.

“It’s possible, after all, Connors was injected with the Super Soldier Serum, which enhanced his bestial nature as a lizard, but that possibility is not high.” Peter said, while offering his own hypothesis: “The most likely scenario is that he developed a device that could spread the lizard serum in the form of clouds or mist, so that it could be spread throughout New York City at an extremely fast speed.”

Where did he get his laboratory?

"The sewers, the New York sewers are big enough and well hidden enough, there's no need to worry about equipment or anything, the only material he needs is his own blood. I can even put together a mist diffusion device from the junk in my uncle's garage, and he doesn't need any experiments, just to purify the serum."

Anyway, the lizardmen's goal is to create more of their kind, not to create super soldier serum, so they don't need these things.

As Felicia listened to Peter speak, she suddenly noticed his remarkable calmness, as if he understood something: "And you already... have a solution?"

Peter does have a way.

Peter had previously discussed with Dr. Connors and Dr. Jonathan how to reverse the lizardman serum (Chapter 230). If they could obtain a sample of Dr. Connors' serum before his mutation, they could create a neutralizing serum to restore him. Of course, this would take time.

besides……

Peter rubbed his temples. It would be best for him and Dr. Jonathan to handle this, as they would be the easiest to get involved in. Another option would be Beast from the X-Men, but Osborn might not allow outsiders to access Osborn Technologies' core laboratories.

“I have a way to manufacture the neutralizing serum, of course, it will take some time. Besides that, we also need to find a way to capture the lizardman. If we can capture him before he manufactures the serum, then we won’t need to prepare for any special circumstances.”

But how easy is it to pull the Lizard Man out of the New York sewers...?

"If we're going to catch a big lizard, why don't we hire a professional hunter?"

Felicia's words reminded Peter. Peter looked at Felicia, paused for a moment, and then realized, "Yes, there is still one of the world's best hunters in New York. If Connors's lizard-like side is greatly enhanced, then his behavior will be closer to that of a wild beast. As long as we find a powerful hunter to hunt wild beasts, wouldn't that solve the problem?"
　I'd like to recommend a book, a promising early work in American comics; I've read it and it's quite good.
