After winning an essay contest run by the Daily Bugle, Chloe Sullivan and her best friend Clark Kent take a trip to New York City. While at the Daily Bugle, they befriend the kind but secretive Peter Parker, a photographer who makes most of his money by taking pictures of Spider-Man. Unbeknownst to the three, nefarious plans involving Os Corp, Lionel, and Lex Luthor are in the works, and it might be up to two super-powered people to stop them...
Written by Russkafin, his is a crossover between Smallville and the original Spider-Man Trilogy. It can be found right here
.
Tropes in this work include:
- Big Applesauce: As this is a Franchise/Spider-Man fic, the majority of the story takes place in New York.
- Loves My Alter Ego: Subverted; J. Jonah Jameson tolerates Peter Parker (as he's a good photographer) but has a clear loathing for Spider-Man.
- Love Triangle: Chloe likes Clark (which is partially why she invited him to New York), but Clark is in love with Lana Lang.
- Missed Him by That Much: As they argue about whether or not Spider-Man is real, Clark and Chloe don't see the web-slinger back-flipping over them.
- No, You: Dr. Morrow and the new Goblin have this exchange:Green Goblin: What's the matter, Dr. Morrow?Dr. Morrow: You...You're dead!Green Goblin: No...you are! (Kills him)
- Shout-Out: Clark, both when he and Chloe left Kansas and when they arrived in the city, stated that "they aren't in Kansas anymore."
- Then Let Me Be Evil: After losing his father and being forced into the role of the leader of a multi-million dollar company, Harry agrees with his father's final orders and subjects himself to the treatment that turns him into the Green Goblin.
- I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: Peter Parker left Mary Jane because he worried that his double life as a crime-fighter would get her killed.
