Stalking the night on the lookout for evil-doers is the shadowy figure called the Prowler! For his identity as the Prowler, Hobie Brown developed special wrist and boot launchers. These devices perform a variety of functions, such as firing energy blasts at enemies or shooting a grappling line for quick getaways. In addition, the Prowler's special gloves are tipped with deadly, razor sharp claws. Despite his sinister appearance, the Prowler is actually one of Spider-Man's staunchest allies in his battle against crime.
