Shout out to the Mauler twins. They’ve really grown on me since episode 1. Much different than brick villains you typically see in comics. THEORY

I like how flexible their morals are. They're up for anything.

But the nice thing about it is, within that flexibility they are consistent. They have their own motivations, and if something serves that motivation, they’ll do it.

And next time we see Pete, he’s got an arm and shoulder cast but he’s not permanently maimed!

Yeah they could’ve killed him but had no need to

I was like genuinely worried for Pete before they even named him, and I'm glad they didn't kill him.

Honestly their quick-witted responses and jokes sort of remind me of Spider-Man

I think they are one of the true neutral characters of the comic/show.

I mean they still try to murder the president and one of them kills the other during their escape. Just because they have understandable motivations and are charismatic doesn't change the fact they're villains.

They are not good by any means, true neutral characters are only motivated by their goals and don’t care if they do evil acts or good acts.
