This comic exists solely for the Hulk reference. I came up with it when I was thinking about Scarecrow as one of the villains of the story. But for the longest, I had Spider-Man saying "That's my secret, Bat" or "Bats" or whatever and I didn't like it because I don't see Spider-Man calling Batman either of those things, but I needed something that was one syllable like "Cap" in the original quote. I felt like "Batman" just threw off the rhythm of the joke.

Without conscious effort and because I knew Cyborg was going to be in the comic, my subconscious just made the switch when I started writing the comic so that Cyborg (or Victor Stone) made the setup for Spider-Man's reference.

It's no big deal, but it was something that was bugging me before I wrote this script.
