Weisman Q&A Information
Sep. 13th, 2021 10:26 pmIGN: "This week [Doctor Octopus] quickly revealed himself to what was left of the Sinister Six. Why did he want to keep it a secret from them last week?"
Greg Weisman: "I think what we saw this week was his inner circle. Tinkerer, Electro, Vulture - that's the inner circle. Those people were in on it. But not every member of the Sinister Six was part of that inner circle. So although Sandman, Rhino, Kraven are all free, on the loose and still affiliated with the Master Planner, none of the three of them were part of the inner circle, so they didn't know that Ock was the Master Planner. But the other three did know. So that's what we were trying to show by keeping specifically those three in - to tell you the hierarchy."
--
Jesse B.: "Was Tinkerer the one who constructed those androids that Mysterio used, or was it Beck? Or were they provided by someone else?"
Greg Weisman: "Mostly Tinkerer."
--
Jim: "Was Tinkerer working for Tombstone because he had defected or was he merely lending his services for a fee? If the latter, why would Otto let him give the enemy weapons when he knows a gang war is looming?"
Greg Weisman: "Tinkerer is a freelancer."
--
Paul: "How did Beck and Mason escape from police custody after being apprehended in "Persona"?"
Greg Weisman: "That was revealed in a scene cut for time that we showed at the 2009 Comic-Con in San Diego. They used holograms to escape prison."
--
Autumn Leaves: "You mentioned Ock only revealed he was the master planner to his inner circle. Why the tinkerer if he's a freelance agent?"
Greg Weisman: "Guess he needed Tinkerer and/or trusted him."
--
Anonymous: "I have question about Silvermane's robot suit. How did Silvermane got it? I mean, he just has it without any explanation. Did Tinkerer had something to do with it or he stole some technology from Oscorp Or Tri-Corp?"
Greg Weisman: "Tinkerer is my bet."
