Great episode, as usual. I'm not surprised Scorpion didn't get any hots, although he was a great villain (at least until he became Venom or whatever the hell happened). As for the costume, there was a story about Scorpion having the delusion that he couldn't remove the costume because it was bonded to his skin, but Spidey and Captain America proved him wrong after they kicked his ass.

Interesting Scourge discussion; as a lone vigilante he was kinda cool, but things got weirdly complicated later when Gruenwald said there were lots of Scourges and they all worked for the Red Skull. I liked the digression into the meaning of the name. I think Attila the Hun was referred to as the Scourge of God because of all the destruction he caused.
