Who's in the mood for a sweet Marvel superhero rumor? No, Daredevil doesn't always choose "dare" when playing truth or dare. She-Hulk didn't get her boobs done. (they get that big and firm when she's grumpy) And that last Wolverine movie won't get any better with age... 

Today's Big Dumb Rumor involves Spider Man 4, (release date - May 5th 2011) and it's one and only central villain.... That's right, this time Spidey won't be fighting three bad guys, or four bad guys, or even ten bad guys - he's focusing all his web-slinging sass at one single villain. Or at least that's what office gossip is telling us. 

So just which mutant is tough enough to take on Spidey in round 4 of this franchise?

This guy:

Happy birthday Spider-Man fans... It's The Lizard!!
