First issue:
Spellcheck obsessively follows Typeface around from caper to caper, offering his overbearing "services" to help correct Typeface's grammar and punctuation; distracting Typeface long enough for the criminals Typeface was trying to take in to get away. Typeface eventually has enough and trusses Spellcheck up similarly to how Spider-Man leaves random crooks tied up for the police to find. Spider-Man himself finds him and Spellcheck is last seen haranguing Spider-Man about how his name has an unnecessary hyphen.
