There was an issue of Amazing Spider-Man about 15 years ago (or more) that had Spidey's adventures in the suburbs. Spidey travels into the 'burbs of NYC to hunt the Scorpion, and discovers that the 'burbs are not the Big City. Included in the hijinks was Spidey trying to webswing away, and finding nothing to swing from. *Thwip* Webline goes up ... and comes down across the street. Spidey stands on a bright, sunshine-lit street corner, looking a bit baffled, while suburbanites stare and a local kid offers the use of his Big Wheel.
Moral of the Story: Unless you're a superhero in the inner city of a Northeastern metropolis, you'd better be able to fly or have a supermobile.
