Also, it's a balancing act; one of the key points here is not to make the characters match the comics, but to build them as if they were PCs in a game (even the bad guys are built along these lines). In some cases, particularly when you get into the really super-strong folks, it's nearly impossible to truly stat them because "super-strong" tends to be "as strong as the plot requires". Hercules in the comics has dragged Manhattan Island back into place; Hulk has quite literally held a planet together, and Thor was once able to lift the weight of the Midgard Serpent, an entity that's at least 10,000 miles long (I forget how wide Jormungandr is, but he's been depicted as thrice as wide as Thor is tall). Contrast those feats with other feats where they are unable to lift even a fraction of those weights.

And I have one more question for author, why you use off hand weapon training with ambidexterity? If you have ambidexterity, you don't need off hand weapon training

Bro, what do you think about adding engulfing modificator for molecule man binding?

So... Spideys webs generally are not sticky anyway, post him spraying them, so in this specific case, I'd go with your option 2 build: Victim stays trapped indefinitely unless you apply a limitation. The counter argument would be Ice Bonds on p. 138 which have no duration limitation but should logically melt at some point... though 10 seconds is a bit fast even there. I prefer to think of Ice Bonds as missing a limitation, given how Quicksand works.
