Summary[]
Peter Parker sees Sergei Kravinoff promising to kill him on television. Meanwhile, Kravinoff's agent discusses that they need to get 100 episodes of the show for syndication. In class, Gwen Stacy rejoins the others and apologizes for pulling a knife on Kenny McFarlane. Liz Allen tells the teacher that dressing up as superheroes and Mutants is insensitive and her mom is trying to get the project cancelled. Justin Hammer calls doctor John Skrtic in his limo, and Skrtic talks about that they are not having much success creating superpowered individuals. Hammer arrives at a press conference where he introduces his nuclear power plant, and a live feed shows Otto Octavius angrily attacking it. The Midtown High principal announces the Kraven show filming at the school and the disaster at the power plant. Peter hears and runs out of the school, and arrives at the power plant as Spider-Man, falling into it right next to Octavius.
