Summary: (Continued from ASM #293) Spidey-Kraven takes out some thugs engaged in a drug shipment. He kills one of them. He leaves when the police arrive on the scene. A woman is kidnapped by Vermin off of a sidewalk & becomes his next victim. A police car sees him in the street. Vermin crashes through the front window & throws an officer to the street, where he is swarmed by rats. The female police officer shoots at Vermin & grazes him. Vermin licks her face because she reminds him of his mother & leaves her alive, although now traumatized. MJ goes to Joe Robertson's apartment to tell him about Peter's absence, but she leaves quickly without telling him anything. Joe seems to suspect that Peter is Spidey. Kraven releases a rat & tracks it to Vermin's sewer location as Spidey-Kraven. They get into a ferocious fight, where Vermin bites him a couple of times. Kraven knocks Vermin unconscious. He carries Vermin's body out of the manhole & onto the street. A hand emerges from Spidey's grave, which is covered with spiders. more
