Spider-Man saves Black Cat from an explosion in her apartment. He brings her back to his pad but Mary Jane shows up to complicate things. A new Blaze is hired by the Foreigner to kill Spider-Man.

After Spider-Man apprehends the villain, Chris Keating murders him in his jail cell and frames Spider-Man for the deed.
