Synopsis
Spider-Man returns home from Latveria looking for the missing Mary Jane only to find that her old manager stole all of their money and he and Aunt May are being forced out of their apartment. Things get worse when, after he stops the Ghost from blowing up half of Manhattan by sabotaging an experiment at Tricorp, he is fired from his job by Twaki. Even Jameson won't buy Spider-Man pictures from him any more. Could things get any worse?
