Taking down your friendly neighborhood crime boss should be a lucrative action should it not? Well, it certainly didn't do Peter Parker any favors. After the loss of his uncle, Peter and his aunt have been trying to make ends meet, all while Peter juggles his secret identity and trying to find someone who'll buy his pictures of Spider-Man. But luckily, Pete's just gotten a call from his childhood best friend Harry, offering him a high paying job at his father's company, Oscorp, as a research assistant. Plus, anyone who he thinks might be able to run a Bunsen burner. But catching up with Harry seems to be leading Charlie to feel replaced, and just when a jerk named Mark has decided to make him his new punching bag too. Things might be going well for Peter, but self-satisfaction can prove a small comfort when something disastrous is on the horizon.
