Before he wrote novels, author Michael Seidelman wrote himself a fanfiction script about a fourth Tobey Maguire Spider-Man, and he based it off of the comic book, "Kraven's Last Hunt." Peter Parker is depressed because his best friend, Harry, is dead and his girlfriend, MJ, is away. Right after Peter's college graduation (and saving it from the Rhino), New York is visited by two guys from Russia, Sergei Kravinoff (Kraven) and Dimitri (Chameleon), who want to promote Sergei's reality show about him fighting against dangerous animals while wearing animal skin leotards. But their show is rejected for animal cruelty. When he overhears J Jonah Jameson complaining about Spider-Man, Kraven decides to challenge him to a duel. During the duel, Spider-Man exposes Kraven's stunts as fake. After losing, Kraven is given "Goblin Juice" and then he actually beats the web-slinger and becomes New York's new protector, but it results in the city falling in anarchy. Will Spidey rise from the ground and save the city, or will it be the end of them both?
