Note: see my previous Spider-Man stories. After Peter Parker's death, Miles Morales has big shoes to fill as he's now the only Spider-Man. He mourns his father and Peter by being with his friends Ganke Lee and Phin Mason. Meanwhile, Roxxon Energy has become the biggest corporation in the city. Phin's older brother, Rick Mason used to work for Roxxon before his death. Rick worked as Project Lead of Nuform, a clean energy research. But Nuform is poisonous as it was sickening Rick and eventually led to his death. In an attempt to shut down the Nuform reactor, it overloaded and vaporized Rick Mason. When Phin learns the truth about her brother's death, she becomes the Tinkerer and forms a partnership with the Underground to avenge her brother. This leads to a war between Roxxon and the Underground. Roxxon even breaks out the Rhino to use him as a weapon. Miles must stop them, but becomes an enemy of both Roxxon and the Underground. Miles also fights the Prowler, who later turned out to be his long lost uncle Aaron. Meanwhile, an obsessed live-streamer who calls herself Screwball uses Spider-Man to get more followers as he needs to stop criminals who she claims to be her "fans". After dealing with Screwball, Miles and his uncle team up to take on Roxxon and the Underground. They succeed in stopping Roxxon and Krieger gets arrested. Phin finds out Miles is Spider-Man and eventually work together to destroy the Nuform reactor, but Phin has to sacrifice to save NYC.
