The chaos leads them to a high-security prison where a "possession" phenomenon begins jumping from inmates to guards.

During the brawl, Hulk reveals he remembers Peter’s secret identity, a memory Banner loses upon reverting. The arc culminates when Peter tracks The Hand to a plot involving Matt Murdock. Attempting to stop Daredevil’s forced extraction from prison, Peter is overwhelmed and captured.
