Now in his junior year of high school, Peter Parker juggles school, work at the Daily Bugle, and his secret life as Spider-Man. Things get more complicated when Gwen Stacy, the new girl and daughter of Police Captain George Stacy, arrives. Peter’s instantly drawn to her—but so is Harry Osborn, Peter’s best friend who still blames Spider-Man for his father Norman’s death. Meanwhile, Eddie Brock, a new photographer at the Bugle, becomes host to the alien symbiote Peter once rejected. With its rage and power fueling him, Eddie becomes Venom, determined to destroy Spider-Man. At Oscorp, 17-year-old Harry meets with crime lord Wilson Fisk, proposing an alliance: if Fisk helps take down Spider-Man, Harry will help fix his operations. Together, they hire Kraven the Hunter. As Kraven tracks Spider-Man across the city, Venom begins a destructive hunt of his own. Peter must survive being hunted on two fronts while protecting those he loves. In the explosive climax, Kraven turns on Venom, seeing him as the greater prize. With sonic tech, Spider-Man weakens the symbiote, saves Eddie, and defeats Kraven. Kraven is arrested. Peter goes to find Harry but when he reaches Oscorp, Harry is gone—and Norman’s tech is missing.
