Peter was traumatised by Connors turning into the Lizard and he had trouble sleeping because of it. Peter spent more time than he usually would as Spider-Man and he noticed how little effect he and the other vigilantes were having on the city. Peter reconnected with Curt and he showed Peter an alien life form that looked like sludge. The life form bonded with Peter making him stronger and faster. Kraven The Hunter arrived to America from Russia. He hoped to hunt the Spider-Man and Lizard. Kraven stalked Spider-Man finding out he was Peter Parker. Meanwhile Mary Jane tried to contact Peter but she had no luck. Peter wasn’t going to classes anymore. Peters behaviour began to shift when Kraven attacked him first. Kraven was easily outmatched so Kraven decided to defeat Spider-Man he’d need to stop his spider sense from working. Kraven ambushed Peter using herbs that made Peter not be able to detect him. He shot and buried Peter alive. Aunt May noticed how Peter had suddenly disappeared and she went all over the city trying to find him. Kraven kidnapped Aunt May and donned the Spider-Man suit. Peter taken over by the symbiote broke out of the ground and brutalised Kraven in front of May. Kraven stabbed May leaving Peter to beat him to death. Peter didn’t talk to anyone after the funeral but Mary Jane visited Peter. Peter screamed at her but Mary Jane closed the door.
