These villains are: the Rhino, the Chameleon, Dr. Octopus, the Scorpion, the Shocker and Mysterio. But an even worse threat is born and that threat is Dr. Farley Stillwell's invention of Neogenics which is taking away Spider-Man's strength and Spider-Man's powers have been on the blink due to the changes in his blood chemistry. In order to lure Spider-Man in one of the Kingpin's traps, Ock kidnapped Peter Parker's Aunt May by pretending he was a medical doctor and says that Peter had collapsed on the street near his clinic.

The six supervillains cannot believe their eyes when Spider-Man walks into their trap at the warehouse. Spider-Man attepts to battle the six, but is captured, tied to a chair, and unmasked by the Insidious Six, but he manages to convince them that he is a fraud. Peter tells them he will lead them to Spider-Man if they release Aunt May. Meanwhile, Silvermane and the Crime Lords grow more disenchanted with The Kingpin and want to put him out of business, so Kingpin kidnaps Silvermane and wages war with the Crime lords by using the Insidious Six to help. Later Peter escapes and becomes Spider-Man and defeats the Insidious Six and saves Silvermane, who pretended he was an innocent wealthy man.

Spider-Man's progressing neogenic mutation is making him ill and he seeks the aid of Professor Charles Xavier. In doing so he meets the X-Men but is disappointed to learn that Xavier does not 'cure' mutancy, only helps those born that way to accept and control their abilities. Later Beast tells Spider-Man to go to Dr. Herbert Landon who is working on a cure for mutants. When Spider-Man leaves, Landon's men kidnap Beast. While Peter is watching Landon's demonstration Hobgoblin attacks the facility and brings down the ceiling because Landon tried to kill Hobgoblin earlier.

At end of the episode Spider-man goes seeking help of Dr. Mariah Crawford for a cure for his Neogenics mutation.

Jonah Jameson tries to make the Punisher a hero, but his editor explains that the Punisher is an outlaw who is hunted by several people. The people of New York blame all of Michael's crimes on Spider-Man.

Spider-Man's horrifying genetic mutation reaches its culmination as he transforms into the Man-Spider. Dr. Mariah Crawford summons Sergi Kravenoff, better known as Kraven The Hunter, to help her track down Spider-Man and cure him of his mutation with a newly developed antidote. Unfortunately, the Punisher seeks to destroy the monster. Later Crawford succeeds and gives Spider-Man the antidote and he turns back to normal.
