Subject Matter
superhero
Spider-Man [Peter Parker]; Mary Jane Watson (origin); Philip Watson; Madeline Watson; Gayle Watson; Frank Brown; Timothy Byrnes; Hobgoblin [Roderick Kingsley] (villain); Rose (villain); Aunt May Parker (cameo flashback); Anna Watson (cameo flashback); Harry Osborn (cameo flashback); Liz Osborn (cameo flashback)
As Peter struggles with the fact that Mary Jane knows he is Spider-Man, she opens up for the first time and tells him her family's history full of heartbreak, abuse and abandonment. Mr. Fantastic tries to communicate telepathically with Spider-Man's alien costume but has no success. Hobgoblin demands a cut of crime operations all over the city to sweeten his new business deal with the Rose. He then sets his sights on Harry Osborn. Learning that the Hobgoblin is still alive, Peter dons his classic red and blue costume as Spider-Man and prepares to face his old foe.
