Writer: David Michelinie
Artist: Alex Saviuk

Spider-Man creates new web shooters made out of high end plastic so he won’t trip metal detectors at airports. He also adds a warning light for when his fluid gets low. Doc Ock steals a biological weapon from the military and plans to spray it all over the city in an effort to kill Spider-Man. He gives the go ahead to the helicopter pilot and then Spider-Man shows up and Ock goes catatonic again. Ock is the only one who knows the code to abort the plan. Spider-Man figures the only way to snap Ock out of his trance is to lose to his arms. It works and then Ock calls off the attack and leaves Spider-Man alive so he has to live with his humiliation.
