Summary: Following a bruising dust-up with Spider-Man, the Green Goblin is imprisoned at Ryker's Island. A short while later, Aunt May is kidnapped and hidden away by a mysterious villain. When Spidey goes to the Owl for a lead on May's whereabouts, Owl uses the opportunity to send Spider-Man on a fool's errand against Electro and the Vulture.

Spidey gets help from the Black Cat and has a brief encounter with the Avengers (Captain America, Hawkeye, Hank Pym, Quicksilver, The Scarlet Witch and Tony Stark).

Continuity: The story continues in "Venomous" (2004/09/01) and "The Last Stand" (2005/03/01), where May's kidnapper is revealed to be Mac Gargan.
