Synopsis[]

The final page of this issue opens in the South Bronx in an abandoned tenement. In the tenement, a man looks at a wall plastered with news clippings of Spider-Man. The man talks to himself about how a dark shroud blankets the city but it pales in comparison to the shroud Spider-Man pulled on him. He vows to do the same "very... VERY... SOON!" to Spider-Man as he slams his fist into his open palm and a black mass flows over his hands.
