SPIDER-MAN 4
The LIZARD breaks out killing researchers in the process. The DAILY BUGLE receives numerous reports of a giant LIZARD roaming the city and J. JONAH JAMESON tells PETER he must capture the first photo of the creature. KRAVEN reads the LIZARD stories in the newspapers and formulates a plan to capture it. MR. TOOMES researches the OSCORP lab files to find out what went wrong in the CONNORS experiment but discovers the secret files of NORMAN OSBORN. MR. TOOMES reads about the PERFORMANCE ENHANCER SERUM which created the GREEN GOBLIN and he learns SPIDER-MAN’s secret identity.
SPIDER-MAN patrols the night eventually finding the LIZARD and chasing it throughout the city and ending up in the sewer system where they battle for the first time. The LIZARD escapes but SPIDER-MAN has captured the photo JAMESON wanted. At the Bugle PETER submits the photo and JAMESON gives him an invitation for the OSCORP charity event. JAMESON tells PETER that he was personally requested by the new C.E.O MR. TOOMES to cover the event for the Bugle.
That same night SPIDER-MAN is searching the city for the LIZARD but encounters KRAVEN THE HUNTER and a battle ensues. SPIDER-MAN escapes but KRAVEN has obtained SPIDER-MAN’s scent. The next day PETER invites GWEN STACY to the charity event but she declines. Later that night PETER arrives at the OSCORP charity event with AUNT MAY as his date. MR. TOOMES introduces himself to PETER and AUNT MAY. PETER’S spider-sense goes off and he scans the room for potential danger. PETER spots KRAVEN and assumes he is what triggered his spider-sense. MR. TOOMES engages in conversation with AUNT MAY and takes her away as PETER begins to snap photos of the event. KRAVEN captures SPIDER-MAN’s scent in the air and looks around the room to pin point it. PETER becomes nervous and looks for AUNT MAY which he finds still conversing with MR. TOOMES. PETER grabs AUNT MAY and they leave the event.
Outside the banquet hall PETER and AUNT MAY run into GWEN STACY. PETER introduces AUNT MAY to GWEN and AUNT MAY. KRAVEN is still tracking down the scent and exits the banquet hall, but PETER’s spider-sense alerts him. PETER hails a taxi and invites GWEN to AUNT MAY’s house for some dinner and coffee. GWEN accepts and the three of them leave just as KRAVEN is approaching. At the house GWEN and AUNT MAY are conversing. GWEN mentions the disappearance of DR. CONNORS and PETER begins to question her about it. KRAVEN arrives at AUNT MAY’s apartment building still tracing SPIDER-MAN’s scent.
PETER’s spider-sense goes off and he rushes to the window. PETER witnesses LIZARD going into an alley way and rushes out the house making an excuse for his departure. SPIDER-MAN follows LIZARD’s trail and KRAVEN follows them both. SPIDER-MAN finally corners the LIZARD, KRAVEN appears, and an intense three way battle begins. The fight reaches the water front of the city and hits the climax when KRAVEN fatally wounds the LIZARD and it falls into the ocean to its apparent death. SPIDER-MAN defeats KRAVEN and leaves him for the authorities to take into custody. LIZARD’s body is never recovered.
The next day PETER PARKER is speaking with DR. CONNORS’ wife and telling her he will use all his resources to find her husband. At the OSCORP building MR. TOOMES explains to his assistant MAC GARGAN his plans for capturing SPIDER-MAN so he may replicate his abilities. At the home of AUNT MAY the television reports KRAVEN’s arrest. PETER walks into the house and is surprised to see GWEN STACY sitting with AUNT MAY. GWEN invites PETER out on a date and he accepts.
