“The List”

Story: Howard Mackie/John Byrne
Art: Ray Kryssing

A man with an eye-patch, Jonathan Rickman, is close to discovering something about someone. An intruder sets fire to an entire building, Spidey saves many lives including Rickman’s.

Rickman drops a notebook as Spidey gives him to the paramedics. It has the name Peter Parker in it.

Peter investigates the burnt out building and discovers a Tectonic Research Labs emblem. The same labs where Doc Ock, and Spidey, accidentally got their powers.

Peter visits Rickman in hospital he tells him that one by one the survivors from that blast at Tectonics Labs have been disappearing. Meanwhile out in the hall Dr Octopus is confronted by a man from the shadows and the last we see of Ock is his glasses smashing on the floor.
