Description
Doc Ock saves Spidey's life but is himself killed by Kaine (PPSSM #221, '95). Meanwhile, the Scarlet Spider has visions that lead him to the Jackal's upstate lair where he is attacked and left for dead in the snow; an event that Spider-Man somehow senses (WoSM #122, '95). Kaine stands over the unconscious Scarlet Spider. Scrier appears, confronts Kaine, and disappears again. Soon after, Spider-Man arrives and helps Scarlet. Jack, a diminutive figure in a Jackal costume, taunts and leads them to a hidden lab. The giant Guardian, his body scarred and distorted, attacks, but collapses and dies. Jack reveals his own scarred face. Just then, the Jackal emerges from a cellular regeneration tank; his body genetically restructured to peak efficiency. He tells the Spiders that the Jackal who died in Shea Stadium (ASM #149, 75) was a clone and reveals that Jack and the Guardian are flawed Peter Parker clones, fated to die from cellular degeneration. As Kaine eavesdrops, Jackal tells Peter and Ben that they are both clones and that the real Peter is preserved in a cryogenic chamber. He then opens another chamber to free a woman he claims is the real Gwen Stacy.'
