The Kingpin is furious at Spider-Man and sends the Shocker and the Rhino out to finish him off with the aid of another new invention of Alistair Smythe. Meanwhile, Eddie Brock, as the symbiote creature Venom, is busy playing cat and mouse with Spider-Man, intruding on Peter's private life and making it clear he knows the web-slinger's secret identity. To make matters worse, Peter soon realizes that the pumped-up Eddie as Venom is stronger than he is.
