Jim Mooney & Frank Springer tag back in on the art team as things are looking grim!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Peter hasn\u2019t quite recovered his sight and is exhausted from all he\u2019s been through in this story, and his ankle\u2019s still messed up, and now he\u2019s gotta deal with a powerful foe who knows all his secrets. That\u2019s a rough night. Holly Gillis is convinced Hector is dead. She confesses her love to his unconscious form, drawing the attention of an increasingly deranged Carrion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

He convinces Holly to drag Hector out of the gym before she can be hurt (Or learn his secret), but that gives Carrion time to recover. He keeps babbling about all Peter stole from him, but none of it makes sense to our man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s a helluva page turn, only to have Carrion say it\u2019ll only hurt this time, but next time it will be fatal, and then disappear. What a cop out. But Peter, temporarily blinded again, lunges for Carrion as he fades out and Peter goes right out the window! Whoops! Hector picks this moment to wake up, turn into The White Tiger and rush into the room to\u2026 not save Pete at all. Peter falls in a bush. White Tiger and Holly come to see how he is, and he\u2019s not dead, but he\u2019s really out of it, so they take him to the campus infirmary. Flash & Sha Shan come to see him there, too. Peter is really confused, and for once, he can voice his concerns since everyone knows Carrion is after him, not Spider-Man, and he legit has no idea what\u2019s going on. He needs to go get his Spidey costume from where it was stashed, and on the way, literally bumps into a new face on the scene: Randy Vale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Well, that\u2019s not weird or anything. Vale ducks into the science building on campus, where we learn he\u2019s in league with Carrion! Whaaaaa? Carrion hasn\u2019t told him why they hate Peter Parker, only that they totally do. I hope they explain why this random dude is gooning for Carrion, this is weird. Betty, MJ, Harry & Liz are putting Pete\u2019s apartment back together for him since it was trashed. Which is super nice of them, but Pete doesn\u2019t want to go in there for fear of endangering them. Instead, he decides to walk around out in the open, hoping to draw Carrion out. We see White Tiger is tailing him, hoping to keep him out of trouble, but not for long, as a ridiculous looking goofball on glider wings swoops up behind him and zaps him with a ray gun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Carajo, indeed! The internet seems to indicate that\u2019s a sort of all-purpose curse that can be all sorts of English expletives in the right context. White Tiger sez it, like, twice a minute. Good thing the Comics Code didn\u2019t speak Spanish, I guess. Anyway, the dingus is called \u201cDarter,\u201d apparently, and he radios Carrion to let him know Peter is vulnerable now. But White Tiger\u2019s not out yet, and prepares a counterattack even as Carrion appears to Peter. He helpfully suggests Peter get into his Spidey gear while taunting him some more. Why didn\u2019t he just finish him the night before? Sssshhhhh. Pete\u2019s rested up and ready for combat this time, though. Carrion\u2019s taunts get more specific and less intimidating\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

That’s just hilarious. “Remember your failure to schedule a gym class!” Then Spidey and Carrion smash into the gym, and then Tiger and Darter also smash into the gym, and now we\u2019re ready for a brawl, but not before Carrion finally tells Spidey his beef:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
