Venom Bomb

First Aired: July 21st, 2013

Synopsis: Spider-Man and his team are fighting the Green Goblin after he was found by SHIELD satellites. They're able to defeat him but are suspicious of how easy it was. Spider-Man visits Harry Osborn to let him know, but all Harry cares about is returning his father to normal since he's sick. Spidey next heads to the helicarrier, where he finds out from Nick Fury that the Goblin will be held on the moon. Spidey protests that they should be trying to cure him, but Fury doesn't listen. For the moment, the Goblin is still on the helicarrier, however, and he spits out a vial containing a symbiote which merges with another symbiote in SHIELD's custody, before the two start infecting SHIELD agents. Spider-Man, meanwhile, tries talking the imprisoned Doctor Octopus into curing Norman, but has to leave when symbiotes attack, leading to Spider-Man fighting a symbiote-possessed Nick Fury and Agent Coulson. The Goblin is freed by symbiotes and goes to Doctor Octopus for revenge, but Spider-Man arrives and saves Doctor Octopus using the Iron Spider armour.

His computer searching finds Taskmaster's base, and he heads off - but Spider-Man asks to come with him as he's impressed by Deadpool. While they're flying to the base in Deadpool's jet they're attacked by Taskmaster's thugs, using jetpacks. Deadpool evacuates Spider-Man and himself from the jet and they fight the thugs as they fall to the ground, but for the sake of humour Deadpool sabotages Spider-Man's web-parachute.

Swarm

First Aired: June 9th, 2013

Synopsis: Spider-Man is fighting Juggernaut when Iron Man shows up to help. Spider-Man is confident that his spider-tracer can keep track of Juggernaut and helps Iron Man stop a building from collapsing, but when trying to use his spider-tracer finds that it's faulty. Iron Man gives him a piece of advice - technology is less important than the mind using it. Spider-Man later heads to Stark Industries to try and apologise, and finds some machines going crazy. The culprit turns out to be a man named Michael Tan, who has developed technology to control machines as though they're extensions of his body. Iron Man isn't impressed by the danger he's put people in and fires Michael on the spot, but Michael cranks the controls on his device up in protest, which somehow causes him to disappear. Iron Man heads to his lab and starts looking into reconstituting him, and while he's doing that, Spider-Man decides that he should upgrade his spider-tracer using Tony's technology. He briefly notices some strange energy going into it, but decides it's nothing important.
