Synopsis for "Fantastic Voyage, Part 2 of 2"

Reprint of the 1st story from
Amazing Spider-Man #660

The Future Foundation continues the fight against the Sinister Six. Suddenly, Spider-Man and Ben realize that Doctor Octopus, Rhino, Sandman and Electro are robots and that Mysterio and Chameleon are the only ones present at the Caribbean.

Meanwhile, Doctor Octopus and the others infiltrate the Baxter Building. Doctor Octopus's plan involves using the Baxter Building's technology.

In the Caribbean, the dimensional rifts cause Sue, Ben and Reed to change powers. Spider-Man is dressed a suit that resembles that of Spider-Woman. Sue uses the tachyon pack Franklin and Valeria brought with them to close the rift, returning everyone to normal. With the trouble solved, the FF returns home.

At Tribeca, Carlie asks Peter where did he really go, and Peter answers that it's a secret. Carlie is outraged for thinking that Peter is lying to her, but suddenly reveals her tattoo, one of Spider-Man. Carlie says that she was going to get a Goblin tattoo but changed her mind at the last moment. Peter says that she has the sexiest tattoo he has ever seen, and they kiss.

Synopsis for "The Substitute, Part One"

Reprint of the 1st story from
Amazing Spider-Man #661

As the Future Foundation gets ready to depart for a new mission, Spider-Man sees Alex teaching the FF kids in a classroom. Remembering when he was a school teacher, Spider-Man asks Reed if he can teach the next class. However, Reed declines.

The FF then goes to their mission: defeat a giant gorilla attacking a bridge. Spider-Man and Ben fight the gorilla while Reed and Sue investigate the creature. Suddenly, Giant-Man appears and defeats the gorilla. Hank then asks Ben in helping him teach his students in the Avengers Academy. However, Ben declines, as he believes he is not fit for teaching. Spider-Man offers to be the substitute teacher, and Hank accepts.

Later, Peter and Carlie skate together. Peter tells Carlie that maybe he should go back to teaching, but he is not sure since he loves his job in Horizon. Carlie tells him that he will be a great teacher.

The next day, Spider-Man goes to the Avengers Academy and begins his class. The class goes badly since Spider-Man's superhero advice cannot apply to the students. Spider-Man suggests that they patrol the city and they accept.

As they patrol, the students take down a bunch of muggers attacking a woman. However, Spider-Man criticizes them for being too violent. Suddenly, Psycho-Man appears and Spider-Man discovers that he is spreading fear, hate and self-doubt among him and the students. Spider-Man also discovers that Psycho-Man infects the muggers with hate.

The students attack Psycho-Man, but he infects them with fear. Spider-Man overcomes the fear and destroys Psycho-Man's control box. However, Psycho-Man reveals that his powers come from him, not his control box. Spider-Man is then attacked by the students, still under Psycho-Man's control.

Synopsis for "Shiver: Part One"

Reprint of the 1st story from
Venom #1

Thirty miles north of the Arctic Circle in Northern Canada, Robertson - a United States Army communications specialist - mushes a team of sled-dogs towards a research facility owned by the Ararat Corporation; thinking to herself that she'd been a soldier for six years and volunteered for to be assigned to the Arctic to prove to herself and her fellow soldiers that she's more than just a pretty face. Activating the entrance's intercom, she introduces herself and remarks that she's come to return the movies her squad borrowed. Growing annoyed as she waits for a reply and noticing a storm coming, she reassures Ivan - the lead sled dog - that the Ararat researchers are just holding out to see if she brought alcohol. Abruptly, the intercom activates and a voice desperately calls out for help.

Robinson radios back to the radar station and is sarcastically told to get Jennifer Lopez, thinking to herself that she may as well do what she came to the Arctic to do as she fetches an automatic weapon from her sled. Entering the facility, she notices splotches of a black, viscous, tar-like substance sticking to the walls and the door. Ivan snarls and barks, startling her, and when she turns back from chastising him she's horrified to see the corpse of one of the researchers. On the verge of panicking, she screams when she spots a second corpse and runs to her sled to flee, but the voice from the PA calls out to her for help. Re-entering the facility, she calls out to the speaker to come out, and when it replies from the shadows she tells them to come to her instead. When no-one replies, Robinson makes her way to the mess-hall and is disgusted by the sight of multiple corpses, several of which are spattered with the tar-like substance. As she throws up, she hears a thump and follows the sound to a closed door. Throwing it open, Robinson finds a terrified man huddled in a ball, who asks her if "it" is gone before passing out. Wondering what he meant, Robinson drags the man out of the facility and to her sled. Ivan snarls and barks, making Robinson wonder what's got him spooked. As she departs the Ararat facility, a man in a black suit and sunglasses appears in the distance.

Arriving at the Christmastown radar station, fifty miles north of the Arctic Circle, Robinson scolds Ivan for his aggressive behavior and enters the facility to inform her CO, Colonel Michael Malone, what happened. Malone responds by asking if she brought back any movies, but upon noticing the civilian tells Jackson and Delacroix - two of the soldiers stationed there - to get him squared away. Pouring Robinson a drink, Malone tells her to start from the top. As Robinson concludes her report, Jackson tells Malone that the man is hypothermic and in shock. Malone asks Robinson if she's OK, and she remarks that the researchers had been torn apart and tossed around like toys. Malone dismisses the incident as a polar bear attack. Saunders remarks that a friend of his witnessed what a scared and angry polar bear was capable of while stationed in Greenland; and Malone ominously remarks that the Arctic is a dangerous place where thinks are sorted into predators and prey. Malone then asks Robinson if she's sure there were no other survivors, and who she was talking to on the intercom if the man she rescued was barricaded in the kitchen and half-frozen. Jackson interrupts the discussion as the man Robinson rescued abruptly begins to thrash spasmodically as though having a seizure.
