Synopsis for "Spider-Man and Spider-Woman!"
Spider-Man is rushing to the Acme & Dingo Boots store. He fails to see Crusher Creel, The Absorbing Man, lurking in an alleyway. Overhead, Jessica Drew, Spider-Woman, is searching for Creel, who has recently escaped from jail. A flashback sequence relates how this was accomplished.
Peter and Mary Jane are shopping for a new pair of boots. Mary Jane is indecisive but, after an hour of indecision, tries on a pair of Dingo-Western boots. Peter's Spidey-Sense tingles and he makes up an excuse to leave. Mary Jane is unimpressed. Outside, as Spider-Man, Peter sees Spider-Woman. Thinking that she is the menace he fires his web. She berates him for ruining her surveillance. Crusher Creel witnesses this exchange. He then muses on his misfortunes and expresses a desire to relocate to South America... after he has defeated the two heroes.
Spider-Man and Spider-Woman battle Crusher Creel on a construction site. He flees and trips over Mary Jane, who is emerging from the Acme & Dingo shoe store with a new purchase. The Heroes distract Creel and then pursue him into a subway station, where they manage to defeat him. Later, Mary Jane tells Peter about her adventure. She is no longer mad a Peter because she got to meet Spider-Man.
