Synopsis for 1st story
Peter Parker and Johnny Storm share a sandwich on a rooftop before Spidey swings off to stop a mugging. As he does, he runs into Ant-Man. The woman who was being mugged is a newcomer to New York City named Rebecca London who asks out Spider-Man on a date and offers her business card. Ant-Man leads Spider-Man to the Mason's penthouse where he is introduced to The Tinkerer's brother Hophni Mason. Uatu Jackson helps Spider-Man try to hack a Stark Industries phone which is locked and fell out of the mugger's pocket. He traces the only previously hacked Stark phone to Chicago and Spider-Man goes there to investigate, forgetting his plans to see a movie with Johnny Storm. Meanwhile, Storm awaits outside Peter Parker's apartment building, where he meets Teresa Parker. When he arrives at the home of the hacker, he is hit in the chest by repulsors from Ironheart.

Synopsis for "Spider-Fight"
A small-time hood calling himself "Mindbender" appears in an alley mugging a family when Spider-Man drops in and saves them, revealing that the criminal is not a super-powered villain but a pretender who found a mask and some glue to give the appearance that he had a super-powered brain. As soon as the scene is safe, Spider-Man is shot at from a sniper rifle on an adjacent roof. Once he arrives at the top, he finds the Black Widow. They fight and she refuses to explain why she is shooting at and punching him. After temporarily blinding him with bright lights, she leaves and meets with S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Mintz and gives him a recording of the duo fighting to be used to develop a contingency plan to take him down if ever necessary.
