Synopsis for "The Power of Positive Thinking"
Spider-Man fought Vulture before three more showed up and the Spider-Army intervened and helped defeat them before revealing that the Vultures were slaves to Verna of the Inheritors. As Spider-Man, Old Man Spider, and Spider-Ham were distracted, the Vultures shot them with knives coated with paralytic, however they still managed to move and shoot them with webs. Then, the three entered a portal to Earth-13, where they met other members of the Spider-Army.

Synopsis for "The Luck of the Parkers"
At New York City, in 2014, Peter Parker laid in a hospital bed due to a severe allergic reaction from his spider-bite with a side effect in his arm. Uncle Ben had also not died due to not being present in their house when it was robbed. Six-Armed Spider-Man and Spider-Man Noir observed Peter and the latter Spider-Man suggested putting the bedridden Peter "out of his misery", much to the former's protest. Six-Armed Spider-Man broke into the hospital to look for chemicals while Spider-Man Noir stayed in position and saw his bedridden counterpart mutate into a spider-like creature before breaking in and taking him to the rooftop.
The two Spider-Men fought the mutated Peter before Six-Armed Spider-Man injected a serum into him that caused him to molt and lose consciousness. As the two Spider-Men hid, Six-Armed Spider-Man revealed that the serum was "sort of a gamble" and that a similar serum gave him his extra arms, rather than taking away his powers. Then, the two realized that there was nothing there to attract Karn, but them, so they left through portals.
