Spider-Man #3/2006

In "Last Stand Part 1," Spider-Man finds himself cornered not just by Mac Gargan’s brutal Scorpion form, but by a chilling proposition that stretches back through decades of heroism and villainy. With Uncle Ben’s memory flickering in the shadows and the weight of past conflicts echoing in every threat, Peter must confront a dangerous game where the stakes aren’t just his life—but the life of Aunt May.

In "The Last Stand Part 2," Spider-Man and the Black Cat make a desperate move to secure Aunt May’s safety, breaking the Green Goblin out of prison only to find themselves ambushed by the villain’s full-scale alliance of classic rogues. With the city under siege and the line between ally and enemy blurred, Spider-Man must fight through a storm of familiar foes—each with their own grudges and agendas—while trying to keep his loved ones out of harm’s way.
