“Chaos Is--The Chameleon!”

In "Chaos Is--The Chameleon!", Spider-Man finally clears his name when D.A. Towers drops all charges, only to face a new threat as the Chameleon stages a public smear campaign, turning the crowd against him in Central Park. With Flash Thompson rallying the people and the city's support turning in his favor, even J. Jonah Jameson is left fuming—but someone in a Westchester lab is already plotting revenge. Written by Marv Wolfman and brought to life by Keith Pollard’s dynamic art and Mike Esposito’s inks, this 1978 classic features a cover by Keith Pollard and Jim Mooney.

D.A. Towers tells Spider-Man that all charges against him have been dropped and that he is no longer wanted by the police. But during a press conference, the Chameleon tries to discredit Spider-Man – to the general public, Spider-Man seems to be hitting an elderly woman. The plan is foiled, however, and Flash Thompson convinces the crowd in Central Park to give Spider-Man a proper recognition and celebration. But everyone isn't too happy about this: J. Jonah Jameson is furious... And a mysterious character in a lab in Westchester swears that he will kill Spider-Man.
