Blue foil cover by Mark Bagley and Randy Emberlin. Shock follows shock as Peter Parker learns the painful truth about his parents! Inside the Chameleon's New Jersey hideaway, the faceless villain reveals that Richard and Mary Parker are artificial simulacrums (aka life model decoys). The web-slinger is stunned. But there's no time for sorrow as the wall-crawler must stop his "parents" from revealing his secret identity! Once the Chameleon morphs Richard into a killing machine the battle lines are drawn: the Vulture, the Chameleon, and the Richard LMD vs. the Amazing Spider-Man! As the fight progresses, could a mother's love -- even the love from an artificial mom -- propel her web-spinning son to victory? A heartbreaking ending for all.
