In surprising fashion the Kingpin's bizarre plan works! Richard Fisk absorbs the web-slingers life force and regains consciousness! So what's left of the amazing one? He's become dead (spider) man walking! However the wall-crawler musters enough strength to reach Dr. Curt Connors' laboratory; and once inside he receives a temporary energy boost! Armed with a device to recover his life force, the Spectacular Spider-Man sets off to find the Big Apple crime boss and his son! At the Brooklyn Navy Yard, the web-slinger rendezvous with the Kingpin of Crime! Who will survive their donnybrook on the docks? A powerful ending! Cameo appearances by Vanessa Fisk and Glory Grant. Flashback cameos by Captain America, the Falcon, and Red Skull. (Notes: The Kingpin returns in Amazing Spider-Man 197.
