On Sale: MARVEL TRADES LIST SENSATIONAL SPIDER-MAN #28-34:
Writer: Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa
SENSATIONAL SPIDER-MAN #28: "My Science Teacher Is Spider-Man!!" Jordan Harrison, a student in Peter Parker's biology class, deals with the ramifications of Spider-Man's unmasking on his life, including his part in a showdown between Spidey and Doctor Octopus.
SENSATIONAL SPIDER-MAN #29: "The Deadly Foes of Peter Parker Part 1" The Chameleon recruits the Molten Man to team up with him against Spider-Man. Meanwhile, Spider-Man finds himself face-to-face with Scarecrow and Will 'O the Wisp. After taking care of the two villains, Peter calls Mary Jane, who is about to take the stage as Lady MacBeth, and shares with her his unsettled feeling about her safety now that his secret is out. Just as she is about to take the stage, Swarm stares down at her from the rafters. The Black Cat responds to news of Spider Man's revelation of his secret identity with jealousy that now everybody knows his secret. Peter turns to Madame Web for guidance about his strange feelings, but she cannot give a clear reading for him; instead, she can only communicate a vague sense of oncoming doom. At Liz Allan's home, she opens the door to find the Molten Man looming over her.
SENSATIONAL SPIDER-MAN #30: "The Deadly Foes of Peter Parker Part 2" Spider-Man takes care of a surprise attack by Electro in an art museum. Swarm surprises Mary Jane at her theater rehearsal, but a courageous stage hand helps stop his attack. The Chameleon, lost in reflection over his long and deadly past with Spider-Man, resolves to destroy Peter's whole family for revenge. Peter asks the Black Cat to help him watch his back over the days and weeks ahead. Liz calls Peter and tells him that the Molten Man has kidnapped her son and holding him for ransom: the ransom is a face-to-face with Spider-Man. Meanwhile, the Chameleon disguises himself as Peter and insinuates himself into the Avengers Tower with Aunt May.
SENSATIONAL SPIDER-MAN #31: "The Deadly Foes of Peter Parker Part 3" Peter shows up at Liz Allan's home, where she can't help but give him hell for the lifetime of deception and endangerment he put her through. From the other room, the Molten Man attacks Spider-Man, while Scarecrow and Will 'o the Wisp are there as well, menacing Liz and her child. The Black Cat makes the scene and helps Spider-Man beat back their foes. The Molten Man, a reluctant partner to the Chameleon, tells Spider-Man that the Chameleon is currently stalking his Aunt May. While Spider-Man races back to the Avengers Tower to save his aunt, May is actually wise to the Chameleon's ruse and is poisoning his cookies.
SENSATIONAL SPIDER-MAN #32: "The Husband or the Spider?" Mary Jane has dark nightmares about how her life is changing in irrevocable ways, and they are all keyed off of major events and people in the life of Spider-Man. In her nightmare, she's forced to pick a door and from the door she chooses a terrible spider-creature leaps out to menace her. She takes a walk from the hotel where Peter has taken her and Aunt May after his break with Tony Stark and ponders about how she got cut from the cast of MacBeth because of security fears. Later, she meets Sue Storm, who talks to her about needing to get tougher and stronger to honor her commitment to Peter. Walking back home, she works through the many facets of her relationship even more. Shockingly, when she arrives back at the hotel, Peter is lying in his Aunt May's arms, his body a bloody, mangled mess.
SENSATIONAL SPIDER-MAN #33: "Wounds" Mary Jane and Aunt May help Peter heal and recuperate after the vicious beating he received at the hands of the Rhino. Though there is tension between the two as to who should take the lead in administering to Peter, eventually the pair find a common bond through sharing Peter's pain with him. May reminisces about the time when Peter was young and he broke his arm, which was a particularly momentous occasion for May, Ben and Peter. The Rhino finds out that the guy who hired him - and was supposed to pay him for - the gig to beat up Spider-Man is now in jail, and at the same time, after finding out the Rhino was part of a plan put in play by the Chameleon, the Black Cat suits up to seek vengeance on behalf of her "Spider". As time goes on, Peter regains his strength and normalcy returns, but May is in a constant state of reflection over the pain she's helped him overcome through his life.
SENSATIONAL SPIDER-MAN #34: "Nothing Can Stop the Rhino" The Black Cat meets with May and MJ at the hotel hideout and tells them she's going to track down the Rhino for Peter. May doesn't necessarily like Felicia; MJ simply chalks her up as crazy. Black Cat reconnoiters with Puma who has tracked Rhino down to Battery Park. On the way to take on the Rhino, she reflects on her relationship with Spider-Man over the years and the lengths to which she has gone to appeal to him, as Peter Parker and Spider-Man. She makes it to the park and stops the Rhino before he seriously hurts some passersby who are heckling him in his drunken stupor. Instead of fisticuffs, Felecia actually talks the Rhino into going home and laying low instead of continuing his rampage.
