Jonah Jameson is at The Daily Bugle and sees an article about a scientist who can create artificial mutations in animals. Jameson realizes he can use this to get rid of Spider-Man. We learn that the person following Peter actually is private investigator Mac Gargan, hired by J. Jonah Jameson to figure out how he gets pictures of Spider-Man.

Both Gargan and Jameson visit the laboratory of Dr. After the transformation, the doctor outfits Mac with a scorpion outfit, complete with an incredibly deadly tail. As Spider-Man decides to revisit The Daily Bugle to investigate, as he leaves, he's attacked by Scorpion.

Scorpion and Spider-Man continue to trade blows when Spider-Man gets knocked down and hears Betty Brant scream. Jonah Jameson is the only person alive to know his true identity and realizes he must kill him as well.
