Guest-starring HAWKEYE! FRANKENSTEIN'S MONSTER crashes Halloween, and SPIDEY's in waaaaay over his head! Can the Wall-Crawler and the Ace Archer trick the brute, or will they be treated to their last Hallow's Eve?

The Circus is in town! Sounds fun, right? Not if it's the CIRCUS OF CRIME! When Peter Parker goes to take pictures of a night under the big-top for the Daily Bugle, Spider-Man gets blamed for robbing the audience! How does he escape this magic trick?

There's a stiff wind rustlin' its way through Manhattan, straight towards Spidey! Awfully hard for our resident Wall-Crawler to crawl said walls when Whirlwind's blowin' 'em down!

The good news: Aunt May has renovated the guest room in her house and rented it out to a boarder to earn some extra dough for the family. The bad news: She's rented it to DOCTOR OCTOPUS! Not only is Spider-Man's greatest foe using Peter Parker's house as a base of operations for his latest criminal enterprise and putting the moves on his favorite aunt, but now he's also hogging the bathroom all the time! Pete has to figure out some way to foil Doc Ock's latest scheme without tipping his secret identity... And breaking poor Aunt May's heart...

Venom is back ...but says he wants to bury the hatchet with Spider-Man. No, not in his head. In fact, in order to show Spidey how much he's reformed, he wants to become the web-spinner's official sidekick. But one night "on patrol" with a homicidal maniac as a partner has Spidey wanting to hang up the web-shooters himself!

They say the best defense is a good offense and Peter Parker doesn't find anyone more offensive than Midtown High's biggest bully, Flash Thompson! When Peter starts taking self-defense classes, he figures he can finally stand up to Flash without giving away his secret life as the Amazing Spider-Man. Too bad the Taskmaster has other plans for our webbed wonder...

Hold on, Spidey! You can't fight the Fantastic Four! You're all supposed to be on the same side! Not to mention the fact that you're waaaaay outnumbered! Wait...the FF kidnapped your school's new exchange student and are experimenting on him in the Baxter Building?!? Well, then, what are you waiting for, webhead?

"Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of—Spider-Man?!?" When our webbed wonder unwittingly aids a devious demi-goddess, his reward is a one way ticket to Asgard. But things start going south as soon as Spidey starts going Norse! Prepare for an epic tale that the bards will sing of for centuries to come (most likely with an occasional unnecessary "thee" or "thou" thrown in for good measure)!

A night at the museum becomes a complete cat-astrophe when a feline femme fatale procures a priceless piece of Native American art. But the fur really begins to fly when the beautiful Black Cat is caught in the perilous pounce of the Puma! Looks like we've got ourselves a cat fight, Spidey...and you're caught in the middle! (Watch out for hairballs!)

When Peter Parker's biology class goes on a field trip to a popular aquatic theme park, Pete can't wait for a day full of water, whales and walruses. But our hero never expected to find himself face-to-fin with an Atlantean villain determined to release the park's animal inhabitants back to the freedom of the ocean! Looks like Spidey is in DEEP trouble!

Spidey celebrates his 50th issue milestone in true super hero style with a surprise party unlike any other. Too bad the hosts of this little get together are some of the webbed wonder's fiercest foes! Will our hero be able to defeat the new Sinister Six in time to blow out his candles? Or will he just end up with a face full of cake and a body covered in bruises? Make a wish, Spidey... it may be your last!

Night is falling, and it's already been one LONG day for Peter Parker. Between Emma Frost coming into town, and a mysterious new supervillain, and his kind-of girlfriend Chat maybe being something other, or something more, than she's been pretending, Peter would love to call it a night. But when he finds out that Midtown High's newest teacher, Jack Russell, has been kidnapped along with a group of other people, it's up to Spider-Man to get Jack out of trouble, and away from the other hostages, and to do it FAST. Because Spider-Man has just received inside information that Jack Russell is a werewolf, and night is falling.

With his relationship with Chat in turmoil, and with Gwen Stacy oddly claiming she's his girlfriend, and with Aunt May suddenly needing $25,000, life is a little shaky for Peter Parker. Finding out that Tombstone and the Torino crime family have put a price on his head doesn't exactly cheer him up and, now, on top of everything else, the Blonde Phantom Detective Agency is looking to contact Spider-Man, but do they want to recruit him, or join in on the hunt?

The Torino crime family continues their hunt for Spider-Man, and now they're not alone, as the mysterious mutants known as the X-Men are in NYC, stalking down Spider-Man on their own. But...why are the X-Men after Spider-Man, and what can he do to stop them from taking away one of the things he holds dearest?

New York's police department has been known to hire bounty hunters, psychics and assorted spiritualists, but Peter Parker never thought he'd see the day when they sent out a call to hire...special agent Spider-Man? But is this offer too good to be true? Maybe even a trap? It would take a mind-reader to find out the truth, and luckily, Peter knows just such a person. Unluckily, that person is Emma Frost, the very person the police want Spider-Man to hunt down.

FINAL ISSUE! There's been a fight brewing for some time, and it all explodes in this issue when Emma Frost comes face-to-face with justice in the form of...Sophia "Chat" Sanduval, the girl who can talk to animals. But is she a match for the woman who will become the White Queen? And with Spider-Man hunted by an entire crime family, and with Bullseye on his way...what can one wall-crawler do to help his girlfriend Chat, when she can't even remember who he is?
