WEB OF SPIDER-MAN 41

Descripción

At the Bedford Towers condo owned by Mary Jane and her husband Peter Parker, Mary Jane returns home with an old friend Lorraine Mandell, a fellow model. As Lorraine takes off her coat, Mary Jane quickly takes it from her to hang it up, so that her friend doesn’t see Peter’s Spider-Man costumes. When Lorainne asks where Peter is, Mary Jane quips that he must be hanging out somewhere.

At that moment, Spider-Man is at the New Jersey compound of the Students of Love, a cult that recently recruited Betty Brant as one of their members. Fearing that she had been brainwashed, Spider-Man had come to rescue her only for Betty to raise the alarm. The wall-crawler soon has a mob of cult followers charging into the room armed with baseball bats. The web-slinger tires to get away but he is swarmed by the sheer numbers. Forced to use violence, Spider-Man fights off his attackers. Seeing Betty running out of the room, Spider-Man follows after her. He tries to talk sense into Betty, but she refuses to go with him, saying this is the best thing that has ever happened to her. Seeing how brainwashed she was, Spider-Man tries to carry her out, but she fights back. Something that catches the hero off guard because Betty doesn’t set off his spider-sense. As the other cultists come after them, Spider-Man webs up her arms and legs and runs for it. Around the corner, Spider-Man is confronted by one of the cultists armed with a flamethrower. While dodging the flames, Spider-Man is distracted enough to allow Betty to rip off his mask. Fearing Betty could recognize him and tell the cultists about his true identity,
