"Death is no more as the clone conspiracy rocks the wall-crawler's world! And if things weren't bad enough for the Amazing Spider-Man, now Doctor Octopus has returned from the grave! How is he back? And what does he have to do with the Jackal?"--Back cover.

"The Osborn identity! ... the return of none other than Norman Osborn! Silver Sable is back, too--as Peter Parker encounters yet another old face back from the dead!

And he'll soon be a media sensation in this All-new, All-different New York. One thing's the same, though: non-stop action! Like when Earth's Mightiest Heroes all fall, and Miles stands alone against a villain with the power to destroy the universe. Or when the Black Cat tries to get her claws in this new Spider-Man. Or when a new mutant threatens to grab the spotlight! And don't forget Miles' toughest foe yet: his grandmother! But his grades might be the ultimate challenge--so maybe a study session (date?) with Ms. Marvel will help? Welcome to the neighborhood, Spider-Man--hope it's friendly!"--Back cover.

Spider-Man is already overwhelmed from the chaosof Secret Empire--but now, facing one of his greatest enemies who's back from the grave, more powerful than ever before and following orders from Captain America himself, does Spider-Man stand a chance? Peter must use the full force of his company, every asset at his disposal, to stop Ock and Hydra--but will it be enough?"--Back cover.

"Parker Industries is more successful than ever, with new offices in Shanghai, London and San Francisco. Peter Parker is racking up the frequent-flyer miles--with his 'bodyguard' Spider-Man in tow! But success breeds enemies, like the astrological Zodiac who have widened their scope to threaten the entire Earth. Peter isn't neglecting New York--but his new HQ is the former Baxter Building, and the Human Torch is going to have something to say about that! And while Spider-Man has extended his reach, so have his foes. Someone in Africa is masquerading as a member of the Goblin family, and it 's up to everyone's favorite web-crawler to investigate"--Back cover.
