I do not think that there can ever be enough books about anything and I say that knowing that some of them are going to be about Pilates.The more knowledge the better seems like a solid rule of thumb, even though I have watched enough science fiction films to accept that humanity’s unchecked pursuit of learning will end with robots taking over the world.-Sarah Vowell

Parker Industries has invented a wearable tech called Webware that allows the user to wear anywhere and have unlimited data and clear reception.  The interstellar group called Zodiac has let loose one of its sects, Leo, and it has stolen their secure servers which were linked into every private Webware account across the globe. He captures the Lion and his accomplices just in time to make it to his press conference where he tells the world that he won't be charging cheap labor and he will be capping his salary at a junior executive level.  Also that Spider-Man is his bodyguard.   Meanwhile, back in San Francisco, Prowler is dressed up as Spider-Man and hunting the streets.

At a wedding, Peter tells his employee, Sajani who is his date that anything they do would be for the good of mankind, though she has plans of her own. But before Peter goes he has a word with Sanjai about what she's working on and who she's been working with, i.e., Black Cat and the Ghost, and sabotaging projects to make the company fit her vision for it.  Her robot has an image of Doc Ock in it which means that nothing she does is any good.  Then Zodiac attacks and Prowler jumps out in his Spidey suit but he doesn't have Spidey's skills or warning system and gets the shit kicked out of him so Pete gives them what they want hoping that they can get it back before the encryption has been hacked.  So Prowler and Spider-Man go underwater which is where it is.
They fight the Zodiacs and manage to get Peter's Webware but the Zodiacs take the technology and send it all over their bases. This makes Spider and Fury happy as they own know where the bases are located.

Meanwhile, Silk fights a Zodiac and takes the Parker tech he has on him and brings it to her Mistress the Black Cat. Spider-Woman who is pregnant and talking to Captain Marvel while unloading groceries is attacked by five bad guys, weird ones, and outs them down and calls the police. Miles Morales the very young Spider-Man took down a tough guy and left him for the police. These criminals were sent underground where they were encased in a special slime that keeps them from moving. Who is in control?

 Osbourne is busy selling arms to African dealers from a market he is creating. The Human Torch gets upset when Peter buys the family's building and burns through it until Peter explains why he did it. Now Spider is supposed to be a part. of a.multi team mission to take. down Zodiac but instead, he goes to help his Aunt May with a reluctant Mockingbird who works for S.H.I.E.L.D.  these green goblins are attacking the village where she is putting up solar panels. Spider and Mockingbird get them and save the village.

The Zodiac make their endgame and attack the London Museum. Will Spidey get them all and find out what it is they're really after?  This was a great comic filled with lots of great characters including extra Spider-People.  This has a fast-paced storyline that is exciting to read about.  I can't wait to read the next volume in this series.  I give it five stars out of five stars.
