Meanwhile, Peter is in a much better mood after hearing Aunt May is receiving visitors like Anna Watson, and he can finally concentrate more on his studies. When he gets to school he finds that the other students are against him. He ignored them on his first day and started to worry more on Aunt May's condition.

He swings around through the city until he finally sees him. He chases him unto a rooftop, but he suddenly disappears from there. Then comes Kraven who admits he was the one that impersonated him and sprays Spider-Man with a jungle scent that blocks his spider-sense. Kraven ducks into the building and Spidey follows him in which gets him into booby traps that were set up by Kraven himself.

After Spider-Man webs up Kraven for the police, Peter takes some picture as the they take him away. Kraven actually admits to the police that he was the one impersonated Spider-Man.
