Spider-Man and the mutant agents get into an argument, and Blob escapes. Iceman and Firestar go after Blob, and Spidey decides not to get involved in mutant stuff since it's none of his business. However, later, he realizes that ''three'' heroes would be better at defeating Blob than two, so he shows up to help the two agents, despite them not wanting his assistance. The three of them defeat and cripple Blob, and Firestar tells Iceman they should team up with Spidey, but Iceman refuses and returns to the Triskelion, a top secret government base. Firestar asks Spider-Man out on a date, but he rejects as he is already dating somebody. The next day, mutant protestors gather outside the Ravencroft Institute, where the Blob is being held, saying that the way Spider-Man, Iceman, and Firestar dealt with Blob was extremely brutal. One of the protestors, a man named John Sublime, with the power of mind control, controls a few of the guards to let out all the inmates, and a huge riot breaks out. Iceman and Firestar arrive, and so does Spider-Man. The three heroes try to fight Sublime but he controls Firestar to attack the two other heroes. Spider-Man and Iceman decide to team up and round up the escaped inmates, trying to avoid Firestar's attacks. Spidey gets an idea, and so Iceman shoots a blast of ice at Firestar, which she melts, but the water splashes onto her, and puts out her fire, causing her to fall to the ground. Spidey catches her, and sees she is unconscious. Sublime tries to awaken Firestar but can't. As he struggles to wake her up, he is frozen by Iceman. The authorities arrive and place a special helmet on Sublime that prevents him from using his telepathic powers. They lock up Sublime in a special mutant prison known as Crossmore Prison. Firestar wakes up, and Spidey tells her that they took care of it. Iceman tells Spidey that they should team up again, and Spidey agrees.

Plot: When mutant terrorist Blob attacks Oscorp, Spider-Man rushes to the scene, but sees that two mutant government agents have already been deployed into the area: Iceman, former member of the X-Men, and Firestar, Iceman's new fire-powered girlfriend. Spider-Man and the mutant agents get into an argument, and Blob escapes. Iceman and Firestar go after Blob, and Spidey decides not to get involved in mutant stuff since it's none of his business. However, later, he realizes that three heroes would be better at defeating Blob than two, so he shows up to help the two agents, despite them not wanting his assistance. The three of them defeat and cripple Blob, and Firestar tells Iceman they should team up with Spidey, but Iceman refuses and returns to the Triskelion, a top secret government base. Firestar asks Spider-Man out on a date, but he rejects as he is already dating somebody. The next day, mutant protestors gather outside the Ravencroft Institute, where the Blob is being held, saying that the way Spider-Man, Iceman, and Firestar dealt with Blob was extremely brutal. One of the protestors, a man named John Sublime, with the power of mind control, controls a few of the guards to let out all the inmates, and a huge riot breaks out. Iceman and Firestar arrive, and so does Spider-Man. The three heroes try to fight Sublime but he controls Firestar to attack the two other heroes. Spider-Man and Iceman decide to team up and round up the escaped inmates, trying to avoid Firestar's attacks. Spidey gets an idea, and so Iceman shoots a blast of ice at Firestar, which she melts, but the water splashes onto her, and puts out her fire, causing her to fall to the ground. Spidey catches her, and sees she is unconscious. Sublime tries to awaken Firestar but can't. As he struggles to wake her up, he is frozen by Iceman. The authorities arrive and place a special helmet on Sublime that prevents him from using his telepathic powers. They lock up Sublime in a special mutant prison known as Crossmore Prison. Firestar wakes up, and Spidey tells her that they took care of it. Iceman tells Spidey that they should team up again, and Spidey agrees.
