| Synopsis
| - Spider-Man happens upon a robbery of the Guggenheim Museum, and when trying to stop the thieves, he finds that they are more than the run of the mill crooks when it turns out that they are experienced in martial arts. During the fight, one of the men tells Spider-Man that their employer is Shang-Chi before they are all killed by some sort of termination device, but not before he learns that the next target is the power plant at the 59th Street Bridge. In reality, these men are hired by Shang-Chi's father, Fu Manchu, who hopes that Spider-Man will go after his foe.
- To further this end, Manchu sends men dressed in Spider-Man outfits, purporting to be hired by Spider-Man to attack an old man, prompting them in a battle with Shang-Chi.Taking the wounded old man back to Blackjack and Nayland Smith, they all hear how Fu Manchu has apparently hired Spider-Man to destroy the power plant on 59th Street Bridge. Naturally enough, both heroes arrive on the scene and get into a fight between each other due to the misdirections of Fu Manchu. After a length battle, Shang Chi and Spider-Man soon realize that something doesn't add up and decide to call a truce and see who is really behind pitting them against each other.
The two heroes learn of Fu Manchu's true plot: To install a mind control device on the radio tower at the top of the Empire State Building that is being replaced following a recent battle between Daredevil and the Mandrill. Spider-Man, and Shang-Chi arrive to stop Fu Manchu and his henchmen from completing this task. With the help of Blackjack Tarr and Nayland Smith, they manage to defeat Manchu's forces, however Fu Manchu himself manages to escape. After the battle, Spider-Man and the others congratulate each other on a job well done, but it's cut short when Spider-Man has to depart when he hears police sirens.
