Forced to stay on the planet, Peter takes up residence at a clinic owned by Dr. Naoko Yamada-Jones, who lives alone with her son Shane. As thanks for saving her son from a rogue robot, she agreed to let him stay rent-free for the first 2 weeks until he could find a job. Now nearly 3 weeks later he still doesn't have a job, but hopes to make enough money by taking pictures of Spiderman for the Daily Byte, a human newspaper similar to the Daily Bugle back on earth. Overhearing the argument between Peter & his mom about the rent, Shane runs out of the house & Naoko goes out to look for him. Before she finds him, however, a strange green mass of tentacles captures her & drags her into the sewers. As soon as Peter finds out she was kidnapped, he heads out to find her as Spiderman. That's when he meets counter earth's version of the Green Goblin; and once again encounters Venom & Carnage, who reveal the real reason for sneaking onboard Solaris 1.
