Peter Parker's roommate Boomerang takes him to the Bar With No Name only to get in a brawl with a mob of super villains!
Earlier, Adrian Toomes chases one of his henchmen, Dougie as
Vulture for stealing from him. Toomes picked him up from the car he was running in and got taken aback when the barbeque sauce on Dougie's t-shirt starts talking, only for
Black Ant to come out punching before
Taskmaster took him down with an electric net.
Peter Parker has been back on his rocker swinging as the
Amazing Spider-Man he is and luckily got back with his supermodel girlfriend Mary Jane Watson once again. Many of his regular villains have sort of disappeared but he still cannot stop thinking about his roommate Fred Myers, who is also a known super criminal named
Boomerang.
While they were making out in Peter's apartment, Fred was sneaking up on them like a creep and then introduces himself to MJ. Even though she thinks he is a decent guy and his other roommate Randy Robertson is all for giving Fred a second chance, Peter cannot bring himself to believe that a scumbag like that can change all of a sudden.
Previously,
Boomerang has robbed the Museum of Natural History and took something that even got Mayor Wilson Fisk very interested. However, the former
Kingpin never really admitted it to public and swept it under the rug for some unknown reason. Wearing his work costume, Fred takes Peter to the Bar with No Name to hang out for a night.

In actual, he took Pete there to win big at "Spider-Man Trivia Night" when he learned from Randy that he has been a photographer for Spidey and knows an awful lot about him. Although largely against the idea, Peter soon starts having a lot of fun answering trivia questions of his alter ego, surrounded by a room full of his worst enemies.
News of Fred being there reaches to Mayor Fisk and his assistant tries to reach out but it failed miserably because of
Boomerang being a jerk. To teach him a lesson for his defiance, an extremely infuriated Fisk offers a hefty prize on his head that got every other patron of the bar interested in breaking the sacred rule of the Bar with No Name.
Things turned out pretty heated there and Peter is forced to team-up with one of his former foe to get out of the mess. Not only did they put up a great fight but Fred even took a blast from
Scorcher to save his bunkmate. Fisk deices to go all out on them but the mysterious entity with a huge centipede then pays him a visit to stop him from doing that.
Odessa Drake took it upon her to restore the honor of
Thieves Guild as its leader and announce their rebirth by sending each members of their group to steal anything and everything valuable from superhero community and
Spider-Man is called in by Tony Stark when they swept clean entire Avengers Mansion and Hall of Armor in Stark Tower.
Their chaos has claimed
Captain America's Shield,
Cyclops' Visor, Eye of Agamotto from
Doctor Strange,
Ghost Rider's Hell Charger,
Punisher's armory of weapons,
Thor's hammer and even his Web-Shooters when he was in mid-air. Falling down with no hope of rescue, his old accomplice
Black Cat suddenly snatches him out of nowhere.
Although she saved Spidey mid-freefall, the world-class cat burglar did not waste time to take a jab at him soon as they land for being a jerk after the lab accident earlier (
Back to Basics). Now these two allies must set aside their differences once again to stop the uprising of
Thieves Guild before it is too late for Odessa Drake to pull off a grand heist.
