Publisher’s description

Peter has dinner with Aunt May and Dr. Octopus, who explains how he barely escaped with his life following a nuclear reactor explosion. As if things weren’t strange enough, the spectral form of Hammerhead returns to haunt the dinner goers! What is the source of this strange apparition? And is Doc Ock as reformed a villain as he seems?
