Guest-starring Matt Murdock, attorney without fear! Spider-Man needs a strong defense after breaking into Ryker’s Island to investigate recent escapes. Why are super-powered villains breaking out of prison with relative ease? Imprisoned behind bars, this is one undercover assignment Peter Parker can’t walk away from!
