- Red-Headed Stranger [Part 3]: Deconstructing Peter · 22 pages
The Chameleon has replaced Peter Parker so that he can get close to Mayor J. Jonah Jameson and sell the secret location of New York's new top secret underground security bunker to Arab terrorists. As an interesting aside, he manages to live Peter's life and manage his personal relationships better than Peter himself. Spider-Man manages to crawl out of the tub of acid in which he was immersed by Chameleon.
Publisher’s description
The Chameleon is poised to unleash unspeakable horror on New York City and Spider-Man is nowhere to be found, so the only person who can stop him is...Mary Jane Watson?!
