== Plot ==
In Horizon High School, Peter Parker and his friends are having a medical class lesson with their guest teacher: the Sorcerer Supreme Doctor Stephen Strange, who is teaching them about neurosurgery, while Peter recalls an early battle he and Doctor Strange had against Mysterio and Baron Mordo over a relic they were both hunting for. Meanwhile, the Guardians of the Galaxy's toddler member Groot, who is exploring New York for his own pleasure, overhears news about Spider-Man's recent victoriesnews include Spider-Man's victories in the "City of Heroes" arc and the "Family Business" arc, and decides to visit him and his teammates the Champions. Meanwhile, John Jameson, who is still infected by the Lunar Crystal due to its exposure to Gamma Radiationsince Man-Wolf's battle against the Hulk in "Halloween Moon", overhears news about his father J. Jonah Jameson having been killed by Red Goblinas depicted in previous episode, driving John enraged enough to transform into the Man-Wolf again.
After a morning at Horizon High, Mary Jane Watson is having a walk on streets while rejecting Meredith Midas's pleas to reconciliate with Flash Thompsonfollowing Mary Jane's falling out with Thompson in episodes On the Tiger’s Claws and City of Heroes, Part 3: American Cats, and dismissing her. After spending an idyllic time with Peter's aunt May at Helen Stacy's recently inaugurated chess club, Mary Jane encounters Groot, whom she had also met and befriended after Peter's team up with the Guardians of the Galaxy against Thanosas depicted in Guardians of the Galaxy: Mission Breakout! episodes "Back in the New York Groove" and "Drive My Carnage", and takes him in to the Champions' headquarters, at the same time Spider-Man presents Doctor Strange the work he did with the Parker Projects, and Wolverine trains Harry Lyman / White Wolf and Miles Morales / Kid Arachnid. Just then, the Triskelion is attacked by Man-Wolf and three infected officers, until Spider-Man stops them with help from Kamala Khan / Ms. MarvelKamala now sports a new suit made of Vibranium particles and Space Stone energy, and based on Carol Danvers's classic black leotard, which Kamala has been wearing following her fight against Cyba, as depicted in Princesses of Destiny Issue #3: "A Magnificent Change", forcing Man-Wolf to retreat while the infected officers are cured; one of the officers (a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent) reveals that Man-Wolf is planning to unleash an alien plague on Earth with a nuclear Kree bomb which S.H.I.E.L.D. has files of. As Spider-Man, Kid Arachnid, Ms. Marvel, and Groot go with Wolverine to stop Man-Wolf, Mary Jane / Tigra is visited by Cloak and Dagger, who had discovered another secret about the Parker Projects, which Doctor Strange and Amadeus Cho / Brawn offer to help oversee. Contacted by Black Widow, Peter and Mary Jane are warned of hostile forces (including Man-Wolf) seeking what Cloak and Dagger found, and advises them to be prepared.
Spider-Man and his group follow Man-Wolf's trail, while also dealing with Werewolf-mutated citizens and police officers. Groot soon finds evidences showing that the weapon Man-Wolf is searching for is based on the doomsday device which Ronan the Accuser once used to destroy his home-worldas depicted in the Guardians of the Galaxy Origins two-part short "Groot", with Spider-Man and Ms. Marvel acknowledging that the bomb will not only mutate everyone, but will also destroy the city. Miles and Wolverine also discover that Curt Connorslast seen in The Rise of Doc Ock, Part 2 is also working for Man-Wolf in preparing the bomb. Meanwhile, Tigra, Cloak, Dagger, Brawn and Doctor Strange find and discover the Siege Perilous, the mystical device which Peter's parents used to access the dimensions from where their projects originated, and (after Strange analyses it with magic) briefly envision silhouettes and hear voices from the alternate universes' heroes and protectors. Just then, they are ambushed by Mysterio, Syren, and Baron Mordo, who seek the Perilous for their own purposes. Cloak and Dagger are asked to hide the Perilous away, while Tigra, Strange and Brawn hold the three villains off. Tracking down Connors, they confront him over Man-Wolf's whereabouts, with Connors defending that he is merely working for Man-Wolf in exchange of resources for a cure for his Lizard condition, and reveals that Man-Wolf seeks the Siege Perilous to be used as a battery for his weapon. Just as Spider-Man's group is confronted by Man-Wolf, Strange teleports himself, Tigra, Brawn, and their opponents into Man-Wolf's hide-out, and (after Connors transforms into the Lizard again) a fight between the villains begins.
As Spider-Man and the others (joined in by Cloak and Dagger) keep the villains distracted, Groot uses of the Mysterio's virtual reality discs to create a fake Siege Perilous, which draws Man-Wolf's attention. Just as he obtains the fake Perilous, however, Man-Wolf envisions his father's past crimes (including when he agreed to cover the news about the Parkers' deaths by Norman Osborn's ordersas depicted in The Parker Errand, and when Jameson sought to exploit the Man-Wolf incident for publicity purposes), leaving Man-Wolf disillusioned, and allowing Groot to knock him out. Mysterio, Syren, Lizard (who believes the Perilous's power is the cure for his metahuman condition), and Mordo pursue Groot over the fake Perilous, but only to be defeated by Spider-Man and the heroes, with Doctor Strange teleporting the remains of the weapon into the Unknown Realms, and Groot explodes Mysterio's disc, causing the villains to envision their worst fears. As the villains are sent to prison in the Vault, Strange takes a powerless Mordo to be judged by the Masters of Mystic Arts, and entrusts Spider-Man and his teammates to look after the Perilous, and keep it safe from anyone who could abuse of its power. As the Champions welcome Groot to their team, and Black Widow and Wolverine voice approval of their performance, Peter and Mary Jane discuss about what should be done with the Perilous, until they discover the only room which was not accessed by Peter since he was introduced to the Triskelion: a large room with a teleportation device which uses the Perilous as a battery. The young couple begin to study the machine, as it will play a large role in theirs and their team's upcoming journeyas depicted in the "Legendary Universes" arc, starting with next episode.
