"The Gathering of Five" and "The Final Chapter" are 1998 storylines published by Marvel Comics.
 The stories are interconnected with no issues being published between the last issue of "The Gathering of Five" and the first issue of "The Final Chapter," and the fictional Gathering of Five that was being prepared for during the first storyline actually taking place in the first issue of "The Final Chapter."
 Both storylines are crossovers between all of the Spider-Man titles being published at the time ("The Amazing Spider-Man", "", "The Spectacular Spider-Man", and "The Sensational Spider-Man").
 It also marked the cancellation of both "The Spectacular Spider-Man" and "The Sensational Spider-Man" while "rebranding" "The Amazing Spider-Man" and "Peter Parker: Spider-Man" by renumbering the issues to start again with a new "Issue One," as mandated by Editor-in-Chief Bob Harras.
"Spidey Meets the President!"
 is a backup feature in "The Amazing Spider-Man" #583, written by Zeb Wells, with art by Todd Nauck and Frank D'Armata.
