Highlights

• All the action is skipped, and suddenly, Spider-Man is showing Mysterio that his briefcase was full of fake money
• See oddities
• Mysterio tells Spider-Man he was working for the Headmen
• Back in the Headmen's lab, Chondu the Mystic, also a member of the team, but an uncontrollable one, has broken free of where they had him, and he's wigging out about something
• Spider-Man crashes the party, and webs up Chondu, but Ruby Thursday keeps the battle going
• Spidey makes short order of Ruby and Arthur, but Jerry sends the headless She-Clone into the fray
• The head of the She-Clone realizes that she has no body, and begins to panic
• Meanwhile Spidey gets caught, and the scientists ponder who they should use for their experiments between he and She-Hulk
• Elsewhere, Louise Mason catches up with Blake Tower, and informs him Stilt-Man is on the hunt for him
• Back in the lab, the Headmen have put Chondu's head on the body of She-Hulk, and this freaks him out
• Nagan informs him he couldn't use Spider-Man's body because of his mutagenic raditation
• Chondu doesn't care, and demands he find a way, as he picks up the hero's body
• Spidey isn't unconscious though, and punches Chondu's head clean off
• The Headmen try to escape in a battle vehicle, but She-Hulk rips it to shreds with her bare hands

Low Points

• It's not a very well written story
• It's never explained where the real She-Hulk came from all of a sudden, and we only get a brief three panel explanation about the She-Clone, literally right at the end of the story

Oddities

• The story takes a one-page sidebar for She-Hulk to tell jokes, and when it cuts back, Spider-Man has already defeated Mysterio, and taken his briefcase
