Peter Parker has a secret. Bitten by a radioactive spider, he gained the powers of a human arachnid - super-strength, adhesion to walls and incredible agility. Inspired by his uncle's tragic death, Peter became Spider-Man, New York City's hometown superhero. Only two other people know his secret identity - one is his best friend, confidante and girlfriend Mary Jane Watson. The other - ruthless businessman Norman Osborn, otherwise known as the Green Goblin.
In their first battle, Norman nearly killed Peter before his own apparent death. Now, the Goblin has returned, more powerful than ever before. And Osborn will use his knowledge of Peter's double identity to control the teenager - threatening the lives of Mary Jane and Peter's beloved Aunt May if he refuses to obey. Will Spider-Man be forced to serve his greatest enemy to protect his loved ones from harm?
Ultimate Spider-Man Vol. 2 also features the dramatic introductions of two classic foes to the Ultimate Spider-Man series. After an explosive laboratory accident grafted monstrous metal tentacles to his body, Otto Octavius became Doctor Octopus. Swearing vengeance on his enemies, Doc Ock takes his battle public, with Spider-Man caught in the crossfire. In the midst of this media frenzy, Kraven the Hunter - the most dangerous man alive - announces he's hunting the ultimate game: Spider-Man. Will Peter become Kraven's latest catch, all for the sake of boosting TV ratings?
