Brand New Day, Part 3: Blood Ties
Spider-Man raced across town, but arrived too late to save the members of the Karnelli mob family from the Devil's Breath poison. But the poison is keyed only to kill blood relatives of Bruno Karnelli. But when he figures out that Negative's plan was to wipe out the Karnelli bloodline, he has to race across town where the wives and children of the mobsters think they're just attending the circus. J. Jonah Jameson has finally recovered from his heart attack... but how will he react to the news that while he was incapacitated, his wife sold their entire stake in the paper to Dexter Bennett?
