Following his battle against Equinox with Yellowjacket and the Wasp, Spider-Man has stayed behind at the Baxter Building to clean up the damage. He is attacked by what appears to be the Fantastic Four and is knocked out of the building. He is grabbed by the Torch, and Spider-Man violently breaks loose. When Torch explains that he saved him, he also tells the Wall-Crawler that he wasn't attacked by his teammates. Johnny soon realizes who it might have been and rushes back to the Baxter Building, but the person who attacked Spider-Man is long gone. The Torch's suspicions are confirmed when he spots a wood carved stick.

The Torch explains to Spider-Man that recently Tigra and Red Wolf battled a man named Joshua Plague who recently took over as leader of the Rat Pack. Plague had obtained the stick that is now on the floor, in reality, an Indian Soul-Catcher. During the course of the battle Plague was revealed to be the Super-Skrull and in attempting to absorb Tigra's soul, he became the stick's victim instead. After the battle was over, Tigra turned it over to Reed Richards for study. Richards put it away for study. The story over, Spider-Man realizes that his battle with Equinox must have loosened the Soul-Catcher and allowed the Super Skrull to get free. Suddenly, Spider-Man's spider-sense goes off, alerting him of danger, they are then attacked by the Super Skrull.
