Kindred turned Peter's world upside down. Norman Osborn, the Green Goblin, having been "cleansed" of his sins by the Sin-Eater, revealed that Kindred is actually his son, Harry Osborn. Harry's reign of terror over Peter Parker ended when Norman and Mayor Wilson Fisk, A.K.A. the Kingpin, trapped Kindred in a Darkforce cage.

With Kindred put away, Peter was finally ready to put the Osborn family drama behind him and return to his normal life. But that normal life didn't involve that crazy new suit on the left! Anyway, Peter shares an apartment with "reformed villain" Fred Myers, A.K.A Boomerang, Randy Robertson, and their pet alien, Gog. Gog used to guard the pieces of the powerful Lifeline Tablet, which Boomerang and Spider-Man are endeavoring to keep out of Kingpin's hands. But Kingpin has plans of his own...
