J. Jonah Jameson went to his office in the Flatiron Building when the visit was over. He sat down and looked at a picture of his son in an astronaut suit.

"I will get revenge for you."

"Mr. Jameson," Betty buzzed in, "Mr. Gargan is here to see you."

"Send him in."

Mac Gargan entered Jameson's office and closed the door.

"Hello, Mr. Jameson."

"Hey Mac. It looks like you don't have to keep looking for my son anymore. They found him. He's in a coma in the hospital right now."

"That's awful."

"Tell me about it. However, there is one job that you could still do."

"What kind of job?"

J. Jonah Jameson reached into his coat pocket and pulled out a jar. Within the jar was a black, sticky organism.

"Do you know what this is?"

"It looks familiar."

"This is part of that creature from space that Spider-Man fought a few years ago. From another person's research, I know that it can make its host want to do bad things. It may also make the host stronger. I want you to break into Peter Parker's house. He is Spider-Man. Look for his costume and put this on there. Then, take pictures of him doing bad things. That will take down his reputation. And when it seems like his life can't be any worse, we will reveal his identity to the world. Will you do it?"

"I will."

Mac Gargan took the jar from Jameson's hands. He exited the office and walked to the elevator. When he was on the bottom floor, he exited the building and entered his car. He drove all the way to his apartment. Once inside, he put on his Scorpion suit. Then, he looked at the jar.

"Stronger, huh? It may make me more bad, but it's a small price to pay."

He took the lid off of the jar and stuck his hand in it. The symbiote expanded as it wrapped around his hand. It was spreading all over his suit. He now had a black Scorpion suit. There was now a white spider symbol on his torso. The symbiote made it appear that he had large, white eyes. Scorpion extended his tongue.

"Scorpion has some venom now!"
