Amity Park
"I AM THE BOX GHOST!"
Danny could only roll his eyes as he chased the Box Ghost (Danny Phantom) over Amity Park skies "Yeah yeah, let's just get this over with"
"Foolish welp!" shouted the Box Ghost seriously as he lowered himself down to a delivery truck "For you shall be the only thing over with when I end you! BEWARE!"
The truck's back opened as a wave of boxes flew out towards Danny. Danny went intangible as the boxes went through him as they collided into a light pole, feathers fluttering out.
"Feathers?" questioned the Box Ghost as he looked at the truck, seeing the word 'pillow' on the side "I mean, NOW you shall suffocate at the hands of my soft pillow driven destruction!"
"...Did you just hear yourself?" remarked Danny.
Not wasting another second, Danny pulled out the Fenton thermos and sucked the Box Ghost in.
"AAAHH!" shouted the Box Ghost as Danny placed the lid back on the thermos.
"And the Box Ghost is captured... again"
Sam and Tucker drove up on their electric scooters as they stopped at Danny.
"Good job dude" said Tucker as he pulled out his PDA "That's the last Ghost Sighting of the night"
"Glad we're back to the routine after yesterday" said Sam.
"I know" said Danny as he smiled as he shifted back to his human form "The place was amazing. Too bad that creep squad showed up"
"And one of them was an alien chicken" said Tucker "That's just weird"
"Yeah" Sam started sarcastically "It's not like we haven't seen weird things like Ghost dogs and Ghost knights"
"I never said we didn't face weird things" said Tucker "Just saying"
"I'm just glad you guys are okay" said Danny as he pulled out his Teleporter "Hang on guys"
Sam and Tucker placed one hand on Danny's shoulder as they held their scooters with their free hands as Danny pressed the white button.
As the three teleported away, a figured phased out of the ground where they were.
"So" said Skulker (Danny Phantom) "It's true. The Ghost Boy has joined up with other warriors"
Skulker pulled out a Amity Park Newspaper as he read the front cover.
[Amity Park's own Danny Phantom joins hands with Famed Heroes to form Heroic All-Stars]
"If these children are comparable to the likes of that welp, then they'll make just as fair game as he"
Skulker tore the Newspaper as the pieces blew away into the wind
.
Heroic All-Star HQ.
Supergirl was typing into the Mission Room computer as she read over every sub-routine, emergency protocol, room code clearance, voice command phrase codes, and everything else that needed memorized.
The Teleport Pad activated as Kim and Ron appeared.
"That is so cool" said Ron. "We can just press a button and zip in and out as we please"
"Pwease" squeaked Rufus.
"Hey guys" Supergirl waved to the two.
"Hey Kara" said Kim as she waved back.
"Kara?" asked Ron.
"That's her name Ron" said Kim.
"Or did you assume that Supergirl was an actual Kryptonian name?" teased Supergirl.
"No no no" said Ron "Just never asked. I didn't know we were sharing secret identities"
"I don't have a secret identity Ron" Kim pointed out.
"Come to think of it" said Supergirl "Only myself, Jake and Spider-Man have alter egos"
"Well Ben and Danny's were made known to the public" said Kim "And Jenny and Inuyasha just go with their actual identities"
"Speaking of" started Ron "Did Spidey ever tell anyone his SI"
"SI?" questioned the two girls.
"You know, Secret Identity. SI"
"Wes Eye" squeaked Rufus.
"Well no" said Supergirl "But Spider-Man's free to keep his identity from us as he pleased. Heck, the core members of the Justice League didn't share identities till the Thanagarian Invasion"
"And theirs are?" asked Ron.
"Nice try" said Supergirl playfully.
"Worth a shot" said Ron.
The monitor above the computer activated as Wade appeared onscreen.
"Hey guys" said Wade.
"Hey Wade" said Kim "Surprised you didn't set up shop here"
"Yeah there's like hundreds of rooms here" said Ron. "You've could of had like your own little headquarters"
"Interesting thought, but I prefer my room" said Wade as he sipped a soda "Fits my territory"
"By any chance, did you find any leads on Inuyasha's shard?" asked Supergirl.
"The shard itself, no" said Wade as he started typing on his end "But I was able to pull up some history on the Jewel itself" a sketch of the complete Shikon no Tama and a painting of a priestess warrior appeared on monitor "Over 500 years ago during Japan's Feudal Era, a priestess named Midoriko protected the people of Japan from various demons with her immense spiritual power until she wound up facing a legion of demons. After seven days and seven nights of battle, the souls of both Midoriko and the demons were merged and condensed into a marble size jewel, the Shikon no Tama, or the Jewel of Four Souls"
"So this gem is made of monster souls? Gross" said Ron.
"You said the Jewel was made over 500 years ago?" asked Supergirl "How come something that powerful hasn't been brought to light since then"
"They say that after the creation of the Jewel, it was passed to protector from protector to safe keep it from both demons and wicked humans. It's last protector, a priestess named Kikyo, was slain by a demon that she shortly sealed away. Per her passing, she requested that the Jewel be burned with her body to remove the Jewel from the world"
"Then how did it end up here?" asked Supergirl "And how did it end up shattered? And how does Inuyasha fit into all this?"
"I guess you'll have to ask Inuyasha" said Kim.
"Speaking of" added Wade "I've been researching and I can't find any info on Inuyasha. No sightings or signs of battle. No rogue's gallery. Not even things related to his family"
"That's... concerning" said Kim as she turned to Supergirl "I know you said we have to respect each others choice of privacy, but I don't think the team will work in the long run if we have secrets like this ignored"
"... Let's ask Inuyasha first before we jump the gun" said Supergirl. "Maybe we should also invite this Kagome girl over to get her side of the story"
"Inuyasha did say she could sense the Jewel Shard" said Kim "So it makes sense to get her input"
"Can you set that up Wade?" Supergirl asked.
"I guess" said Wade as he raised an eyebrow "But can't you just ask Inuyasha personally? I gave him an All-Star Kimmunicator"
"And I saw him looking at it in confusion" said Kim.
"Oh... Yeah I'll set it up with Ms. Higurashi" said Wade.
.
Bellwood.
Ben sat as his usual table at Mr. Smoothie as he looked at his phone.
On a muted video was Will Harangue (Ben 10) giving an input on his personal opinion of 'the menace Ben 10' joining with several other heroes. Ben watched half interested until the part of 'Supergirl setting a bad example by standing by a public menace such as Ben Tennyson'. Now Ben was just watching as he made a mental impression of Harangue staying stupid things in Ben's voice.
The screen suddenly switched to a call as the phone vibrated. Ben answered without wasting a second.
"What's up Rook?" asked Ben.
"Ben. We've recently received info on Spider-Man engaging two criminals in New York. Mr. Long joined in just as I called you"
"Got it. Thanks partner" said Ben as he turned off his phone and dialed his Omnitrix.
.
New York.
Spider-Man side stepped as the Rhino (Spectacular Spider-Man/Marvel) charged towards him.
"Come on Rhino" said Spider-Man as Rhino turned back and swatted at Spider-Man, with Spider-Man jumping over the hand and landing on Rhino's back "Isn't this getting old"
Rhino's only response was to move backwards as he slammed his back into a building as he squished Spider-Man, Spider-Man grunting in pain as he slipped onto the ground.
"Maybe" said Rhino as he cracked his knuckles "But you're not"
Fire swarmed over Rhino's body as he covered his face from the flames. Jake over head as he breathed fire at Rhino.
"You think a little fire will scare me gecko?!" shouted Rhino as he endured the flames.
"This gecko is gonna put y'all on the endangered species list" replied Jake.
A pillar of sand suddenly erupted underneath Jake as he was sent higher up. Jake flew out of the sand's path as the sand retreated back to the ground and morphed into the Sandman (Spectacular Spider-Man/Marvel).
"And you should stay extinct Dragon boy" said Sandman as his fists shifted into sand mallets.
"Looks like everyone's bringing their wise cracks today" said Spider-Man as he lifted himself off the ground and faced the two.
"Here's mine" said Rhino as he shot a fist at Spider-Man. Spider-Man quickly dodged the fist as he kicked Rhino in the face and slung back to a telephone pole before jumping over the Rhino and webbing his face, Spider-Man landing on Jake's back.
"You lousy" started Rhino as he ripped the web off his face.
"Leave it to me O'Hirn" said Sandman as he shot multiple sand fists at the dragon as he maneuvered around them.
"Thanks for the help Jake" said Spider-Man as he ducked under a sand fist.
"Not a problem Spidey" said Jake as he barreled roll between three different fists "We New York boys gotta stick together"
Jake flew in an 'O' as he flew back at Sandman and shot several fire blasts at Sandman. The bursts of fire scattered bits and pieces of Sandman, but he simply reformed and just continued attacking the two.
"Okay Spidey, you're smart" said Jake as he went back on the retreat "And these are your villains. So what's your usual play at stopping these fools"
"I usually use Rhino's strength against him" analyzed Spider-Man as he stuck to Jake's back "As for Sandman, water."
"Bro, I'm the American Dragon. Not the American Seahorse" said Jake.
"LOOK OUT!"
SMACK!
A car smacked into the two as they fell to the ground. While Spider-Man could sense the car coming, Jake couldn't. Before the two hit the ground, a green slime like substance formed underneath and caught the pair.
"What the-" started Jake.
"Relax guys" said a squeaky voice as Goop's head appeared under his Anti-Gravity Projector "It's me"
"Oh good" said a grossed out Spider-Man "I'm used to slimy aliens, but not in snot flavored"
Goop morphed into his humanoid form.
"So what's up guys?" asked Goop.
"Oh just Sandman and Rhino trying to rob a bank" said Spider-Man "I'd tell them to try something else for a change, but their usual alternatives is usually trying to kill me or trying to kill me with my other villains"
The ground shook as Rhino charged over as a wave a sand followed behind him.
"Okay, let's see how Sandy likes Water Hazard" said Goop as he slammed the Omnitrix icon. When the green light faded, standing where Goop was was Eye Guy.
"... 'I' saw this coming" said Eye Guy.
"I'm guessing this is usual for you" said Spider-Man.
"Sadly" said Eye Guy.
"You gotta get that thing checked yo" said Jake before taking a battle stance.
Making the best of his current form, Eye Guy shot several beams out of his eyes as they hit Rhino, sending him back as he broke through Sandman, who kept coming.
"Let's turn up the heat y'all" said Jake as he blew a stronger breath of fire at Sandman. Sandman paused as the fire hit him, several parts of his body hardening.
"Did that work?" asked Spider-Man as Jake halted his attack.
Their answer came as Sandman simply broke off the harden parts of his form as new sand filled its place.
"I guess not" said Eye Guy as he charged up his eyes.
Hoping to overtax Sandman, Jake and Eye Guy kept up their barrage of attacks. Jake's fire hardening several parts, but Sandman just kept breaking off and reforming those areas. And Eye Guy's eye blasts weren't doing any betters.
"Heh" laughed Sandman "Looks like I got you kids hot under the collar"
Jake took in deep breathes as the Omnitrix beeped before Eye Guy turned back to Ben.
"Okay" said Ben "This isn't looking good"
"Looks good from here" said Sandman as he morphed into a larger form as he towered over the three "Any last words you mooks?"
"Vacuum cleaner?" said Spider-Man.
"W-what?!" stuttered Sandman.
Suddenly a loud sucking noise came on as Sandman's body was suddenly breaking apart as it was sucked up behind him.
"Wh-what the heck is this?! NOOOO!"
Sandman's wails were drowned out as the last of him was sucked up into a vacuum device on Jenny's left hand as the right hand was morphed into a giant bag that was struggling to break free.
"Hey guys" said Jenny.
"Jen! Good timing girl!" cheered Jake.
"Did you just suck Sandman up?" asked a bewildered Spider-Man "With a vacuum cleaner?!"
"Yep" replied Jenny as she smiled.
"What was going through your mother's head when she made you?" asked Spider-Man.
"You should see my eight sisters" said Jenny.
"Alright, what is this?!"
The four turned and saw Rhino stomp over to them.
"First I get hit by some over eyed eye guy. Then I come back and see Marko sucked up by some metal broad" Rhino started punching his fist into his hand "Well let's see how well I tenderize robot girls"
Danny suddenly phased out of the ground in front of Rhino.
"You'll have to get by me first ugly" stated Danny.
"And what are you going to do string bean?" mocked Rhino.
Danny smugly smiled before phasing into Rhino. Rhino gasped and struggled for a second before suddenly slamming his fist into his face.
"Why are you hitting yourself!" Why are you hitting yourself! You're still hitting yourself!" came Danny's voice out of Rhino as he kept hitting himself in the face. After a minute, Danny flew out of Rhino's body as Rhino wobbled before falling to the ground face first. Danny hovered over him as his fellow All-Stars walked up.
"Nice going dude" said Ben as he slapped Danny's back "I enjoyed every minute of that"
"Can we get these guys to jail?" asked Jenny as Sandman struggled inside the giant bag "This guy won't quit"
"Sure thing" said Spider-Man.
"And after that, let's get smoothies. My treat" said Ben.
From a rooftop up above, Skulker was watching.
"They are impressive prey" said Skulker "I'll start my hunt with these five. And you'll be great bait"
Skulker turned to a cage floating behind him, a giant green dog banging against the cage's bar.
.
Bellwood.
After dropping Sandman and Rhino off at prison, Danny piloted the Specter Speeder towards Bellwood as the five conversed.
"So how's fighting out in the open Jake?" asked Ben.
"Weird yo" said Jake "I mean don't get me wrong. I like being on a team. But I'm just not used to trying to keep my tasks secret, And it's weird I gotta call myself a mutant is all"
"At least you weren't called public enemy number one" added Danny "And you weren't given a stupid nickname"
"Oh that's right" said Jenny "The people just knew you as Inviso Bill"
"And I'm glad that's behind me" said Danny.
"Well I can relate" said Spider-Man "Even when working with Captain American and the rest of the Avengers, the Daily Bugle still calls me a menace"
"You think that's bad?" said Ben "When people found out my secret identity, Will Harangue put a hate sticker on me bigger than a car door"
"I've had my share of critics too" said Jenny "There was even some guys in Skyway Patrol that wanted me shut down because they saw me as a 'hindrance'"
"Wow" said Danny "We got a lot in common"
"Well we are all kinds of awesome" said Ben "Too bad the others couldn't show up. Where were they?"
Jenny answered. "Supergirl and Kim went to Japan to set up things with Inuyasha"
"Well they'll call if they need us" said Jake.
Spider-Man suddenly tensed up.
"Oh no"
Suddenly a loud 'THUMP' hit the top of the vehicle as the Specter Speeder started shaking back and forth.
"What now?!" shouted Ben as he tried to stand while not falling over.
Danny turned into his ghost form as he phased outside.
"Alright" said Danny "Who's messing with my ride?"
Biting into the Specter Speeder's upper compartment was the giant form of the ghost dog, Cujo (Danny Phantom).
"Ghost Dog?!" shouted Danny.
Cujo growled as he leapt at Danny as the two started spiraling down to the ground.
Jake looked out and saw his teammate.
"A giant dog's got Danny!" shouted Jake.
"We've got bigger problems!" said Spider-Man as he worked the Speeder's controls "That dog tore apart several of the ships key parts! The ships gonna crash! Abandon ship!"
Jake turned into his Dragon form as he grabbed Ben and burst through the ship's window. Jenny grabbed Spider-Man and followed after. Jenny and Jake flew out and turned back as they saw the ship collide into Billions Tower.
"At least it went out doing some good" said Ben.
"Come on" said Spider-Man "We gotta find Danny"
.
Bellwood City Park.
Danny and Cujo landed in the park as civilians scattered away from the two. Danny quickly flew over the dog as the canine took several swipes at Danny.
"Come on Ghost Dog! You and I are cool. Out of the hundreds of ghosts that know me, your like one of the five nice ones that don't wanna kill me"
Cujo just growled as it leapt at Danny, who could only dodge.
"I'm afraid its pointless welp"
Danny turned and saw Skulker standing behind him.
"Skulker?!" shouted Danny.
"The one and only" said Skulker "And it's due time I mounted your head"
"What did you do to Ghost Dog?!" demanded Danny.
"The animal? I've simply laid out a trap" said Skulker "Lure it with food and fill it with aggressive stimulant drugs. I'm afraid whatever bond you share with this creature is futile in it's current state"
Cujo growled as it slowly advanced on Danny.
"Well sorry to disappoint you Skulker, but I'm not alone" said Danny.
"Oh, I know"
Not a second later, Jake, Ben, Jenny, and Spider-Man landed.
"Okay. Ghost Dogs and ghost robots" said Ben as he pressed down on the Omnitrix and became Blitzwolfer "Not the weirdest thing I've seen today"
Spider-Man shot several webs at Skulker and Cujo as the two phased through the webs and attacked the two.
Skulker descended on Jenny and Jake as the three engaged in aerial combat.
"Eat this!" shouted Jenny as she fired a missile at Skulker, who simply phased through it.
"Futile" said Skulker smugly.
"Then try this" said Jake as he flew towards Skulker.
"It's pointless you overgrown lizard" said Skulker as he went intangible. But as Jake slammed his tail against him, Skulker was sent flying backwards. Skulker his eyes as he felt the dent on his torso.
"I'm a magical overgrown lizard" said Jake with a smile.
"I will skin you and place your pelt over my mantle!" shouted Skulker.
"Oh not this shtick again" said Jake as he rolled his eyes.
Down below, Blitzwolfer and Cujo were wrestling on the ground as the two canine beings snarled and snapped at each other.
"Here's a little music for you puppy" said Blitzwolfer as his snout split apart as the wolf alien let loose a sonic howl as the ghost dog was slammed into a tree. Spider-man acted quickly and shot a barrage of webs against the dog as the webbing stuck Cujo to the tree.
"I'd say make like a tree and leave, but I'm afraid you'd gotta stick around" said Spider-Man.
Cujo then phased out of the webs and charged Spider-Man.
"Of course. Ghost Dog" said Spider-Man as he pinched the brim of his nose through the mask.
Spider-Man leapt out of the way at the last second as Blitzwolfer tackled Cujo from the side.
"Let's try this again" said Spider-Man.
"Wait!" said Danny as he flew up next to Spider-Man "Ghost Dog isn't acting like himself. Skulker drugged him"
"Is that right?" asked Spider-Man "Then how do you suppose we stop him?"
"If we can knock Ghost Dog out, then I can suck him up in the Fenton Thermos and keep him contained until the drug works through his system"
"And how do you suppose we knock him out?" asked Spider-Man.
"See if Ben's got an alien that can help. Maybe the fairy alien that puts people to sleep. And I'll keep Ghost Dog busy"
Danny flew back into the fray as Cujo had Blitzwolfer pinned and was snarling above him.
"Good doggie" said Blitzwolfer nervously as Ectoplasmic drool hit his face.
"Hey Ghost Dog!"
Cujo and Blitzwolfer turned as they saw Danny floating above them.
"Who wants a ball! Who wants a ball!" Danny formed an Ecto-Barrier around himself "Let's get the ball!" Danny then flew away at great speeds as the retreating form resembled a giant ball flying away. Acting on instinct, Cujo chased after the ball as he left Blitzwolfer behind as he turned back to Ben.
"Okay" said Ben as he tried to wipe the green slobber off as Spider-Man landed next to him "I think I owe you and Jake an apology for catching you as Goop. This is gross!"
"Never mind that" said Spider-Man "Think you got something to knock that dog out so Danny can catch it?"
"Hmm" pondered Ben before remembering a past experience "I think I got an idea. But I hope your aims good"
"Better than yours" said Spider-Man.
.
With Danny, the Ghost Barrier was kept flying away as Cujo pursued. But the dog kept gaining speed and eventually the dog leapt up and pounced on the barrier, crashing down into the ground as the barrier evaporated and Danny ended up pinned under Cujo. Cujo growled violently at the lost of the 'ball'.
"Come on Ghost Dog" begged Danny "Don't you remember all the fun we've had?"
Cujo could only growl as the dog opened it's mouth.
SPLAT.
A web hit Cujo on the neck. Cujo turned back to see Spider-Man up a tree as the Web-Swinger mockingly waved at Cujo. Cujo charged at Spider-Man before suddenly twitching and halting in it's track as it collided into the tree. Spider-Man leapt out and landed on the ground. Seeing the dog motionless, he walked over to it as Danny flew above him.
"Is Ghost Dog okay?" asked Danny.
"He's fine" said Spider-Man as he squatted down a ripped the web off his neck, showing Grey Matter on the dog's neck.
"A Hephaestan Neuro Grip" said Grey Matter "Useful for subduing all manner of prey. Which apparently includes Spectral Canines"
Grey Matter flashed back into Ben.
"Nice work team" said Ben.
"We're not done yet" said Spider-Man.
"Yeah" said Danny "There's still one ghost left"
.
Jenny and Jake kept flying as they avoided the barrage of missile Skulker fired at them.
"I tire of this you vermin" said Skulker as he popped out the green blade from his left wrist "Let's finish this"
Skulker fired off towards Jenny as she extended Shiva blades and started clashing with Skulker. Jake flew closer but Skulker fired an Ecto-Net at Jake as the Dragon's restrained form crashed to the ground.
"With your magical protector gone, there's nothing saving you from being melted down and made into spare parts for my armor"
"Wanna bet hot head?!" declared Jenny. Jenny quickly retracted Shiva blades before flying over Skulker and shifting her hands into bug-zappers and piercing the back of Skulker's armor. Skulker and Jenny yelled out in pain as electricity surged through them both Jenny's arms and Skulker exploded. Skulker's form fell to the ground as Jenny spiraled backwards before Jake shot up and caught her before she got too far.
"You alright J-Girl?" asked Jake.
"Nothing a quick touch up can't fix" said Jenny as she retracted her destroyed bug-zapper arms and extended her normal arms.
Danny flew up to the two.
"Where's Skulker?" asked Danny.
"He's down there" said Jenny as the three flew down below. They landed and saw that Skulker's body was motionless as many parts were either smoking or sparking out of damage areas"
"Is he... dead?" asked Jenny.
"I don't think ghosts can die" said Jake.
"Relax guys" said Danny as he put his arm into Skulker's body and pulled out a little green ghost.
"This isn't over child!" yelled Skulker's real body "I am the Skulker! I'm Ghost World's greatest hunter"
"...Well this is underwhelming" said Jenny.
"Where's Fido?" asked Jake to Danny.
"Spidey and Ben have him in the Thermos" said Danny. "Come on, let's head back to base"
.
Heroic All-Stars HQ.
After arriving back at HQ, Danny sent Skulker found a spare Thermos and sucked Skulker in.
"Think I should send him to the Ghost Zone?" asked Danny to Ben and Jake as the three sat in the common area watching TV.
"Grandpa said that the Plumbers are going to keep Ghost Prisoners contained at Plumber HQ using Anti-Ectonurite Tech" said Ben "Hopefully he won't come back with that suit"
Spider-Man and Jenny walked in as Spider-Man held the Thermos.
"Well after an hour of moving violently, the Thermos stopped" said Spider-Man as he handed the Thermos to Danny. "Think your dog is okay now?"
"Well let's hope so" said Danny as everyone took a fighting stance as Danny opened the Thermos. Instead of a giant dog, Cujo was now in his smaller, puppy form. The puppy looked around for a few seconds before seeing Danny and giving a delightful bark, wagging his tail before jumping on Danny and licking his face.
"Okay. Okay Ghost Dog" said Danny as the dog licked his face "I missed you too"
"Aw" cooed Jenny as she bent down and scratched the back of Cujo's ears "Is this wittle guy that big mean dog?"
"Yeah" said Danny as he patted Cujo's head. "I like him a lot better when he's like this though"
"Just hope he stays like this" said Spider-Man as he looked at Cujo "So how do you know this dog anyways?"
"Believe it or not, he was looking for a chew toy at Axion Labs" said Danny.
"Of course it was" said Ben.
"So what do we do with the dog now?" asked Jake.
"I'll take him back to the Ghost Zone once I know he's all good" said Danny "In the mean time, I'll keep an eye on him"
"Too bad we couldn't get those after mission smoothies" said Ben.
"Worry not Ben" said Rook as he walked into the room "I am sure there will be many more missions for beverages. While I have you all here, I wish to congratulate you all on all the good work you did today"
"Well three villains beaten in one day is a swell thing" said Spider-Man "Well I got to get going guys"
"Hey" spoke up Jake "I've been meaning to ask. Are we ever going to know who's under the mask?"
"..."
"You don't have to say if you don't want to" said Jake.
"I don't know" said Ben "I kinda want to know who Spider-Man is without the mask"
"...Not yet" said Spider-Man "Maybe eventually, but not now"
No more was said as Spider-Man walked off, his teammates staying quiet as they watched him off.
.
Florida.
Far away from the public in a private condo, a lone figure walked down the stairs as he sat at a table and opened up a Newspaper. Before he could take a bite of his toast, the man stopped as his eyes lingered on the Headline.
[Heroic All-Stars Announced to the World]
The man read those words as he eyed the only hero on the cover wearing a mask. He then violently ripped the paper up before standing up.
"So Spider-Man has begun playing with the big boys now, has he" said Norman Osborn (Spectacular Spider-Man/Marvel).
He then looked over to ta mirror, the Green Goblin (Spectacular Spider-Man/Marvel) staring back at him with a twisted smile.
"Well then we'll have to have him introduce us to his new friends. Right Osborn?!" said Green Goblin in the reflection, the green ghoul cackling madly. "It's been too long!"
