Synopsis: "Something Can Stop The Juggernaut, Part 1”
Peter Parker is on his way to dinner with Carlie when he gets an overwhelming spider-sense attack. The cause seems obvious. A red light in the sky that is shooting across the Manhattan sky-line. Realizing how shaky his relationship with Carlie is at this point, Peter is loathe to make his customary excuses and disappear. However, Carlie makes those excuses for him. Mistaking his Spidey senses for a cluster headache she sends Pete on his way, and promises to reschedule their dinner date.
Reflecting on how generally awesome Carlie is, Peter quickly changes into his Spider-Man costume and swings across the city. The red light seems to be a meteor of some kind, that Spidey watches impact in Central Park. Our hero follows the trail to devastation to discover that this was no meteor, but instead a broken and unconscious Juggernaut, who is lying prone before him. Who or what has the power to stop the Juggernaut?
Spider-Man reflects on his previous encounters with the Juggernaut, and how none of them have gone particularly well for him. Hearing the police approach, Spidey swings up into a tree and changes back into Peter Parker. He returns with his press pass and camera. The NYPD's superhero clean-up crew, Code Blue, are moving the unconscious Juggernaut to a secure facility. It seems the mystery must remain a mystery for now.
The following day, Spidey tries to get some help from his long-underwear buddies over his Juggernaut problem. But with Doctor Strange out of town, Professor X not checking his voice mail and everyone else busy, it seems that Spidey is on his own once again. After stopping a mugging, Spidey spots an unusual sight: a car perched precariously on the top of the Washington Square Arch.
The drunk in the car says he was dumped there by a blue and white flying guy. Spidey ignores clue number one. He then returns to his apartment with the intention of having a shower and washing his costume. The radio says that unusual seismic activity has been detected in Lower Manhattan. Spidey ignores clue number two. He then hurries to the laundrette where, halfway through the spin cycle, he remembers that he should be having dinner with Carlie.
Over dinner, Peter confesses to Carlie that the headache cleared up and he worked all night getting shots of the Juggernaut. She's genuinely interested in what Peter saw. She's heard that the Juggernaut is slipping in and out of consciousness and has still not completely recovered. He's being held over at the Inwood Armoury until various law-enforcement bodies can decide whose jurisdiction the big lug falls under. Obviously, this information is enough for Peter to take the initiative.
Spider-Man has no trouble in breaking into the armoury and getting to the Juggernaut. He is heavily restrained, but Spidey manages to wake him. He reminds Marko of when they've previously fought on the same side. The Juggernaut mumbles that he was attacked by someone he didn't recognize: a guy in a blue and white costume. Spidey realizes the connection with the drunk from earlier.
Suddenly a flash of red light fills the room. A blue and white costumed character floats into view, surrounded by an aura of powerful energy. Spider-Man definitely recognizes him. It's Captain Universe. Oboy.
