Owner's Description

Synopsis: ”Something Can Stop The Juggernaut, Part 3”

At the Fifth Precinct Police Headquarters, Carlie Cooper gets filled in by a fellow officer named Brenda as to the goings-on with Spidey and Juggernaut. At the demolition site, Captain Universe has both Spidey and Juggy held aloft in another dimension with his energy powers, still prattling on about getting revenge. Universe reveals that he used to be an office worker named William Nguyen, who worked at a financial firm, when Juggernaut crashed through the wall being chased by Spider-man (during the Nothing Can Stop The Juggernaut tale). Because of the damage to the office, the company was forced to downsize, leaving Nguyen laid off. Cap goes on to reveal that the incident left him with a girlfriend who broke up with him, a job at a fast food restaurant, and being evicted from his apartment.

Juggernaut butts in and relates the story of how Spider-man stopped him in a foundation pour of cement, during their first battle, and how he sunk to the bottom and smashed his way through the bedrock and out into the Hudson river. Smashing his way out of the ground took him a month. Cap quiets him and continues his tale—of how his human form was out on a bridge ready to jump, slipped on accident, and was in that moment consumed with the Uni-power. With his new powers, Nguyen searched the world for Juggernaut, found him, flew him up into the stratosphere, cracked his helmet into pieces and sent him hurtling back to Earth. After taking initial revenge on Juggy, the Unipower stayed with Nguyen, so he went back to finish the job he started. Juggy says Cap couldn’t beat him in a fair fight. Nguyen returns them to the Earth realm, and prepares to fight Juggy, but Spidey tries to talk them out of it.

Before he can, the ground begins to shake violently. Nguyen admits he didn’t finish the job underground last issue, sealing up the fault lines. He says he intends to, right after he finishes off Juggernaut. Grabbing Juggy’s helmet, the power shifts from Nguyen into Juggernaut. Spidey says Nguyen has offended the Enigma Force. Juggy elects to go underground and repair the tectonic plates, damaged by him during his breaking out of the cement trap years and years before. He fixes them, and returns topside, grabbing up Nguyen, but can’t go through with killing him. He drops Nguyen, and the Enigma Force leaves Juggy, saying its job is done.

In the epilogue, Nguyen is on a talk show, promoting his book “How I Survived the Juggernaut”, the proceeds of which will go to repair all the property damage done by him as Captain Universe.
