SYNOPSIS (courtesty of Rey):
After Nick Fury finally tracks down Jess and reveals that her parents are still alive, Jess demands answers.
Aboard the Hellicarrier, Jess learns of her father’s ongoing involvement with Hydra, but also her mother Miriam’s tragic events and eventual off-the-grid location.
Tracking her mother using her maiden name, Brumback, Jess is surprised to find her mother’s apartment occupied by Hydra agents, one of whom is Whiplash an assassin.
Fleeing the scene after a confrontation with Jess, Whiplash leaves Spier-Woman to discover her mother, Miriam murdered. Amidst her corpse, Jess discovers some documents, one labelled the Athena device.
SHIELD soon catch up with the events at Miriam’s apartment and again lose contact with Jess. They do, however, note the connection with the Athena device, and a name..Otto Vermis.
Aware that Vermis would be Jess’ next target, Fury instructs SHIELD to find Vermis immediately.
Out on the Mediterranean Sea, Vermis is aboard his boat, alongside a woman who is more than willing to entertain him. Vermis suddenly shocks her by accusing her of spying and brings out Whiplash to verify. The woman continues to plead ignorance until Whiplash winds up to strike her. It’s revealed it is Jess in disguise, and she leaps from the boat to the safety of the waters.
Believing Jess dead, Vermis, Whiplash and crew soon discover that Jess has more than escape planned when she flees in a speedboat, blowing up Vermis boat, along with all on board.
Later, on an oil rig, Jonathan Drew ponders the experiments and research he has undergone for Hydra when all of a sudden, there is Spider-Woman - Jessica Drew - ready to confront her father.

SYNOPSIS (courtesy of Rey):
Jessica confronts her father on board a Hydra base and overcome with emotion, Jessica is met with a purely scientific and analytical curiosity. Jonathan appears more amazed at the specimen of Jessica Drew, rather than the fact that his daughter is alive and well...and the emotion from the years that they hadn’t been in contact, appears to be alien to him.
It also is confirmed from Jonathan that Hydra had conditioned Jess’ brain to punish her whenever she defies Hydra, and to Jess’ disappointment, Jonathan admits that he is happy at Hydra.
Jessica soon realises the selfishness of her father, and storms out intent on annihilating the base.
As the base is destroyed at the hands of Spider-Woman, Madam Viper and a deformed (yet alive) General Wyndham call upon the survivors of the Athena Project - super soldiers created by Jonathan and based from the DNA of Jessica Drew.
Meanwhile, Viper attempts to get Jonathan to safety, however it seems that Jonathan finally has some change of heart, and in an act of defiance and surrender, Jonathan refuses to leave. Viper callously shoots him, claiming that two more of his kind can easily take his place.
Back on the main deck, Spider-Woman attacks all Athena Project soldiers, despite some of their protests, however iit proves to be merely a diversion, as the base then explodes into a massive fireball.
Spider-Woman survives and half conscious, she is taken in by one of the arriving SHIELD hellicarriers.
Days later, Nick Fury meets with Jessica and offers an open door at SHIELD, to which she is grateful for the gesture at least.
The west coast looks promising for her, and before she departs from Fury, Jessica offers her services as a private investigator, claiming she’s only just getting started.

SYNOPSIS (courtesty of Wiki):
Spider-Woman is inside a grocery store after closing hours thinking of stealing food. She continues to contemplate what to do with her life and who she really is and decides not to steal. Sneaking out of the store, she is confronted by Jerry Hunt, who tries to stop her. However, Spider-Woman manages to escape, although Jerry manages to grab her mask and pull it off, and swears that he's seen her face before. Returning to the apartment that she lives in, all too aware of everyone's fear of her because they can sense she is more than human.[Continuity 1] Once Jessica Drew returns home she decides to retire for the evening.
As Jessica sleeps, she dreams of the brief time she spent with Modred the Mystic and how he used his magic to reveal the truth about her past.[Continuity 2] He revealed she wasn't one of the New Men as she was told by Hydra's Otto Vermis.[Continuity 3] In reality, she was a human being. She was Jessica Drew, the daughter of Jonathan and Miriam Drew. They worked with Herbert Wyndham on Wundagore Mountain. Jessica fell victim to radiation poisoning, and her father treated her. Her mother, however, would eventually die. Failing to find a cure for Jessica's condition, Jonathan would leave Wundagore, leaving Wyndham to try and find a cure for the girl's radiation poisoning. Infusing her with the DNA of a spider, he put her in suspended animation for years, slowing her aging process until she developed an immunity. Years later, long after Wyndham became the High Evolutionary, Jessica was cured of the radiation poisoning and when she was awoken it was discovered that she had fantastic powers she would later use as Spider-Woman. Jessica wakes up screaming, but eventually calms down. She thinks about how after she later became a brainwashed servant of Hydra under the command of Otto Vermis and vows never to let that happen to herself again.

Running in an alley, Jessica changes into Spider-Woman and decides to fight back. Tossing a lamp post at Jerry, she realizes that he could be killed. Quickly she pushes Jerry to safety and flees the scene. Back home, she decides to do a better disguise job at disguising herself. To do so she alters her mask and dyes her hair black.

She recognizes these men as Chauncy and Trevor. two men she encountered with the Thing and later Modred.[Continuity 5] Jerry is injured in the crossfire prompting Spider-Woman to swoop in and get him to safety. She then turns her attention to the two gunmen and discovers that she is immune to the unique radiation emitted from their weapons. She easily knocks out the two men with her venom blasts then goes to check on Jerry. As she is distracted, Chauncy recovers and manages to shoot her from behind. Quickly recovering from the blast, Spider-Woman whirls around and takes him down with another venom blast.

SYNOPSIS (courtesty of Wiki):
Arriving in England to deliver the Deathlok cyborg to Dr. Kort, the Thing, and Alicia spend a bit of time sightseeing before going to their appointed destination. Arriving there, they find that the entire mansion has been overturned; unaware that Dr. Kort had been kidnapped by Hydra who intends to have the doctor revive their agent, Spider-Woman.
When Alicia finds blood at the scene of the kidnapping, her screams bring Shang-Chi, who mistakes the Thing for an attacker. After a brief battle, they realize the reality of the situation and Shang-Chi agrees to help the Thing find Dr. Kort. Tracking him down to a hidden Hydra base, Thing and Shang-Chi fight off the Hydra hordes and save Dr. Kort. However, in spite of their victory, Hydra has obtained the serum they need to revive Spider-Woman.
Ben and Alicia are still in London enjoying the sights when Ben hears an explosion. Investigating, he finds two crooks who are blasting open the secret locations of map plates which would lead to a long lost treasure. As the Thing tries to round them up, he is attacked by the newly revived Spider-Woman, who is once more loyal to Hydra. She has come to terminate Ben, however, at the last moment, she chokes and is later forced to flee. Returning to Hydra headquarters she angers her superiors but promises to kill Ben Grimm next time.
Later, while sight-seeing, Ben and Alicia are once more attacked by Spider-Woman, who kidnaps Alicia and flies off. Ben chases after her but runs amok of the same crooks trying to uncover yet another piece of their treasure map. Ben fights through them and picks up his trail on Spider-Woman, which takes him to Big Ben, where the two battle it out. Although Ben has superior strength, he's no match for Spider-Woman's speed and venom blasts. However before a victor can be made, the two crooks -- also at Big Ben to find another part of the map, capitalize on the battle to try and eliminate Ben, and so they detonate a bomb which knocks both Thing and Spider-Woman into the Thames River.

SYNOPSIS (courtesty of Wiki):
Iron Man's analysis reveals that the creatures burst from the bodies of the researchers after using them as incubators, and that the parasitic bacteria they grew from was in the water supply. The information comes too late to stop Banner from drinking some of the water and contracting the bacteria himself. Realizing that his body will become an uncontrollable Hulk to fight the infection, they move him to a safe room aboard the helicarrier and prepare for the dangerous proposition of trying to inject the Hulk with antibiotics.
Meanwhile, Captains Marvel and America trace Sergei Sorokin to an unauthorized plane takeoff over Australia and intercept in a Quinjet. The aircraft is commanded by Yun Guang Han, a ruthless terrorist who abducted Sorokin before poisoning the other researchers' water supply to use them as guinea pigs for the bacteria's effects. Han drops several mindless, ghoul-like henchmen directly onto the Quinjet to attack it, forcing Carol to land while Steve boards Han's plane. Captain America comes face-to-face with Han, who threatens to immediately release the infection on the countryside below if he doesn't back down. With no other choice for the time being, the Avengers let the bad guys escape.

SYNOPSIS (courtesty of Wiki):
With Nick Fury stationed at a S.H.I.E.L.D. base on the Riviera, Hydra (led by Otto Vermis) sends a squad to attack, with their newest super-agent, their "spider-woman" whom they have code-named Arachne. Sent to assassinate Fury, Arachne thinks back to the events that led her to become a member of Hydra: how she was a girl in a small European village and was considered a witch because of her fantastic powers. However, she was found and taken in by Otto Vermis and made a member of Hydra. There she and fellow Hydra agent Jared became lovers. However, Jared would soon be captured by S.H.I.E.L.D., and Vermis would send Arachne to assassinate Fury in revenge.
When Arachne accidentally kills Jared trying to get at him, Fury realizes that Arachne is unaware that Hydra is a terrorist organization and shows her video footage of Jared threatening innocent lives. Convinced that Hydra has played her for a fool, the angry Arachne goes back to get revenge against Vermis and his Hydra unit. Confronted before he can escape, Vermis reveals the truth about her origins: that she is really one of the High Evolutionary's New Men, a highly evolved spider, who did not fit in with her fellow New Men and fled to a nearby town where she was recruited by Hydra.
Vermis breaks free from Arachne and tries to make his escape in a Hydra shuttle. Arachne follows his ship, damaging it enough to make it crash and killing Vermis. As S.H.I.E.L.D. secures the Hydra base, Arachne flees and wanders off into the wildness to wonder what she will do with herself now.

While the two criminals continue to search for their lost treasure -- which turns out to be stolen from British Treasury during World War II -- They have almost completed collecting the plates needed to assemble a map pointing out the location of the treasure.
Meanwhile, Hyrda exposes Alicia to the serum they synthesized based on Spider-Woman and mutates her into a woman-spider creature, restoring her sight technologically. Ordering her to destroy the Thing and Spider-Woman, Alicia attacks them and their battle takes them across the city of London, finally ending in a department store where the Alicia-creature catches Ben in a spider-web.
As Ben and Spider-Woman continue to battle the spider-mutated Alicia Masters, the two criminals searching for the long lost stolen treasure of World War II. They find the treasure they sought, however, when they open the treasure chest, they find themselves sucked into it by mystical forces.
As the battle between Ben, Spider-Woman, and Alicia rages on, Ben smashes the control module on her forehead. Losing their ability to control Alicia thanks to the destruction of this device, the Hydra agent in charge of this mission is ordered killed by the Supreme Hydra for his failure.
Alicia has the two heroes on the ropes until the Invisible Girl arrives. Using her invisible force fields, Sue manages to cut off Alicia's oxygen supply until she passes out.

To make Ben feel worse, the people of London who originally treated him with celebrity when he first arrived are now treating him as a monster following the battle. Sue tracks down Ben and tells her that Alicia is calling out to him, and so they return to Kort's lab just as Alicia is being transformed back to normal.normal.

The trio is all transported below Stonehenge where they find that all the tourists have been transported to and are being kept as prisoners. The elementals explain that they were summoned to capture Mordred the mystic for Merlin, who has recently been revived in modern times. They have vowed to capture Mordred even if it means the destruction of the Earth. As the elementals are explaining their mission, Ben and Spider-Woman attack them but prove unable to make any lasting damage against them.
When all seems lost, Mordred arrives to answer the elementals challenge. While Mordred and Spider-Woman battle the elementals, Ben goes looking for Alicia. Mordred transports himself, the elementals, and Spider-Woman back to the surface where Mordred uses his magic to convince the elementals to fight each other. Each opposing element pitted against each other and being destroyed. After the battle, Mordred transports everyone back to the surface and erases the tourist's memories of the experience.
