On a quiet night in Manhattan, the web-slinger is traveling across the city when he suddenly hears a desperate plea for help from a man running for his life! The frantic pharmacist is trying to escape from...Cloak and Dagger! The wall-crawler quickly engages the light-and-dark pair, but falls in battle to the duo's unusual powers. The next day Peter Parker picks up the investigation, and the trail of Cloak (aka Tyrone Johnson) and Dagger (aka Tandy Bowen) leads to Ellis Island!
