Captured by J. Jonah Jameson
While Spider-Man is out he is almost caught by a robot. Later an inventor named Henry Smythe reveals his plans to capture Spider-Man with the robot and get paid by J. Jonah Jameson for his efforts. Although skeptical at first, Jameson becomes enthusiastic when the robot is activated and starts zeroing in on its target. Peter makes a hasty retreat from the editor's office, but the robot lumbers after him into the street. Ducking into an alley, the teenager changes to Spider-Man before leading the robot on a frantic chase throughout the city. When the robot catches him Betty enables Spider-Man to escape by pulling out the plug to the controls; however, Jameson sends her out. Spider-Man is finally caught again by the robot after knocking himself unconscious by swinging into a clock tower. However, he breaks into the robot's interior circuits and is able to free himself from the robot's tendrils.
