Synopsis

Let Fly These Aged Wings! * Vulture (Adrian Toomes) appearance Adrian Toomes is in Bellevue hospital to rehabilitate after the injuries he had suffered during his last battle with Spider-man. He meets Nathan Lubensky in the hospital and takes advantage of technical materials that are there to improve rehabilitation machines in the hospital. With those spare parts Toomes builds a temporary set of wings and escapes the hospital. The Vulture-flies-again The Vulture return initiates a robbery campaign that lasts for weeks. The Vulture uses the Restwell Nursing home as a base camp and hides the materials of his operations. He also befriends Nathan Lubensky and participates in his poker parties. Peter Parker pays a visit to his aunt May in Restwell and meets Toomes. He recognizes him as the Vulture and forces him to a room where he detains him. Suddenly, May comes to ask Toomes about her nephew and in the meantime Parker turns into Spider-man and attacks the Vulture. In the battle the Vulture catches Nathan Lubensky and uses him to escape, although without harm to his friend.
