Synopsis
Jonas Harrow has been experimenting on the amnesiac J. Jonah Jameson
and learned that his new invention an experimental ray-generator that
causes those exposed to it to experience different emotions is a
complete success after months of beaming it on Jonah from across the
street of the Daily Bugle building. He has also been using it on Joe
Robertson since he took over as editor from the Bugle. When Harrow’s
monitoring device shows him that Robertson and Marla Madison are are
meeting to see if either have heard from Jonah, he uses the device to
make them begin a violent argument. When Peter Parker happens by the
Daily Bugle for a visit, he tries to intervene and he too is effected by
the device.
Fighting it’s effects, Peter finds that everyone in the Daily
Bugle has begun fighting each other, and maintains control enough to
pull the fire alarm making everyone instinctively flee the scene.
Locating the source of the sudden mood shift with his spider-sense,
Peter leaves the office, changes Spider-Man and crosses the street.
There it takes all his will power to fight off the fear beams being
casted from the device to reveal its hiding place in a water-tower and
destroy it.
Amused, Harrow reveals himself to Spider-Man and dares the
wall-crawler to come and attack him at his secret hideout. There,
Spider-Man is attacked by Harrow who has a new version of the device.
Spidey’s appearance prompts J. Jonah Jameson to regain his memory and
try to escape. While Spider-Man discovers the ray projectors multiple
breaker power source, he begins smashing them as Jameson tries to find
his own way to stop the device. When Spider-Man trashes the last
breaker, Jonah is simultaneously pulling a useless power chord, which
leaves Jameson to believe that he himself beat Harrow and now
Spider-Man.
Desperate to defeat Spider-Man, Harrow approaches the
wall-crawler with a loaded gun, but is easily knocked out by Spider-Man.
Harrow does manage to squeeze off a shot however, it goes wild, almost
hitting Jonah in the process. As usual the curmudgeonly editor believes
that Spider-Man made the bullet fly his way on purpose. Finding that
Jonah is alive and back to relative normality, Spider-Man leaves the
scene feeling oddly glad that his worst enemy is back to normal.

Synopsis
Continued from last issue…
Banshee flies outside of the
base and pushes his sonic scream to the limit blocking Moses Magnum’s
weapon, destroying the base as the other X-Men flee.
As they wait for Misty Knight and Colleen Wing to rescue them by
plane, the X-Men realize that Banshee has tapped out his mutant powers
saving the entire country and may not be able to use his powers again.
Ten days of recovery later, Banshee is released from a hospital and
returns to the Yashida house and finds that the other X-Men have put up a
Christmas tree to celebrate both Christmas and Banshee’s release. While
the others celebrate, Wolverine wanders off to spend more time with
Lady Mariko, while Colossus deals with the loneliness of being away from
his family during the holidays.
While in Scotland, Jean Grey arrives by train and is welcome by
Alex, Lorna, Jamie Madrox and Moira MacTaggert. The group plan on
showing Jean around all the sights before returning to Muir Island to
celebrate the holidays. Unknown to them, the bitter boat owner Angus
MacWhirter has come to the island to get revenge against MacTaggert for
the damage done to one of his hovercrafts during the X-Men’s battle
against Magneto ( see X-Men #104, in italy on Cap Corno 127 / 128 ). However before he can do anything he is confronted by a strange being that takes possession of his body.
