J. Jonah Jameson, the publisher of the Daily Bugle, created the super criminal known as the Scorpion when he paid a thug named Mac Gargan to undergo an experimental scientific procedure to give him the powers of a Scorpion. Jameson believed that Gargan would then be able to track down and defeat the wall-crawler since scorpions are natural predators of spiders. The experiment was a success and Gargan set out to use his newfound powers and cybernetic tail to destroy the webbed wonder. However, the process drove Gargan mad and he turned on Jameson. After a hard fought battle in which he was seriously injured, the web-slinger defeated his more powerful foe and saved the life of Jameson, the man who had tried to destroy him. Today the Scorpion remains one of the wall-crawler's deadliest enemies. Includes exclusive motion trading card.
