He attempts to steal a power cell artifact recently retrieved by the Fantastic Five in the Negative Zone . Spyral believes the power cell can help increase the power of his warp spirals and allow him to return to his home dimension. His plan is eventually thwarted by the Fantastic Five and Spider-Girl (she was a patron attending the museum exhibit as May Parker at the time of the incident) and is placed in prison. Eventually Spyral escapes from prison and makes a second attempt to generate a portal strong enough to return home.
