 An important science project for his Post-Grad course
 A vial of antidote which could cure Dr Connors (a.k.a. The Lizard)
 Papers with evidence showing Kingpin responsible for high-level corruption

Q. 5 'Brand of The Brainwasher'

In Amazing #59, Kingpin was the Brainwasher from the title of the story. He had a convoluted plan that involved having a dancer from the club (Mary-Jane gets a new job) take photos of important people who received invitations to the Gloom-Room-A-Go-Go club.

The camera flash made them partly dazed, and gave them a compulsion to go back-stage where they received the full brainwashing treatment. Then, they would perform evil deeds for the Kingpin. Earlier in the day Spider-Man had picked up hints of criminal behaviour of some of these people. What had they been noted doing for Kingpin?

 Leaking information to assist criminals
 Leaking valuable state security information
 Releasing recently arrested criminals
 Diverting police away from crime scenes
