3 story arcs in one issue? That's bold! (^_^')

Betty swears Peter to secrecy about her pregnancy...noone must know, not even Mary Jane. She then tells him who the father is...it's Ned Leeds! Even more startling, Ned is alive and well after all.

Artwork was a bit fugly (other than Betty, she looks cute) and Peter's looks of surprise and dread are way too comical. Ned looks pretty Sauvé though, and the art does improve towards the end
In my opinion, it cannot be Ned.

Perhaps, it is "Guardian Devil Redux" (except that Kindred has actual demonic powers)?

And he's not the only character being brought back this issue....the man who killed Peter and Theresa's parents, The Finisher, is Chameleon's cell mate [...]
Wow, Peter's robot parents got mentioned here. It's a logical choice
for a flashback because Harry was the mastermind behind that. I think by the time this arc is over, Theresa Parker will have a new origin, with her relation to Peter walked back on entirely.
Except if Kindred resurrected the Finisher, I find it weird.
I wonder if Nick Spencer has planned to involve the most obscure of Spider-Man's "Big Bads", the Gentleman, or not...

This speculation of mine is far from certain since the Chameleon Conspiracy is a short storyline (apparently) and there are a lot of other characters involved.

Epilogue: Kindred wants Doc Ock to recruit the Sinister Six for him, and in return, he'll restore his memories fully to him. He also references the cause of Otto's amnesia…his deal with Mephisto!
I still wonder who could be the unidentified decedent that may be connected to MJ Watson and whether it is his/her coffin that Doc Ock opened or not.
It took me a lot of time to realize that the prime focus of Kindred's actions is Mary Jane. So, I suppose that the identity of the corpse may explain why.
