Owner's Description
"The Man Who Could Not Die!"
While out with Jerry Hunt, Jessica Drew witnesses a man trying to kill himself by falling from a fatal height. Changing into Spider-Woman, she saves the man, who flees the scene, upset that she tried to stop him. Following after him as he rides off on his motorcycle, she is shocked to find that he survives its subsequent crash, even when the motorcycle bursts into flames. Jessica is soon captured by the man, who reveals himself to be Samuel Davis. Davis has been condemned to live forever thanks to showing cowardice during the War of Independence after his entire unit was killed. Since then he has been trying to die, and each time he has found the curse to be true.
Learning that the only way to be free of the curse was to find someone who was willing to die for him, he hopes to kill himself along with Spider-Woman. Spider-Woman resists until Samuel saves her from a bear attack. Breaking free, Spider-Woman easily defeats the bear, and then agrees to die with Davis. Jumping off a cliff over some pointed rocks while chained together, Spider-Woman breaks free and flies away, leaving Davis to be impaled alone. However, he is killed, having been willing to put the safety of others ahead of his own wellbeing, thus lifting the curse.
