An unknowing Spider-Man helps Carol reach The Essential, "an immortal little girl who feeds on information. Just sucks it right out of the air." The Essential was ordered to be locked away since 1953 by Allen Dulles. Carol trades Stuart Cavenger's mechanical robot part, (which he used to put his mind into robots and eventually upload himself into the internet), for Eighty Terraflops of Holographic Storage of information on Norman Osborn, to destroy him.
