NASA
invites both Peter and Sally-Ann Beaumont from Empire State University's
science committee to witness the landing of their Mars probe, Explorer One at
an island location. The probe, containing radioactive soil samples, lands on
target on the island's beach. However, the Sandman, who was hiding in the
surrounding sand, steals the soil sample and intends to absorb it into his
body, with the radiation contained in it making him more powerful. Spidey and
the military do battle with him. However, Spidey is unable to prevent Sandman
from absorbing the Martian soil after his mask is accidentally ripped off
during their fight, forcing him to retreat. Unfortunately, as a result of
donning his Spider-Man costume, Peter is then accused of negligence by
Sally-Ann, after he was nowhere to be seen during the Sandman's fight, and
faces dismissal from the college. After donning a new spider-suit complete
with mask, and forgetting to shut his closet door, Spidey sets about trying to
get to the school board meeting by four o'clock in order to prevent himself
from being thrown out of college. Meanwhile, the Sandman begins a crime spree
by stealing money from the First City Bank and then sets out to steal gold
from the New York Gold Reserve. With his new radioactive powers, the police
and Spider-Man are helpless to stop him. Spidey ends up in the position of
having to exonerate himself in front of the school board by four o'clock, shut
his closet door before Aunt May discovers his spare spider-suits, and stop the
radioactive-powered Sandman.

The Sandman is defeated the same
way in the Spider-Friends episode "Spider-Man:
Unmasked!"
