In Web of Spider-Man #100 (May 1993), Kavanagh and artist Alex Saviuk gave the lead character "Spider-Armor".[4] He wrote the Spider-Man/Punisher/Sabretooth: Designer Genes one-shot the following month.[5] Kavanagh was one of the writers on the "Maximum Carnage" storyline which ran through the various Spider-Man titles in 1993.[6] The first Black Cat limited series was co-written by Kavanagh and Joey Cavalieri in 1994.[7] Kavanagh pitched a storyline involving the return of Spider-Man's clone,[8] which then formed the basis of the "Clone Saga" which began in Web of Spider-Man #117 (Oct. 1994).[9] Kavanagh's last new comics project was the Before the Fantastic Four: The Storms limited series in 2000–2001.[3][10]
