Bookroo's summary

Charles, assistant to monster mediator Margo Maloo, faces his toughest challenge yet. Bitten by a giant spider, his only hope lies in the mysterious Downside, an underground monster city. As construction workers unknowingly threaten the spiders' home, Charles and Margo must race against time to find a cure and avert disaster. Will they navigate the forbidden city and save both Charles and the spiders before it's too late?

From the publisher

In the third volume of this beloved graphic novel series The Creepy Case Files of Margo Maloo: The Tangled Web, Drew Weing delivers a fresh and funny take on the age-old battle between kids and closet-dwelling monsters. As the assistant to Margo Maloo, Charles has gone on assignment in some pretty interesting locations. He’s been to a vampire’s lair, an ogre’s den, and even a monster grocery store! But he’s never been to the Downside, Echo City’s underground monster metropolis that is super mysterious and DEFINITELY off-limits to kids. But a settlement of giant spiders is about to be dynamited by unwitting construction workers–and, coincidentally, one of those giant spiders accidentally bites Charles. His cure and the spiders’ salvation lie in the Downside–if Charles and Margo can make it in time.
