---------------------------------------------------------
Matt Murdock: You may have dodged your legal troubles but things
will get much worse. There's still the court of public opinion.

Name: Peter Parker
Commonly Called: Pete, Petey, Spider-Man
Age: 18 years old
Species: Enhanced Human
Gender: Male
Height: 5'7"
Weight: 141 lbs
Organization: Avengers
~ Rank: Special Agent
Enhanced Abilities:
Artificially Enhanced Physiology: Peter Parker gained several
spider-like abilities due to the bite of a genetically-altered
spider. The complex mutagenic enzymes in the spider's blood that
were transferred at the time of the bite triggered numerous
body-wide mutagenic changes within Parker, granting him
superhuman strength, speed, toughened flesh, and a spider-sense.
However, due to his inexperience, he doesn't have full control
of his powers and is still discovering them, including his
spider-sense.
Superhuman Strength: Spider-Man possesses the proportionate
strength of a spider. His strength enables him to lift more than
the weight of a car, even at greater speeds. He was also able to
catch and support a collapsing jet bridge and break through hard
glass with a few blows. Spider-Man was ultimately able to lift
the considerable amount of concrete roof that Vulture had
collapsed on top of him, though doing so painfully strained him
and he also lifted a collapse bell tower. During the Black
Order's arrival in New York, Peter was able to catch Cull
Obsidian's hammer moments before it struck Iron Man. His
strength is sufficient enough to stagger Thanos.
Superhuman Speed: Spider-Man can move at greater speeds than an
ordinary human, making him adept at dodging quick attacks.
Superhuman Durability: Spider-Man possesses denser bones and
toughened flesh that allows him to survive great impacts.
Spider-Man has endured attacks from other enhanced individuals
without sustaining any lasting damage. He was also unaffected
when he fell from height of several stories. Moreover,
Spider-Man survived being dragged from a speeding van and
enduring hits from garbage bins and stacks of bricks, as well as
Vulture collapsing a considerable portion of a concrete roof on
top of him, he later survives a plane crash and falls from the
inside of the Washington Monument while only being
incapacitated. While Spider-Man followed Ebony Maw as he chased
after Doctor Strange and the Time Stone, Peter was unfazed by
the various objects flung at him by Maw, even shaking off a
direct collision with a road sign, resuming his pursuit. Peter
was even able to withstand a blow from the tremendously strong
Thanos while wearing the Iron Spider Armor.
Superhuman Agility: Spider-Man is exceptionally agile and fast,
capable of swinging around on thin webbing, flipping, and
jumping very high distances without any difficulty. His bones,
muscles, and joints have more elastic strength and durability,
allowing him to perform gymnastic and contortionist maneuvers
without damaging his bone structure. He used his agility to
outmaneuver and beat any enhanced individuals attacks.
Spider-Man's sense of balance is similar to most arachnid
species, allowing him to perform complex acrobatics. He is able
to adjust his position by instinct, enabling him to balance
himself on a string of web, do a front flip and land on it.
Superhuman Reflexes: Spider-Man's reaction time and coordination
is significantly enhanced, having his brain respond to stimuli
at an accelerated rate. Spider-Man can effectively dodge and
counter incoming attacks in combat. He is also able to catch
individuals or objects moving at high speeds even without
looking.
Superhuman Stamina: Spider-Man is able to exert himself into
physical activity much longer than normal humans, without
tiring.
Enhanced Senses: Peter describes his heightened senses as being
"dialed to eleven." Due to his enhanced sense of sight,
Spider-Man had to restrict this ability with shutter eye lenses,
in order to not let it handicap him during combat.
Enhanced Vision: Spider-Man's sense of sight is superhuman, to
the point that he is forced to wear dark goggles to prevent it
from handicapping him in a battle, as there is "too much input."
Spider-Sense (Peter Tingle): Spider-Man has a pronounced
survival instinct which warns him of impending danger. This
awareness functions on a subconscious level, thus alerting
Spider-Man of dangers he cannot readily notice at first,
including projectiles aimed at him from a blind spot. Spider-Man
can sense a bench that Winter Soldier had hurled at him and
Spider-Man sensed someone coming his way and, without looking,
incapacitated him with a web grenade while the Staten Island
Ferry was split in half. Later, he was also able to dodge
Vulture's Exo-Suit at full speed, effectively maneuvering in
close quarters at a high rate of speed. He was able to sense the
spaceship landing in New York City, despite being miles away
from the site. His senses had also warned him of his impending
demise at the hands of Thanos. In Spider-Man: Far From Home this
is officially named the "Peter Tingle".
Wall-Crawling: Spider-Man is able to adhere to surfaces like a
spider, enabling him to crawl on walls or ceilings with ease.
This ability allows him to stick to any surface when willing
himself to, as physical contact with surfaces can creates a
locking connection necessary to support his body, even when he
is inverted above the ground. He has also stated that he doesn't
use any adhesive device to achieve this.
Regenerative Healing Factor: Spider-Man's increased metabolism
allows him to rapidly heal from injuries more extensively than
normal humans. He was able to rapidly heal a black eye and other
scars from fighting the Vulture in a matter of hours.
Skills:
Genius-Level Intellect: Peter is academically gifted in science,
specifically in chemistry, physics, and engineering. He is smart
enough to create a chemical compound that is used as webbing and
constructed his working artificial web-shooters. In addition, he
was a valued member of the academic decathlon team, with Liz
Toomes claiming that Peter was its most intelligent member. His
intellect was praised by Tony Stark himself, who was impressed
with his webbing he made.
Expert Scientist and Engineer: Peter Parker has displayed in
various knowledge of science. He easily sorted out a gravity
equation during one class in school, by taking one look at the
board, identified Falcon's wings being made from carbon fiber
and made a fluid similar to a spider's web. He is also an expert
of inventing own computers taken from trash, his first
Spider-Man suit, first pair of web-shooters and his upgraded red
and black suit.
Skilled Tactician: Peter draws from pop culture from 80s films
and using the laws of physics to make strategies in taking down
his enemies during fights.
Master Acrobat: Due to his superhuman physical abilities, Peter
is a very skilled acrobat and gymnast. He easily surpasses
normal acrobats and is able to pre-form somersaults, flips,
spins, cartwheels, etc. Hence, he was able to quickly shoot
strings of webbing at the strongest points of the Staten Island
Ferry together, using his web-shooters and his own
enhanced-agility, succeeding his active maneuvers to keep it
together.
Skilled Combatant: Using a mixture of his superhuman strength,
speed, agility, reflexes, equilibrium, spider-sense, and
web-shooters, Peter is able to utilize a devastating acrobatic
fighting style that makes him a formidable opponent.
Multilingualism: Peter speaks his native English and Spanish,
thanks to studying in school with success. As well as some
Italian, when he talked to a store owner at a Bodega.
Weaknesses: Peter is still human when it comes down to what he
truly is so, even with his regenerative healing factor, he can
be killed with enough damage. Regeneration Nullification powers
can temporarily knock out Peter's healing factor.
Equipment:
Web-Shooters: Spider-Man created mechanical web-shooters that
attach to his wrists and utilize them in various ways, such as
using them to immobilize or ensnare his enemies and web
swinging. His new pair of web-shooters is supplied with
technological improvements and a few new features The upgraded
web-shooters also comes with selective web types and a laser
targeting system for accuracy.
Spider-Man Suit: Spider-Man owns two suits, the first suit was
made by Peter himself which contains his homemade web-shooters
and black goggles, while his second suit is designed by Tony
Stark to help focus his powers.
Personality: Outside of his Spider-Man alter ego, Parker lives
the life of a normal 17-year-old high school student. He cares
deeply for his Aunt May. He is a very intelligent science
enthusiast, capable of inventing and building his own
web-shooters. Parker is a friendly but shy and awkward
individual; he is happy to talk but often stumbles on his own
words in a conversation. As opposed to Iron Man or Captain
America, Parker makes it a point to keep his identity secret
since if such knowledge was made public his aunt would be
worried sick and he would have major trouble with the law on the
grounds of vigilantism.
Parker is also highly impressionable towards figures of
authority, which is likely due to his young age and
inexperience. An example of this was towards Captain America,
when asked about why he was fighting, Parker stated that it was
because Stark had said that Rogers was in the wrong, while he
had no opinion of his own on the matter. Parker was also very
excited to be in a fight with other superheroes, to the point
where people on both Captain America's and Iron Man's teams were
asking how old he is, due to his child-like behavior during the
airport battle.
Parker idolizes Iron Man and sees him as a role model, he even
admires and has respect for Tony Stark, even when the latter
contemplated telling Aunt May his identity which he was strongly
against. Through his first official mission as Spider-Man,
Parker showed a strong desire to impress the other superheroes
and prove his worth, especially towards Iron Man. As Spider-Man,
Parker is courageous and capable, being able to come up with
clever strategies due to his scientific and filmic expertise (he
is an avid movie watcher as well). He frequently annoys his
enemies with fast-talking humor and quipping, prompting members
of both Captain America's faction.
During his fledgling career as a superhero, Peter was shown to
be stressing over his jokes and trying to make a lasting
impression on people. He does value life, ordering Karen to not
make him kill anyone when he activated his 'advanced combat
mode'. He even risked his own life to save the Vulture from an
explosion and resulting fire, despite the Vulture attempting to
kill him and possessing knowledge of his secret identity.
Biography: Peter Parker is a high school student, living in
Queens New York City, who has been using his enhanced agility
and a device to shoot tensile webbing to fight crime, while
disguised as a spider-based hero. When Peter arrived at his
apartment, Tony Stark was talking to his aunt about a certain
grant. Tony asks May to talk to him privately. Tony then asked
him why he's doing this, Parker explains that he understands the
price of not doing the right thing. Tony asked him to come to
Germany, despite not wanting to go, Parker decides to go along
so that his secret identity won't be told to Aunt May.
Trying to flee Berlin and reach Siberia before Zemo, Steve
Rogers and his team assemble at Leipzig Halle Airport, where
they hope to take a chopper out of the country. When sirens
indicate the airport is being evacuated, Rogers instructs his
team to suit up, and travels to a chopper alone, where he is
confronted by Stark alongside his allies, including Parker who
now has a new costume courtesy of Stark, and calling himself
Spider-Man in front of Captain America. When Rogers refuses to
back down, the Avengers get into a massive fight which destroys
a large section of the airport. During the fight, the Avengers
decides to buy time for Rogers and Barnes to reach the Quinjet,
at the expense of imprisonment. Ant-Man uses his suit to grow
gargantuan, which tips the scales and creates enough of a
distraction to allow Rogers and Barnes to reach a jet. The two
are confronted by Natasha Romanoff, but she can't bring herself
to take them down and allows them to leave in Stark's Quinjet,
while the rest of the Avengers are captured. As Stark and Rhodes
chase the jet, Vision attempts to blast Falcon, who is following
them, out of the sky. However, he misses and hits Rhodes, who
plummets to the ground and is left paralyzed. Romanoff, knowing
she will be arrested for acting against the accords, goes into
hiding. Parker is accidentally backhanded and sent into some
crates by Ant-Man, and the grateful Stark sends Peter back home,
much to the former's dismay.
Later on, Peter discovers a red beam of light emitted from his
Web-Shooters that Stark had programmed, projecting the
Spider-Signal.
Months later, following the Avengers' internal dispute, Peter
Parker resumes his studies after Stark tells him he is not yet
ready to become an Avenger. Over the objections of his Aunt May,
Peter quits his school's decathlon team in order to spend more
time focusing on his "Stark Industries internship", which is a
cover for his crime-fighting activities as Spider-Man.
One night, after preventing Toomes' associates from robbing an
ATM, Peter returns to his room at his Queens apartment only for
his best friend Ned to discover his secret identity. On another
night, Peter comes across Toomes' associates Schultz and Brice
selling Chitauri weaponry to local gangster Aaron Davis. When he
tries to intervene, Peter nearly loses his life at Toomes' hands
and is rescued by Stark. Toomes later kills Brice for
jeopardizing the operation.
Peter works with Ned to remove the power core. A tracking device
leads Schultz to Midtown School, but Peter and Ned manage to
evade him. After planting his own tracking device on Schultz and
learning that it leads to Maryland, Peter rejoins the decathlon
team and accompanies them to Washington, D.C. for Nationals.
Working with Ned, Peter disables the tracker implanted in his
Spider-Man suit and unlocks all its secret features. He later
tries to stop Toomes from stealing weapons from a D.O.D.C.
truck, but ends up being overpowered and trapped inside the
truck, causing him to miss Nationals. When he discovers that the
Chitauri power core is unstable, Peter tracks Ned to the
Washington Monument, arriving just as the core explodes and
traps Ned in an elevator. Evading local authorities, Peter
manages to save Ned and fellow classmate Liz before the elevator
plummets.
Returning to New York City, Peter persuades Davis to reveal
Toomes' whereabouts. Confronting Toomes and his associates at
the Staten Island Ferry, Peter captures the group's new buyer
Mac Gargan while Toomes escapes after a malfunctioning weapon
tears the ferry in half. Stark helps Peter save the passengers
before admonishing him for his recklessness and taking the suit
away. While picking up Liz for Midtown's annual homecoming
dance, Peter learns that she is Toomes' daughter. Deducing
Peter's secret identity, Toomes threatens retaliation if he
continues to interfere with his plans.
During the homecoming dance, Peter realizes Toomes is planning
to hijack the Stark cargo plane transporting weaponry from
Avengers Tower to the team's new headquarters in upstate New
York. Leaving the dance and donning his homemade Spider-Man
suit, Peter is ambushed by Schultz only for Ned to save him.
Peter then confronts Toomes in his lair, who attempts to
persuade him to his side. When Peter refuses, Toomes destroys
the building's support beams and leaves him to die.
Managing to escape, Peter intercepts Toomes on-board the
now-damaged plane, steering it towards the beach near Coney
Island. The two engage in a confrontation that ends with Peter
saving Toomes' life and leaving him for the police.
Sometime later, Peter learns that Liz is moving away and both
had to sat good bye to each other. Happy Hogan calls him over a
during the decathlon team meeting and told that Stark offers him
a trip to the Avengers facility. Later, Stark propose to Peter a
new Iron Spider suit and an invitation to join the Avengers.
Peter later declines Stark's invitation to join the Avengers and
inspires Stark to bring an engagement ring to a press conference
where Pepper Potts is present. Upon returning home, Peter
discovers that Stark has returned his upgraded suit and puts it
on just as May walks into his room.
During a bus trip, Parker woke up when he sensed the appearance
of an alien warship hovering over New York. Understanding the
gravity of the situation, he asked Ned Leeds to create a
distraction which Leeds promptly did when he warned the rest of
the students about the warship. Using the distraction, Parker
donned his mask and headed toward the conflict. He managed to
arrive in time to assist his mentor, Iron Man, as he fought
against Cull Obsidian. During the battle, one of their
associates, Doctor Strange was defeated and captured by Ebony
Maw and Iron Man tasked Spider-Man to rescue the sorcerer.
Despite Spider-Man's best effort to rescue Doctor Strange, he
was unable to retrieve him and was subsequently pulled toward
the alien warship. He nearly suffocated as the ship left Earth's
atmosphere but was promptly rescued by the intervention of Iron
Man who summoned the Iron Spider Suit. Despite Iron Man's orders
to return home, Spider-Man remained on board and infiltrated the
ship.
Spider-Man infiltrated the ship for some time. He eventually
managed to locate Stark, receiving a brief scolding from his
mentor and defending his actions, Stark reluctantly allowed
Parker to assist him. They both managed to locate Strange as
Ebony Maw tortured him to force him to give up his Infinity
Stone. Parker suggested a plan to distract their opponent, using
a strategy from a movie called, Aliens.
Spider-Man waited as his mentor went to distract their enemy and
surprised him by blasting a hole on the side of the ship. Ebony
Maw was sucked into the vacuum of space and was subsequently
killed. Spider-Man narrowly managed to save Strange from the
same fate through the use of his new suit's spider legs. Polite
as ever, Parker introduced himself to Doctor Strange, who
returned the gesture; however, Parker mistook Strange's proper
title for his superhero name. Parker watched as Stark and
Strange discussed and argued about how to confront their enemy
Thanos. After debating, Strange reluctantly agreed to help
confronting Thanos. Stark then officially made Parker a member
of the Avengers, making him happy.
Tony Stark suggested him, Doctor Strange, and Spider-Man leave
it to go to its destination, bringing them to a planet called
Titan. Parker assisted Stark with steering and landing the ship
on the planet. After crash-landing, they began to prepare
themselves before they were attacked by a new group of arrivals,
called the Guardians of the Galaxy. A brief scuffle happened
aboard the ruined ship which ended when Spider-Man was held at
gunpoint by Star-Lord and Iron Man capturing Drax the Destroyer.
Eventually, both groups learned that they are both after Thanos
and an uneasy alliance was formed between them.
Leaving the ruined ship, everyone stared planning on how to beat
Thanos. Strange meditated with the Time Stone to find a way for
them to win; despite the extreme amount of ways they lose, there
was a single future in which they win. Eventually, the Mad Titan
arrived on the planet which was revealed to be his former home
world. A fierce battle ensued on the ruined world as Spider-Man
fought alongside his allies to subdue and take off the Infinity
Gauntlet to keep him from using the weapon.
The alliance nearly succeeded until Star-Lord's outrage by the
reveal of the death of his lover, Gamora, at the hands of
Thanos, ruined Mantis' effort to subdue the titan. This allowed
Thanos to utilize his gauntlet and turn the tide back in his
favor. Thanos succeeded with taking the Time Stone from Strange
and teleported away from the battle to locate the final stone on
Earth.
Thanos succeeded with collecting all of the Infinity Stones and
unleashed the full extent of its power to exterminate half of
the population of the entire universe with a mere snap of his
fingers. Back on Titan, Parker watched as their allies began
fading and disappearing one by one, until he realized that he
himself was also beginning to fade. Terrified, Parker tearfully
clutched onto his mentor as he insisted that he did not want to
die. Stark stayed by him and attempted to comfort his scared
protege. As Parker collapsed, he muttered a final apology to
Stark for failing him before he disintegrated into nothingness,
along with half the life in the universe.
After being snapped away for 5 years, Parker comes back to help
the Avengers fight a Thanos from 2014. Peter comes out of a
portal created by Doctor Strange to fight for the greater good.
Parker gives Tony Stark a hug after not seeing him for 5 years,
telling him about what it was like being dusted. Later on in the
battle, Stark gains all 6 Infinity Stones, and snaps his own
fingers to snap away Thanos and his army. Stark ends up dying
while doing this, and Parker is one of the first to run up to
him to be by his side while he dies.
Parker attends Tony Stark's funeral with May Parker, mourning
the loss of Stark. All of the Avengers are at this Funeral,
grieving his loss. Some notable people there are Steve Rogers,
Pepper Potts and Nick Fury.
Following Tony Stark's death and funeral, Peter continued to act
as the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man, doing his best to live
up to what he felt were the giant shoes Stark left for him to
fill as his protégé. He hosted fundraisers and charity events
for the homeless and did his best to cut down on the returning
crime waves in Queens, as well as around the entire rest of the
city, including thwarting a robbery by the Manfredi Mob. He
became well-known and liked by the residents of the city and was
hailed as one of the city's heroes, and was even thought to be
taking Iron Man's mantle.
In spite of this, Peter still felt that he was not living up to
the posthumous expectations of his mentor and struggled with the
post-traumatic stress of being killed in the so-called "Blip"
and brought back by what became known as "The Blip," only to
have his world shattered by such a hard loss. In an effort to
ease his anxiety and stress, Peter signed up for a
trans-Atlantic trip to Europe with Ned, MJ, and the rest of his
classmates who returned after the five-year time gap. Prior to
the trip to Europe, Peter decided to leave both of his suits at
home, wanting to just be a normal teenager for the duration of
the vacation and not wanting to remind himself of Thanos or
Stark's death. Unbeknownst to him, however, his Aunt May packed
the traditional Stark suit in his suitcase before he left on the
trip. Peter also planned to confess his growing feelings for MJ
to her while in Europe. The class first traveled to Venice,
Italy, where Peter discovered that May had packed his suit for
him. He left the suit in the hotel room, but took the
web-shooters just in case. Peter later began to flirt with MJ
while on a gondola ride until a large humanoid figure made of
water burst out of the canals and began to attack the Rialto
Bridge. Peter helped clear his classmates out of the area and
then donned his web-shooters and attempted to stop the creature,
but was quickly defeated. A man then flew in trailing green
smoke behind him and managed to take down the creature with only
a little effort before disappearing again. Later on, the class
watched a report on the attack on the news at the hotel,
revealing the newcomer's name to be Mysterio.
That night, as Peter and Ned were getting ready to go to sleep,
Ned was tranquilized and Peter was introduced personally to Nick
Fury, who had previously tried to contact him, but had failed as
Peter did not want to shoulder the extra weight of whatever
assignment Fury had for him. Fury advised Peter to suit up, then
took him to a secret base under the canals, where Maria Hill was
also waiting. Here, Fury introduced Peter to Mysterio, whose
real name was Quentin Beck. Beck revealed he was from a
different Earth and that the creature that had attacked during
Peter's class trip to the Venetian canals was something called
an Elemental, more specifically the Water Elemental; according
to Beck, they had arrived after Thanos' first snap tore a hole
in the fabric of the universe, allowing the Elementals to slip
through and Beck to follow. He also told Peter that the
Elementals had killed his family and destroyed his universe's
Earth by attacking key points across the world, and that those
key points were the ones they were attacking now. Fury then
appealed to Peter to team up with Beck to help stop the
Elementals, though Peter was reluctant to do so and ultimately
rejected his pleas, opting to stay with his class and continue
with his field trip. Before he left, however, Fury gifted Peter
with a pair of glasses from Stark which were meant for his
successor and programmed with the E.D.I.T.H. AI, which could
effectively hack into any and all Stark tech.
Unbeknownst to Peter, Fury then covertly altered the trip's
itinerary for Prague, where the next Elemental was projected to
attack. Along the way, the bus was stopped at a rest stop where
a covert agent directed Peter to a different room where another
agent was waiting for him with a custom black stealth suit meant
to avoid arousing the suspicion Peter's friends and classmates
would have if they saw that Spider-Man had somehow followed them
to Europe. By giving him this suit, Fury left Peter with no
excuse to not help mitigate the threat. While Peter was being
given the suit, however, his classmate and rival Brad witnessed
and photographed Peter with the agent who he believed to be an
escort and plotted to show the picture to MJ to prevent the two
from getting together. Peter employed the E.D.I.T.H. glasses to
delete the photo, but not before inadvertently almost killing
Brad via a Stark drone strike.
Upon the class's arrival in Prague, Fury cajoled Peter into
working with Beck to take down the incoming Elemental and the
two of them, along with Fury and Hill, came up with a plan of
attack. Peter once again tried to back out, leading to Fury
scolding him and implying that he wasn't ready to bear Stark's
legacy and that he was squandering the potential he was given as
a hero. Peter left and hid out atop a building, where Beck
visited him and offered him some advice on being a hero. Peter
later flirted more with MJ before a show at the opera, but was
distracted when Fury contacted him to alert him to the Fire
Elemental's arrival. The monster attacked at a carnival and
Peter and Mysterio managed to stop it by working together,
during which time Beck risked his life trying to take it down.
Fury and Hill then invited Peter and Beck to Berlin to discuss
assembling a new superhero team. He then told Peter that he
would only be welcome to such a conference if Peter was ready to
embrace his legacy. This stressed Peter out and when he and Beck
went to a bar later to celebrate (though Peter only ordered
lemonade), Peter convinced himself and Beck that Stark's message
with the E.D.I.T.H. glasses meant that Peter was to choose the
next Tony Stark, not to actually be him. Believing Beck to be
more worthy of shouldering Stark's legacy, Peter bequeathed him
the glasses and returned to his trip. Later on, Peter took a
walk in the streets of Prague with MJ and worked up the nerve to
confess his feelings for her, but before he could do so, she
revealed that she had deduced his true identity as Spider-Man.
Though Peter quickly denied this, MJ showed him a piece of
debris she found in the rubble of the Fire Elemental attack,
which they then discovered was actually a projector which
displayed an image of an Elemental they hadn't seen before, the
Air Elemental; the two concluded that Beck was a fraud and had
been playing everyone the entire time. Panicked by this
revelation and realizing his massive mistake in giving Beck the
glasses, Peter confirmed that he was, in fact, Spider-Man and
warned MJ that she was likely in danger along with Ned. Peter
hurried to Berlin to inform Fury of Beck's true nature and told
him about the projector he and MJ found, but then found that
this Fury was nothing more than an illusion created by Beck, who
attacked him and wore him down with illusions; Peter was then
hit by a train. Peter survived the impact but was badly injured
and fell unconscious shortly after climbing aboard the train
car. Peter later woke up in a jail cell somewhere in the
Netherlands, but found a way to break out and got in contact
with Happy, who picked him up in a Stark jet designed for Peter.
Realizing he needed a new costume after the stealth one was
destroyed in his battle with Mysterio's illusions, Peter
discovered, with Happy's help, a machine left to him by Stark
specially designed to manufacture the Spider-Man suits. Peter
designed his own new red and black suit while Happy flew him to
London, where Beck planned to project the next Elemental,
seeking to kill MJ and anyone else who knew his secret. Once
they were over London, Peter told Happy to fly high into the sky
so Beck wouldn't see him coming, and then dove and parachuted
down into the midst of an upgraded Air Elemental, before using
upgraded gliding technology to fly through the tempest illusion,
constructed from several hundred projectors like the one MJ had
found. Peter broke through the illusion using his Spider-Sense
(which his friends and aunt referred to as the "Peter-Tingle")
and landed on the bridge, rescuing civilians and calling out
Beck to fight. After breaking through an illusion using purely
his Spider-Sense, Peter regained control of the E.D.I.T.H. AI
and used it to order all the projector drones to self-destruct,
thereby defeating the so-called Elemental. During the ensuing
battle between Beck and Peter, Beck was shot by a misfired gun
from one of his own drones and fell to the floor. As he died, he
taunted Peter before Peter quickly caught the real Beck's hand
and prevented him from shooting Peter in the head; though Beck
had been shot, the one on the floor was just another illusion.
The real Beck also appeared to die from the gunshot wound,
however. Peter and his class returned to New York safely shortly
after this, and with MJ now knowing Peter's secret, the two
began a relationship together. Peter eventually took MJ swinging
through the city, though this made her dizzy and nauseous and
she asked to never do it again. Not long after the two had
parted ways, however, J. Jonah Jameson, an executive reporter at
the Daily Bugle, came on-air with footage of the London battle
which Beck took and had doctored to make it appear as though
Spider-Man was the one who caused the chaos and ultimately
killed Beck. Jameson declared Spider-Man to be a public menace
before showing another clip in which Beck publicly revealed
Spider-Man's identity to be Peter Parker.
While his identity was being revealed, Venom and Eddie Brock
travel to his universe and see the news on a TV screen. Later
on, Venom and Brock agree to meet this universe's Spider-Man but
are stopped when they are suddenly returned to their home
universe.
Peter was swarmed immediately after this by reporters, federal
agents, and normal civilians alike, all of whom wanted a piece
of him and none of who could tell whether the friendly
neighborhood Spider-Man they thought they knew was actually an
international masked murderer. Peter scooped up MJ and fled the
scene, taking to the high rises and subway tunnels alike to make
a beeline back to his and May's apartment, whereupon he
attempted in vain to hide the fact that Beck had revealed his
identity to everyone with Internet access. He was soon
confronted by federal agents of the Department of Damage
Control, who arrested him, May, MJ, and Ned and brought them in
for questioning, thoroughly believing Peter to be behind
Mysterio's murder. While many of these charges had no
substantial evidence to them, as was assured to the Parkers by
their lawyer, Matt Murdock, it put Peter and his friends on the
map in the worst of ways, making them into the subject of
controversy in their senior year of high school and causing them
all to get rejected from the colleges to which they applied.
Desperate to reverse the effects that Mysterio's scheme had on
his life, Peter went to seek the help of Doctor Stephen Strange
in hopes that he could use the Time Stone to make it so it had
never happened, though Strange, who had been stripped of his
title of Sorcerer Supreme in the five years of his absence due
to Thanos' plot, lamented that he couldn't do that because he no
longer had the stone, since the one belonging to their universe
had been destroyed by Thanos and the one used by Bruce Banner
and Tony Stark had been returned to its proper place in the
timeline. He did, however, have the idea to erase the memories
of everyone on the planet that Peter was Spider-Man, to which
Peter eagerly agreed, despite Wong's warnings of the dangers of
that spell. Nonetheless, Strange took Peter to cast the spell,
but after realizing just how universal the effects would be,
Peter began to tamper with the spell himself, making it so that
MJ would remember their relationship and his being Spider-Man.
Unsatisified, he added that Ned and May should remember too, and
Happy as well, until finally the spell destablized so much that
it opened several rifts in the fabric of the universe, though
Strange swiftly stitched these shut and contained the corrupted
spell within a magical artifact. After realizing that he hadn't
so much as tried to plead his case to the admissions officer for
M.I.T., Strange kicked Peter out of the Sanctum Sanctorum. Peter
heeded Strange's advice and tracked down the M.I.T. admissions
officer who was just leaving town after a New York City
admissions mixer and attempted to talk to her about MJ's and
Ned's applications, more concerned for them due to their
peripheral involvement in his vigilantism than for himself, but
was warned by his spider sense of some kind of impending danger.
After seeing that the highway ahead was being torn to pieces by
some unseen individual, Peter donned his Iron Spider armor and
warned the officer to flee before they were attacked by a man
with four mechanical arms, who seemed to recognize Spider-Man
and demanded that he tell him where his machine was, despite
Peter knowing nothing about who he was or what he was talking
about. Believing his foe was playing games with him, the man
attacked Peter and attempted to kill him, throwing the
admissions officer's car off the bridge in the process. Peter
saved her from imminent death but was forced to leave her car
hanging when his attacker pinned him against the overpass
support and tore apart his suit, integrating it into his own
arms. He next attempted to run Peter through with a spike on one
of his arms, but the suit defended him by using nanites from his
mask to protect his torso, revealing his face to his attacker,
who bewilderedly stated that he was not, in fact, Peter Parker.
Unbeknownst to him, however, the man's integration of Peter's
suit had allowed Peter to take control of the limbs and use them
to save himself and the admissions officer, bringing them both
to safety once more on the bridge. The grateful admissions
officer told Peter she would reconsider all three applications
before promptly leaving the scene, but Peter's spider-sense
warned him of an even greater danger approaching, which
manifested in the form of a green-armored man with a creepy
elf-like mask appearing on a glider while dropping bombs. The
man he had just captured identified him confusedly as "Osborn"
before they were transported back to the Sanctum Sanctorum by
Strange, where the man with the arms was imprisoned in a magical
cell and Peter was startled by a reptilian monster leaping from
the shadows of his own cell to try and attack him. Strange
explained to Peter that after he had meddled with the memory
erasure spell, it had opened a rift in space and time which
allowed individuals from across the multiverse who knew about
Peter Parker's identity as Spider-Man to leak into their own
universe, including the two already in the Sanctum, who
identified themselves as Otto Octavius and Curt Connors,
respectively. After Strange enchanted one of Peter's gauntlets
from his Iron Spider armor to be able to capture the remaining
multiversal "visitors," Octavius identified the other man they
had seen on the bridge as one Norman Osborn, warning Peter that
he was running off into the night to fight ghosts, as the Norman
he knew was long dead. Peter, disturbed by this, went to go and
capture the other individuals he had been tipped off about with
the help of MJ and Ned, operating out of the Sanctum's basement.
He encountered a man made of electricity and another of sand.
The "Sandman," recognizing Peter as his own version of
Spider-Man, showed up to help him, and assisted him in capturing
the electrical man after he became apparently hostile. After
unmasking himself, however, the Sandman saw that this Peter was
not the one he recognized, and became distrustful of and hostile
toward his former ally, causing Peter to have to capture him,
too. Peter then stayed behind overnight to fix some of the
damage his battle with the electrical man had caused, not
wanting his reputation to be tarnished further as a vandal.
As dawn broke, Peter was informed that a man matching the
description of Norman Osborn had been picked up by the
F.E.A.S.T. shelter where May was working. Believing her to be in
mortal danger, Peter rushed there, only to find a seemingly
entirely normal, however depressed, Osborn being fed by May.
Peter took him back to the Sanctum where all the other prisoners
were being held, but not before talking with May about the
responsibility he had to help them if he can instead of simply
sending them home. Back at the Sanctum, the electrical man
introduced himself as Max Dillon, while the Sandman called
himself Flint Marko. Strange revealed his intention to send all
of the multiversal trespassers back to their respective
realities, but they pleaded with him, stating that they would
all die if they were sent back, as they couldn't remember
anything from their worlds after what they perceived to be death
of some kind. Strange confirmed that the majority of them die
during or after a fight with their respective Spider-Men,
sending them into a frenzy as the sorcerer moved to finalize the
reversal of his spell which would send them home. Recalling
May's words about his responsibility and reluctant to send them
home to their fates, Peter stole the artifact Strange was using
to contain the corrupted spell, making off with it before being
captured and pushed out of his physical form by Strange. After
managing to retake control of his body, Peter fled the sorcerer
once again, almost being captured multiple times as his pursuer
opened the Mirror Dimension around him, until Peter used his
knowledge of geometry to manipulate the dimension to his
advantage, ensnaring Strange in a trap of his webs and stealing
the box and Strange's sling ring before stranding him there.
Peter then took the displaced individuals to Happy Hogan's
apartment, where he and May had been staying temporarily,
devising various solutions to cure them of their ailments and
abilities using Stark Tech entrusted to him after Stark's death.
He successfully reverted Doc Ock to Doctor Otto Octavius, giving
him control of his mind and arms once more. He moved to do the
same for Dillon, Marko, and Osborn, but was thwarted when his
spider-sense warned him that Osborn's Goblin persona had taken
over. He subdued the would-be attacker with his webs but was
then attacked by Dillon, who removed his cure device after being
manipulated by the Goblin into believing it would kill him and
immediately moved to steal the Stark arc reactor that was
powering the device Peter had used to create the cures, blasting
Octavius and letting the others flee. Goblin got free and began
to attack Peter after May had fled with the remaining cures and
a long and painful battle between the two ensued, with the
Goblin beating Peter relentlessly until they reached ground
floor. May attempted to inject him with the cure Norman had
made, but it was flawed and had no effect. The Goblin then told
Peter that no good deed went unpunished, proceeding to call in
his glider, which struck May and left her helpless on the
ground. Though Peter managed to deflect the bomb Goblin threw
with the intention of killing her, he could not save her from
the wounds she had received from being impaled by the glider,
and his aunt died in his arms as he was shot at by armed agents
moving to arrest him.
Peter was forced to flee and chose to hide out atop his high
school where he could be alone. It was here that MJ and Ned
found him and he broke down as they hugged him, stating that he
didn't know what to do and that he didn't feel he could save
anyone. The two then introduced him to two people they thought
he should see, those being his own variants from the universes
of the villains he had been attempting to cure, the Peter Parker
of Electro's and Lizard's universe and the Peter Parker of
Goblin's, Sandman's, and Ock's universe. Both told him that
they, too, had lost people they loved; both had lost their Uncle
Ben like him and one had lost the love of his life after he
failed to save her, and the pain had made them vengeful. In
spite of this, however, they had been told the same words May
had passed on to Peter before her death, that his great power
meant he had a great responsibility to help those who couldn't
help themselves. Their words uplifted Peter, and they began to
engineer a plan to take down the villains.
The first step was to break into the lab in the high school and
use their collective intellect to reengineer the cures Peter had
initially created. Here, they were also awed by one of the
Parkers' ability to generate web fluid biologically, without
need for mechanical web-shooters like the other two. One of the
variant Peters also told the other one not to give up on his
life as Peter Parker, and that there was more to it than just
being Spider-Man, as this Peter had devoted most of his life to
being Spider-Man after losing his Gwen Stacy, but had yet to
meet his counterpart of MJ like the other two. After this, Ned,
who had used Strange's sling ring to bring the other two Parkers
there and could now shakily open gateways like Strange could,
opened a gateway to the Statue of Liberty. Peter called in to
the Daily Bugle to share his role in bringing the multiversal
villains to their universe, using the call as a ruse to lure
them all to him and his variants at the Statue. This worked
incredibly well, with all five villains quickly showing up to
steal the box Peter himself had taken from Strange. The three
Spider-Men attempted to fight in tandem and cure the villains
but found themselves distracted by different villains and
getting in each others' ways. After Sandman caused a sandstorm
around the Statue, the three regrouped and the two variants
confessed that they had never fought in a team before, but Peter
reassured them that he had after fighting with the Avengers, and
instructed them to, as a group, target one at a time. After
this, the three worked together cohesively, swinging off of each
other and giving each what the other needed in battle. Like
this, they were able to cure Sandman and Lizard before Electro
almost killed his counterpart variant of Spider-Man as he had
intended to do years prior, but was interrupted by Octavius, who
had seemingly returned to being evil after he grabbed and choked
the two variant Spider-Men. This was a trick to throw Electro
off, however, and allowed Octavius to administer Dillon's cure
to him.
It wasn't until then that Goblin appeared, bombing the Statue of
Liberty and causing it to begin to fall apart. Octavius
attempted to stop him himself, but had one of his arms severed
before Peter managed to relieve the Goblin of his glider,
rendering him flightless on a large piece of debris from the
Statue designed to look like Captain America's Shield. Here,
Goblin taunted Peter for being too weak to cure him or even send
him home to die, to which Peter responded that he just wanted to
kill Goblin himself. Peter then savagely beat up Goblin, not
relenting until he was incapacitated and only then did he pick
up the villain's glider in order to impale him on it. However,
he was stopped from going through with this by his variant
counterpart from the Goblin's universe, who understood what it
would do to Peter in the long run. This variant was promptly
non-fatally stabbed in the back by an unrepentant Goblin, who
teased Peter once again, this time about being the one to kill
May: the Goblin was the one who struck the blow but she was only
in a dangerous situation because of her connection to
Spider-Man. The third Spider-Man then threw Peter the revised
Goblin antiserum, which Peter vengefully plunged into Goblin's
neck, successfully reverting him permanently to a remorseful
Norman Osborn.
After this, as the universe around them started to tear open as
a result of the spell breaking free of its containment, Peter
approached Strange, who had been accidentally freed by Ned and
MJ minutes earlier, and told him that if it was the only way to
reverse what was happening, then he should complete the spell as
he had intended to the first time. Strange refused, warning
Peter that everyone would forget about him being Spider-Man, but
that they would also forget who Peter Parker was to them, what
he meant to them, and what they had been through together. His
relationship with MJ would be erased, as would his friendship
with Ned, his enrollment in school, and his relationship to the
Avengers, including Strange. Peter acknowledged this, stating
that it was what had to be done, and ordered Strange to complete
the spell. Strange advised him to say his goodbyes while he
could, and Peter did so, vowing to MJ and Ned that he would find
them again and remind them of what they had all been through
together, before kissing MJ goodbye and doing one final secret
handshake with Ned. From here, he returned to the city, watching
as Octavius, Osborn, Marko, Dillon, Connors, and the two other
Parkers returned to their universes and the breaches in reality
were closed.
Sometime shortly thereafter, Peter, with his identity as
Spider-Man a secret once more, sought out MJ in the coffee shop
and diner where she worked, only for her to stare right through
him as another random customer and greet Ned with a smile as he
walked in. Despite his plans and promise to remind the two of
who he was, Peter decided against it, after seeing their
happiness and planning to go to M.I.T., as he comes to believe
that they're better off without him and his problems in their
lives. Peter then ordered a coffee as he wished MJ well and
left. He visited May's grave and promised to carry on doing what
she had taught him to do, and also held a brief conversation
with Happy, who was also visting the grave site but was
oblivious to who Peter was. He began renting out a cramped and
dingy studio apartment, where he moved in with a fresh lease on
life, planning to finish out his GED, since his high school
transcript had been erased, and readying himself to resume life
as Spider-Man with an all-new red and blue suit. However,
believing himself to be dangerous to those around him, Peter
decided to distance himself from his allies and fellow
superheroes in order to protect them.
