Superior Spider-Man #32

[cyberghostface]

This takes place during the events of #19 when Horizon Labs was lost in a temporal explosion and Otto went missing for 24 hours. Here, we find out he was stranded in the year 2099. He goes to work at finding his way back.



Otto ends up as opposed to 'our' universe several ones where their Spider-Man has been murdered by something from an outside dimension.

We go to the universe of Spider-Man: India where Pavitr Prabhakar is facing off against the perpetrator (he's called 'Karn' in the solicitations but I think he's either Morlun or someone connected to him) when Otto comes to the rescue.



Otto tells Pavitr that he's embarked on a quest to raise an army of Spider-Men against this creature. Pavitr tells him that he's honored to be the first in what will be a large band of warriors.

I hope there will be some minor "Odd that our masks are all so similar" jokes.

[coldfury]

Is that a... Spider Monkey?

[michaelhealy]

Presumably the Spider-Monkey from the Marvel Apes universe.

[shadowpsykie]

it was bound to happen

[icon_uk]

Okay, I'm in, this looks fun.

[nyadnar17]

Man does it. I had forgot how much I liked SpOck

[drtechnobabel]

Same here. When he's not trying to be Peter, SpOck is actually pretty entertaining to read, although I see he's taken some lessons in AI design from Vlad Plasmius.

[icon_uk]

I think that that AI is (or is similar to) the Lyla AI that Miguel used in 2099 to run his apartment/schedules etc. back in the original run, she could adopt any appearance Miggy chose (As a little in-joke one of the variants was a grandmotherly type... or more specifically an Aunt May type, whose smotthering, if wholesome, approach Miggy found to be far too offputting.

[scelestus]

I really missed Otto...

[drtechnobabel]

I recognize all of these except for the female Spider-Man. Anyone know who she's supposed to be?

[chrisdv]

Peter's granddaughter/Clint Barton's daughter from Old Man Logan.

[espanolbot]

If I remember correctly, she's the Spidergirl from Old Man Logan, who is the grand daughter of Peter and the daughter of Hawkeye (yes, Hawkeye had sex with Peter's kid at some point in the next forty or so years. Blame Mark Millar), and technically is the third Kingpin, having killed the previous one to claim his territory for herself.

She actually tried to kill her dad in order to cement her status as the new warlord in her section of the former United States, but Logan rescued him with the Spider-Car.

Of what little we see her... she's actually a pretty good villain. She's kind of like what Peter would be like if he were a villain and not completely insufferable, and is willing to use her spider-strength to gruesomely murder folk who get in her way.

[drtechnobabel]

Oh, cool. Thanks for the explanation you two.

[arilou_skiff]

Huh, I thought it looked like the What-if costume from What if Betty Brant became Spider-woman...

[thehood]

No, but Spider-Betty is showing up in Spider-Verse too.

[pwiggins]

Actually she goes by the moniker "Spider-Bitch". Really. Millar remains on the cutting edge as usual. Although part of me is morbidly curious to see how she and Mayday would react to each other if they met up during Spider-Verse. Methinks Mayday would NOT be impressed...

[thehood]

She's referred as Spider-Girl in Spider-Verse though.

And i think May would be mo0re weirded out about meeting her alternate universe niece than unimpressed.

[shadowpsykie]

huh, so it's OTTO (heh his name in caps looks like headlights... which is ironic on many levels) that assembles the spider-people... beings....

[chrisdv]

Well, of course.

Did you expect Slott to have anyone other than his pet character do it?

[thehood]

No, Otto is assembling the Anti-Heroic/villainous Spider-Men.

All the Spider-Folk in the last image are those that have killed, even Spider-Monkey.

The only exception is Spider-Man India.

[thehood]

Or at least he's the one that assembles the anti-heroic Spider-Men.

Aside from Spider-Man India, the others have killed before.

[halloweenjack]

No Mayday? *sigh*

[cyberghostface]

She's showing up in ASM first.

[thehood]

Chill, this is just the start. Mayday was already confirmed for Spider-Verse.

[writeofway]

I'm not truly on board until I see Spider-Ham. It probably won't happen or if it does, he'll be killed unceremoniously.

[thehood]

Spider-Ham was one of the first alternate Spider-Men that was confirmed for this event actually.

[akodo_rokku]

This is cool, but it's not SUPAIDAAMAN, AN EMISSARY FROM HELL!

(He's in this event though. Hopefully he brings Leopardon.)

[silverzeo]

Oh wow, it's like that finale to the 90s Spider-Man animated show, with different Spider-Men from different universes to stop one that would cause a chain reaction of the destruction of the multiverse.... didn't they try to do something like that with Judas Priest? ... and no Spider-Girl?

[cyberghostface]

She's showing up later.
