“*Wow. String theory... Multidimensional reality... And matter displacement. All real?*”
―Spider-Man to Michelle Jones and Ned Leedssrc
One day, Spider-Man appeared suddenly in a different version of New York City. Using his scientific knowledge of string theory and the Multiverse, he deduced that he was in another universe. As Spider-Man navigated the new place, an Inter-Dimensional Portal to the Leeds Residence opened in front of him, where he saw Ned Leeds and Michelle Jones calling out for their universe's Peter Parker.

 File:Amazing Spider-Man.png
Spider-Man went through the portal completely suited up, frightening Leeds' grandmother. As he unmasked, Spider-Man introduced himself as the Peter Parker of his universe. He then asked if the Multiverse was real, realizing that he had been right in his studies. Leeds mentioned magic and Spider-Man asked if magic existed as well, in which Jones tried to change the subject.

 File:Sticking to the ceiling.png
Still not convinced that he was really Spider-Man, Jones asked him to prove it. Spider-Man crawled on the ceiling to help Leeds' grandmother remove cobwebs in the corner, causing Jones and Leeds to realize that they had summoned an entirely different version of Spider-Man.

 File:Spider-Man meets Peter Parker.png
Jones urged Leeds to continue searching for their Peter Parker by opening another portal. Instead, they summoned another alternate Peter Parker, who was much older. Spider-Man confronted his older counterpart, who realized that he was not Leeds' and Jones' Parker, and shot a web at him, only for the older Parker to shoot a web back and perform a flip, proving that he was another Spider-Man.

 File:Amazing Spider-Man (2024).png
The older Parker explained that he had seen Leeds and Jones on the news and sensed that their universe's Peter Parker needed help. As the older Parker urged Leeds and Jones to think of where their friend would go to clear his mind, Spider-Man admitted that for him, it was the Empire State Building because of the view, while the older Parker preferred the Chrysler Building.

 File:Older Peter Parkers.png
Jones and Leeds deduced where their Parker would be and brought them to the Midtown School of Science and Technology, where they found their Parker on top of the roof, crying and in despair over the death of his aunt May. Spider-Man attempted to console his younger alternate self, explaining that he was familiar with loss, but the native Spider-Man stopped him, too distraught over his own mistakes to listen or care. The native Spider-Man confessed that he no longer wished to save anyone and simply wanted them to return to their universes.

 File:Peter talks about Gwen.png
Before the younger Spider-Man could use the Macchina di Kadavus to send them home, the older Parker explained that he lost his uncle Ben Parker because of his own actions and witnessing the death of Ben's supposed killer didn't ease the pain. In conjunction, to help his younger alternate self cope and realize that he was not alone, Spider-Man confessed his own guilt of not being able to save his girlfriend, Gwen Stacy, admitting how her death made him rageful, bitter, and violent. Both Spider-Man and his older counterpart explained to the younger Spider-Man that they did not want him to lead a path of darkness like them, encouraging him to honor his aunt’s final wish by curing all the universe-displaced people.

 File:Peter One Two Three.jpg
After managing to convince his alternate self, the group decided to retreat to one of Midtown’s laboratory rooms in order to engineer cures for their past enemies. Parker decided to develop Lizard' anti-serum, having made one before, while his older counterpart created the one for Green Goblin. The Parkers, Jones, and Leeds together engineered cures for Electro, Green Goblin, Lizard, and Sandman, and then devised a plan to bring their adversaries all to one spot using the Macchina as a lure.

 File:Peter Parker and Spider-Man.png
Before leaving, Parker asked his oldest counterpart if he had his suit, which he did underneath his civilian clothes. He was then amazed to see he can shoot organic webs and wondered how that was possible.

#### Battle at Liberty Island

 File:Amazing Spider-Man (NWH).png
“*What the hell is going on out there?! I keep yelling at you, Peter-Two, Peter-Two!"
"No, but I thought you were Peter-Two."
"Stop arguing, both of you, and listen to Peter-One! Look, we're clearly not very good at this!*”
―Spider-Man, Spider-Man, and Spider-Mansrc
Spider-Man and his counterparts then travelled to the Statue of Liberty, using an Inter-Dimensional Portal opened by Ned Leeds. While the native Spider-Man deliberately broadcast their location, Spider-Man noticed that the older Spider-Man had back issues and shared that he did too.

 File:Spider-Man Variants.png
He then asked if he could crack it, which the older Spider-Man agreed too. cracked the older Spider-Man's back to ease his back pain, relating to what he was feeling.

 File:The Amazing Spider-Man (2024).png
With time to spare, Spider-Man then asked how the older Spider-Man was able to naturally shoot webs without the need for Web-Shooters. As the native Spider-Man asked what kind of villains they had faced besides the current ones, the older Spider-Man discussed having fought a black symbiote. The native Spider-Man then told them about fighting a purple alien in space and on Earth, much to both of their surprises. Spider-Man expressed a desire to fight aliens of his own, feeling that he was "lame" for fighting men like the Rhino, prompting the other Spider-Men to assure him that he was amazing in his own way.

 File:ASM.png
The three Spider-Men suddenly sensed that Electro had arrived, followed by Lizard and Sandman. Spider-Man faced Lizard and attempted to obtain the cure from the native Spider-Man but failed to coordinate well with his counterparts, leading to several early setbacks.

 File:Peter One Two Three.png
As they regrouped, Spider-Man and the older Spider-Man both announced that they had never worked as a team and didn't know how. The native Spider-Man took command due to his experience with the Avengers, although Spider-Man and the older were unaware of what the Avengers were as they didn't exist in their home universes, and thought they were a band name.

 File:The Three Spider-Men.jpg
The native Spider-Man urged them to trust their Spider-Sense, and the three decided to coordinate their attacks by focusing on one villain at a time, as well as naming each other, by Peter-One, Peter-Two, and Peter-Three. Spider-Man was listed as Peter-Three. The group then swung together as Spider-Men with a new spirit of teamwork. Spider-Man attacked Lizard, while Peter-Two attacked Sandman, and Peter-One attacked Electro.

 File:Lizard - Battle at Liberty Island.jpg
Returning to battle, Spider-Man retrieved Sandman's cure, passing it on to Peter-1 to pass off to Peter-2 while he continued to fight off against Lizard on his own, eventually webbing him up with his web fluid while he decided to descend at the top of the Statue towards Electro, with his cure in hopes of curing him.

 File:Spider-Man and Amazing Spider-Man.jpg
Upon reaching at the top of the Statue, Spider-Man and the older one attempted to steal the Arc Reactor from Electro but were overwhelmed by his electricity powers. They were saved by Otto Octavius, who swapped the Arc Reactor with the cure, depriving Electro of his powers and his insanity.

 File:The Amazing Spider-Man.png
Spider-Man then spoke with Electro, who had been returned to his normal self as Dillon, who lamented that he would return to being a nobody as no one recognised him in their universe. However, Spider-Man assured Dillon that he never was a nobody in their universe and he had noticed him. Dillon then told Spider-Man that he had hoped he had been black though, wondering if there was a black Spider-Man out there, in which Spider-Man agreed could be possible.

 File:Amazing Spider-Sense.png
Afterwards, Doctor Strange arrived and was introduced to Spider-Man and the older Spider-Man by the native Spider-Man. Before they could talk further, Green Goblin suddenly appeared, attacking them with Razor Bats, and stealing the Macchina di Kadavus from Strange. When Strange retrieved the Macchina, all Spider-Men noticed a Pumpkin Bomb inside it and became alarmed. It detonated, destroying the Macchina and unleashing the unstable spell, which caused a dimensional rift in the Multiverse to open.

 File:Peter Parker & MJ.png
This action also toppled the Statue, causing Michelle Jones to fall off the scaffolding. When the native Spider-Man leaped to catch her, Goblin knocked him away, forcing a shocked Spider-Man to jump down and save her himself. Redeemed for his failure to save Gwen Stacy when she died in a similar way, he became emotional but soon composed himself.

#### Returning to His Universe

 File:Peter Two & Peter Three.png
As dawn broke, Spider-Man watched in concern as the younger Spider-Man faced off against Green Goblin and violently beat him up. Before the native Spider-Man could deal the fatal blow, however, the older Spider-Man intervened but was promptly stabbed by Goblin. As the older Spider-Man managed to survive, Spider-Man threw the native Spider-Man the cure, which the native Spider-Man injected Goblin with, restoring his sanity as Norman Osborn and vanquishing his Goblin alter ego.

 File:Three Spider-Men Hug.jpg
Spider-Man tended to his older counterpart, who was not mortally injured as he had been stabbed before, as the younger Spider-Man helped Doctor Strange fix the spell by modifying it so that the universe would no longer remember him. The three Spider-Men embraced and exchanged goodbyes.

 File:Amazing Spider-Man returns to his universe.png
Strange then cast the spell, returning all the universe-displaced to their home universes with him putting a peace sign up to his older counterpart before departure.

## Personality

“*I couldn't save her. I'm never going to be able to forgive myself for that. But I carried on, tried to... tried to keep going. Tried to keep being that... that friendly neighborhood Spider-Man, because I know that's what she would've wanted, but... at some point I just... I stopped pulling my punches. I got rageful. I got bitter. I just don't want you, to end up like... like me.*”
―Spider-Man to Spider-Mansrc
Following the death of Gwen Stacy, this Peter Parker carried on for a while as Spider-Man. However, Parker later found himself bitter and anguished. This was further seen when he was upset to hear that he hasn't battled some of the enemies like his other selves and called himself lame. Despite his former more aggressive ways of treating his enemies, he is still good at heart, and wanted to find the younger Peter Parker in order to stop him from turning out like he did. He also contains a sense of humor and overall kind demeanor, frequently making jokes with others and even helping an alternate Spider-Man pop his back into place before the battle.

Parker does seem to contain a rebellious nature, as upon being discovered by Ned Leeds and Michelle Jones, he was refusing initially to crawl around on the ceiling to prove he is Peter Parker as he believes that hanging from it was good enough, though he does eventually relent after Leeds' grandmother asks him to clean some cobwebs out of the ceiling since he was already up there.

Parker quickly developed a strong bond with the other Spider-Men, as he realized that his younger counterpart needs his help, after his older counterpart explained to him, Leeds and Jones that he's been trying to find the latter ever since he arrived in the other universe. Also, Peter sees his counterparts as brothers, even telling them that he loves them before the final battle. In addition, Peter jumped to his younger self defenses when Doctor Strange was scolding the latter for trapping him at the Grand Canyon in the mirror dimension for twelve hours. He even showed great concern for his older counterpart when he got stabbed in the back by Green Goblin as he rushed to his side immediately, after giving his younger counterpart the cure for Osborn.

Despite his best attempts to put on a positive front, Parker is pessimistic and is hurting very much inside following Stacy's death, having a low opinion of himself, viewing himself as inferior to his counterparts. Upon learning that his counterparts have fought aliens, Parker was envious of them as he hasn't fought an alien, lamenting that the craziest guy he ever fought was Rhino. This attitude changed, however, after the Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man comforts him, reassuring him that he was not only a great Spider-Man, but an Amazing one who needed to stop beating himself up so much.

After saving Jones from falling to her death, Parker instantly breaks down and begins crying, having given himself much needed closure and redemption for Stacy's death. Following the end of the battle, Parker is noticeably happier and excited like his younger counterpart, openly embracing his counterparts before being sent back to his universe.

On another note, he shares his counterpart's intelligence such as having a love of science and biology, as when he learned of the older Spider-Man's organic webbing, instead of being disgusted, he was curious how it worked and was examining the Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man's arm even asking him how it worked later on. He was also pleased to hear the history about the multiverse was accurate and correctly deduced he was in another world. In addition, he was surprised that his younger self managed to make cures for the villains and shares the same wisdom as his other experienced counterpart by sharing the loss of his loved one.

Upon meeting Michelle Jones and Ned Leeds, he said that his tingle only triggers if something could actually hurt him or others near-by, as it didn't trigger off when a piece of bread was thrown at him, similar to his younger counterpart's Spider-Sense as he also did not trigger when a banana was thrown at him by May Parker.
	+ **Regenerative Healing Factor**: As a result of the spider bite, Spider-Man regenerates from his injuries faster and more extensively than a normal human.
