["You're a bit late..."]

"Can't be everywhere at once."

["Little text might've been nice."]

"I was gone less than 2 hours, what happened?"

["Okay, okay, okay– I know what it looks like but the good news is..."]

"Oh here we go..."

["The multiverse didn't collapse!"]

"Oh cool!"

["Eh, a little touch and go... But it worked out."]

"So did you finish the goober?"

["It's not a goober it's a gizmo!"]

"You always have to call me out? It just really frustrates me... Really bums me out..."

["Don't get too excited Miguel, it's just a prototype."]

"Not excited."

["You could be the very first person to make an autonomous multiverse jump, or the last..."]

"Okay so we're just gonna roll the dice on this one?"

["Where do you wanna go first?"]

"Let's start at the very beginning one last time... Earth-616."

SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN' POV:
Location: Earth-12131

I should never have found myself here. The year 2099—a future rife with chaos and technology far beyond even my understanding. When I, Otto Octavius, the Superior Spider-Man, first attempted to return to my home dimension, I did not anticipate that my journey through the web of realities would take such a harrowing turn. My calculations were precise, my intellect unmatched, yet the multiverse is a fickle beast, and it seems even I am not immune to its whims.

The first alternate reality I stumbled upon was a scene out of a nightmare. Bodies. Everywhere. Spider-Men of all shapes and sizes, from different dimensions, all lying lifeless, their eyes dull, their bodies twisted in unnatural poses. And each of them... punctured. Two holes. The same in every corpse, as if marked by some sick ritualistic signature. The sight alone would have unnerved a lesser mind, but for me, it was a challenge. A mystery begging to be solved. Who could have done this? What kind of force could hunt down multiple Spider-Men across realities and leave them like discarded insects?

I jumped from world to world, each more horrifying than the last, each filled with the same corpses, the same wounds. My mind raced. I knew the danger of doppelgänger anomalies, but this? This was systematic extermination. This was murder on a scale that defied comprehension. But no clues. No evidence, save for those two damn holes.
