00:00Alright then, evildoers, you better look out because Captain Spider is coming.
00:05Quote, Captain Spider, what if Volume 1, Issue 7, what if someone else besides Spider-Man had been bitten by the radioactive spider?
00:15Utah, the Watcher recounts how Peter Parker became Spider-Man in preparation for alternative versions of the story.
00:22Peter Parker, a high school student, gained spider-like abilities after being bitten by a radioactive spider during a science experiment.
00:30The bite grants him an enhanced strength, agility, and ability to cling to wolves.
00:35After initially using his powers for personal gain, Peter learns that a valuable lesson, that with great power comes great responsibility.
00:44When his Uncle Ben is tragically killed, this mantra becomes a guiding principle for Spider-Man throughout his superhero career.
00:51Peter designs a costume and web shooters to swing between buildings, and he begins fighting crime as the mass vigilante Spider-Man.
01:01Earth 78127, Flash Thompson is bitten by a spider instead of Peter Parker.
01:07Peter notices the spider takes it with him to run some tests.
01:11Flash Thompson tells the girls, there's something exploding inside me, like some kind of power or something.
01:17However, both Flash and the two girls are not paying attention to his words as a car speeds his way.
01:24The irresponsible driver shows no intention of slowing down.
01:28Flash Thompson shoves the car aside, simultaneously pushing his girlfriends out of harm's way.
01:33He then lifts the driver, who pleads to be put down.
01:36Flash Thompson senses that something has changed.
01:39Flash thinks that's a good question, and one I can't answer.
01:42Maybe that spider bite had something to do with it, and that radioactivity.
01:46Perhaps that bookworm, Peter Parker, can explain it to me sometime.
01:50Meanwhile, Flash notices professional wrestling matches that offer $100 to anyone who can last three minutes with Crusher Hogan.
01:59Flash challenges Hogan, who exudes confidence in his ability to defeat Flash.
02:03However, to everyone's surprise, Flash picks Crusher Hogan over his head and slams him to the ground.
02:10Intoxicated with his newfound power, Flash loses control, grabbing Crusher by the neck and ultimately cracking it.
02:16Crusher drops limply to the floor, his neck broken and lifeless.
02:20Realizing the severity of the situation, the promoter decides to call the cops.
02:24Due to the unfortunate death, Flash, who never intended to kill Crusher, only sought the money and wanted to impress the girls.
02:31Unaware of his own strength resulting from the radioactivity spider bite, Flash struggles with the guilt of unintentionally taking a light.
02:38The cops attempt to arrest Flash, but his newfound enhanced powers prove too formidable for them to control.
02:45Seizing the opportunity, Flash evades capture by leaping out of a window.
02:49Within moments, the two police officers collect their wits, but are left clueless about Flash's whereabouts.
02:56Their attention was focused downward, not upward, as Flash skillfully climbs surfaces like a human spider.
03:03Flash realizes that the spider bite has granted him enhanced strength and speed, but he grapples with the dilemma of his altered life.
03:10Unable to return to a normal existence due to being wanted for manslaughter and assaulting the police,
03:16he contemplates the possibilities of what he can achieve with his newfound powers.
03:21Inspired by a newfound purpose, Flash decides to embrace the idea of becoming a costume hero.
03:28Remember he does, and after quietly dropping through a skylight.
03:32Sure, why not?
03:33As a kid, I often fantasize about being a comic book superhero.
03:37And now, with my powers and a few modifications in these threads, I can really be one.
03:43Thus, upon completion, a flamboyant costume.
03:46Not bad if I do say so myself.
03:48Got to admit that Kate makes it.
03:50All right then, evildoers, you better look out, because Captain Spider is coming.
03:54Indeed, the name of Captain Spider has soon spoken the fear of members of New York's underworld,
04:00as he lashes out viciously against an ever-growing number of supervillains.
04:04This wipes you out, chameleon, and now that I'm through batting you around,
04:08the fuzz can come and scrape up what's left.
04:11Whoa, have to pull these punches.
04:12Don't want another death on my hands.
04:14The chameleon, the so-called terrible tinkerer,
04:17and how easily they fall to the superpower fist of Captain Spider,
04:21while another youth and envious Peter Parker can only observe his news making heroics from the sidelines.
04:29Captain Spider notices a robbery in progress and swiftly takes action,
04:33defeating the robbers with speed and efficiency.
04:36Initially, Captain Spider is so focused on defeating his adversaries
04:40that he fails to notice the distant sound of wings thrashing furiously in the late-night breeze.
04:46Captain Spider interrogates the thieves when suddenly the vulture strikes him on the head,
04:50with his foot seizing the bird's statue.
04:53The vulture asserts his belief that he deserves the bird artifact,
04:56and expresses gratitude to Captain Spider for dealing with the thieves.
05:00However, Captain Spider insists on settling the matter through a physical confrontation,
05:05throwing a punch.
05:06The vulture takes to the sky,
05:07and Captain Spider utilizes his super-strength endeavors to keep the airborne adversary grounded.
05:14Great also is the might of the vulture.
05:16Tenoid wings as their beating lifts to costume forms high above New York streets.
05:22Vulture, what are you doing?
05:23You get us both killed.
05:24Not us, my dear captain.
05:26You forgot.
05:26The sky is the vulture's domain.
05:29You are indeed a fool, Captain, getting involved in something out of your league.
05:33Hopefully, your death will be an example to others of your like.
05:37Then I've got to hang on with all my super-strength.
05:39And if I'm careful, I should be able to pull this off.
05:42But looks like he's ready to swing.
05:44Ooh, caught his punch.
05:45Okay, that gives me an edge.
05:46Now I'll just keep clutching with my right,
05:48while I pack my left into a nice spider-strong fist end.
05:52But before Captain Spider can swing, the vulture moves.
05:56You didn't think a man of my age could hit so hard, you grandstanding idiot.
06:00But then I possess a weapon, one of hard, cold stone.
06:04Ironic, isn't it, Captain, that the very artifact you tried to save will be the instrument of your death?
06:10For several moments, Captain Spider, unaware of his plight,
06:13then he is recuperative powers pumping his eyes blink open to stare in horror as he realizes his inevitable fate.
06:20Not even his spider-spawn strength can save him from the doom, now rushing upon him from below.
06:26With that, this hero have devised a spiderweb to catch the tenuous to a building wall,
06:31as did another Masked Avenger on another Earth who, on this world, is simply Peter Parker.
06:37Oh lord, he'll be killed.
06:39But it's a good thing I was watching Captain Spider tonight.
06:42There might be a chance to save him.
06:43But all the hope to save the life of a hero he worships quickly dissipates as Peter approaches the crumbling form.
06:49He's, he's not moving.
06:51Oh god, don't let him be.
06:53Have to tear off his mask.
06:54Make sure that he gets every molecule of air he can.
06:57And what?
06:58No, it's Flash Thompson butt.
06:59But at this moment, Peter Parker's not concerned with having learned his idol's identity.
07:04All that matters is the broken body does not move.
07:07So you had to play the big hero, the idol of millions, right to the end, didn't you, Flash?
07:12But this time, you were really in the big league,
07:15where it takes a lot more than being a jock with superhuman powers.
07:18In the past, young Peter Parker had been a source of desertion by Flash Thompson,
07:23but Peter seems to have forgotten all that as he gently lays to rest the hero he had so strongly admired.
07:29And he stares down at a heroic costume in the shifting lights of dawn.
07:33Thus it has ended in this existence,
07:35wherein the intervention of one person has deprived their world of a great hero
07:40and has resulted only in a grim tragedy.
07:43But at least for the present, let us abandon this plane of reality
07:46and travel the mentioned bridges to yet another in the limitless numbers of parallel Earths.
07:52Flash, not being a science wig that Parker is,
07:54never developed web fluid and is therefore unable to break his fall.
07:59He dies in an alley watched by Peter.
08:01Earth 78227, Betty Brand is present at the demonstration and is bitten by the spider.
08:07Once again, Parker discovers the spider and takes it into possession.
08:11Betty confides in Parker that she has spider powers
08:14and Parker aids her in becoming a heroine,
08:17designing a costume and building her web shooters.
08:19Betty fights crime but refuses to use her spider strength in a battle.
08:22After Peter Parker and Spider Girl subject finish their photo session,
08:26a security guard urgently screams,
08:28Stop thief! Stop him!
08:30He just made off with the payroll!
08:31Peter instructs Amazing Spider Girl,
08:33You have to go after him before he gets away.
08:35Spider Girl responds,
08:37I can't Peter, I used up all my web fluid for the pictures.
08:40A stunned security guard watches as the famous Spider Girl is unable to take action,
08:45allowing the thief to escape.
08:46The security guard confronts Spider Girl saying,
08:49What's with you sister?
08:49All you had to do was use your super strength of yours to hold him.
08:53What's the matter, girl?
08:55Was one two-bit hood a little too much for you?
08:57Spider Girl responds,
08:59I am sorry I couldn't.
09:00Peter Parker intervenes, stating,
09:02It's none of our business.
09:04Once again, events unfold in a parallel across different worlds,
09:08as stated by the narrator, the watcher.
09:10A police officer delivers the devastating news to Peter saying,
09:14Bad news, son.
09:15Your uncle has been shot, murdered.
09:17Peter reacts in shock, laming.
09:18Uncle Ben dead?
09:20No, no, it can't be.
09:21Betty Band expresses her condolences, saying,
09:24Oh, Peter, I'm sorry.
09:25Desperate for answer, Peter demands,
09:27Who did it?
09:27Who shot him?
09:28The police officer reveals,
09:29It was a burglar.
09:31Your uncle surprised him.
09:32But don't worry, lad.
09:33He is trapped.
09:34He is in the old Acme warehouse at the waterfront.
09:37We'll get him.
09:38Fueled by anger,
09:39Betty decides to go to the Acme warehouse as Spider Girl.
09:44The police officer cautions,
09:45He is in there somewhere,
09:47But he will pick us off like flies if we charge him.
09:50The thief confidently responds,
09:52All I gotta do is hold him off till the moon dies down.
09:55Then I ought to be able to slip in the dark.
09:57Spider Girl challenged him,
09:59Stating,
09:59That's pretty brave talk for a little man holding a big gun.
10:03The thief is startled and frightened by Spider Girl.
10:05In a panic, he tries to run,
10:07But he can't outrun the amazing Spider Girl.
10:10Think so, killer?
10:11Well, let me inform you then,
10:13That there's no place you can hide from me.
10:15You see, that old man you killed was somebody special.
10:18Special to a guy whom I happen to love.
10:20That's a mistake you shouldn't have made.
10:22First, let's get rid of that gun of yours.
10:24Now we'll see if you're still so tough.
10:26See if you're a big, brave criminal who took the life of an elderly man.
10:29It's just as brave against a young girl.
10:32No!
10:32Checks her punch.
10:33So not as to seriously harm him,
10:35Even so lowly a human being.
10:36But as she easily lifts the unconscious form for a better look,
10:40That face.
10:41It's now I can see that it's the guy who ran past me
10:44The night after Pete and I took those pictures.
10:46I could have stopped him, but I didn't.
10:48What she does next is expedient,
10:50And without words for her thoughts are heavy.
10:52As is the feeling of a guilt now weighing down a young woman's soul.
10:56It's him on a spider web.
10:58And there's a reason, Spider Girl.
10:59Huh?
10:59I don't care what the publisher hollers about.
11:02Anybody who did what she did,
11:04And who looks that good is okay in my book.
11:06And when a little form drops to the lawn of the parker home,
11:09Betty, I mean Spider Girl, your mask.
11:11I'm never putting it on after again, Peter.
11:14Spider Girl is dead.
11:15Huh?
11:15But why?
11:16I mean, I don't understand.
11:17Tearfully, Betty Brand explains.
11:19It's my fault that your uncle was shot.
11:21If I had stopped him when I had the chance,
11:22He'd never have been here tonight.
11:24And, and,
11:25You can't hold yourself responsible for Uncle Ben's death, Betty.
11:28You couldn't have known, but I do.
11:30And it's a responsibility I just can't handle.
11:32That just plain Betty Brand won't have to.
11:34Peter, take me home.
11:35Still weeping, Betty feels the warmth in the young man's proximity.
11:40She does not look back, not even for a moment, as he does.
11:43To that which shows a brilliant red and blue in the moonlight.
11:46Again, we have observed sameness and differences in a world which for now we must leave.
11:51Earth 78-327.
11:52John Jameson is bitten by a radioactive spider.
11:56As was the case in the previous two stories, Parker retains the spider.
12:00John's father, Joan Jameson, learns of his son's new powers and immediately starts to endorse him in his paper and encourages him to become a crime fighter.
12:09John agrees and dons a costume and a jetpack.
12:12Though this world's J. Jonah Jameson is basically the same as his counterpart on your Earth.
12:17His attitude towards superheroes has definitely undergone an understandable mutation.
12:23Yep, that's my boy, alright.
12:25Sure glad my old buddies in the space program were able to whip up this jetpack.
12:29And that bugle paid for it.
12:30This way I can still soar through the skies even though I'm not an astronaut anymore.
12:34I was afraid that as a superhero I'd miss being able to fly.
12:38But now I can do both.
12:39And this pack lets me do things that a grounded Spider Jameson could never do.
12:44And before long, thanks to his father's public relations campaign, Spider Jameson's heroic images grow.
12:51Broadcast to bring you a special bulletin.
12:53The Space Council launch into orbit today is out of control.
12:57Like Flash Thompson, he does not develop web shooters.
13:00And when the runway space capsule falls to Earth, he relies solely on his jetpack to slow its descent.
13:06Unfortunately, the pack is not strong enough to slow the capsule's fall and he is crushed beneath it.
13:11Desperately, J. Jonah Jameson pulls his son from beneath the heavy capsule.
13:15His spirit as crushed as John's broken body.
13:18Dad, my strength.
13:19It saved the astronaut inside the capsule.
13:21Saved me from dying instantly.
13:23But can't hold out much longer.
13:25Got to know one thing, Dad.
13:26Did I make you proud of me?
13:27Proud?
13:28Oh my God, John.
13:29You've made me prouder than any father who ever lived.
13:32But how?
13:33You must despise me.
13:34I, who pushed you.
13:36Drove you.
13:36If not for your my hounding, you.
13:38Don't blame yourself, Dad.
13:40My number was just up.
13:41That's all.
13:42It is a somber crowd which gathers soon afterwards in New York Central Park.
13:46As a bronze effigy paid for, the Daily Bugle is unveiled in the morning's light.
13:51To the world, Spider Jameson was a great hero.
13:54And so the multitude deeply commensurate with J. Jonah Jameson.
13:58But their loss can never equal that of this man, who once had a loyal son.
14:03Jameson's eulogy is heavy with emotion.
14:06And when his, as his finish there, is silence for nearly a minute.
14:10Before the gathering finally and reverently disperses.
14:13Well, Parker.
14:14For John, it's over.
14:15But for me, it's just the beginning.
14:16There are other superheroes like my son turning up in New York.
14:19And I'm going to use the bugle to tell the world what a great bunch of people they are.
14:23Maybe in making sure that the public accepts them despite their strange abilities and concealing masks.
14:28Maybe then I can make up a little for what I did to John.
14:31Mr. Jameson.
14:32I'm sorry, sir.
14:33Forget it, Parker.
14:34And look at the statue.
14:35I had it built not only in memory of my son, but also to serve as an inspiration to the average Joes just like you.
14:41Now, if you'll excuse me, Parker.
14:43I've got a newspaper to get to.
14:44Peter Parker does not notice Jameson as he walks away for his attention is trained upon the bronze image of the spider Jameson.
14:52Even as we depart his particular earth to return where I have shown how apparently trivial incidents can occur the course of history.
15:00And I've spoken of fate, the inevitable end towards which certain beings are in an escapable draw.
15:05And behold, then a faithful scene which occurs soon after each of these series of tragic events.
15:10A scene which in all three cases is identical and involving Peter Parker.
15:15Yes, I'm sure.
15:16Glad I saved that dead spider.
15:18Something about the spider's bite can apparently give a person's superpowers, making him like a human spider.
15:23If I could somehow isolate that something.
15:26There begins the countless analysis, the calculations.
15:29Until late one night in the home laboratory of weary Peter Parker, I've managed to extract the last vestige of the spider's venom and use it in preparation of this serum.
15:39I have no idea if this will really work, but at the risk of turning into Mr. Hyde or ending up with the world's worst bellyache, here goes.
15:46Let's face it, what a loser like Peter Parker got to lose.
15:49As he swallows the potion, Peter's insides surges with burning energy.
15:53Then, as the weird sensations cease and Peter again starts to feel normal.
15:57Parker, you hit the jackpot.
15:58You've given yourself the powers of the spider and didn't even have to get bitten.
16:02And so it happens that upon each of these three Earths, gangway people, here I come, your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.
16:09But now it should be obvious that it is requires more than just a bite of a radioactive spider, more than just the powers and gimmicks.
16:15In truth, it requires a special breed of person possessed of certain qualities, qualities which make up the individual name Peter Parker.
16:23You see, then, that it was Destiny's plan for Peter Parker to become the amazing Spider-Man.
16:28And it's my task to observe this Spider-Man on any of the worlds upon which he exists.
16:33Thus must it ever be, for I am the Watcher.
16:36Notes, at the end of the three stories, it explains that no matter who was bitten by the spider,
16:40Parker uses the spider's remaining venom to develop a serum that grants him spider powers and he dawns the mantle of Spider-Man.
16:48At the end of the three stories, the three heroes' careers had come to a sudden end.
16:52Flash and John's death and Betty's decision of giving up being Spider-Girl after the death of Ben Parker.
16:58Out of all three spider heroes of each story, Betty is the only one who used web shooters, whereas Flash did not have any and John only used a jetpack.
17:06Betty Brand giving up her identity as Spider-Girl homages Spider-Man no more.
17:11Despite all three stories ending with the subjects ending their crime-fighting careers,
17:15all three return much later as the members of the Multiversal Spider Army.
