He learned that the gem is the creation of Stargod, a god who wanted to transmit his powers to a successor. He learned also that a tyrant Arisen Tyrk took the control of the Other Realm. John decided to go inside this extra dimensional world where he stayed the Man-Wolf with John’s mind. He fought Arisen Tyrk and beat him.

He came back to earth, but the malediction was still working. So John returned to the Other Realm for a rescue mission.

When he returned to Earth, he learned that the gemstone poisoned his organism. His father decided to cryogen John until he found a remedy.

But Alistair Smythe broke the Man-Wolf free and controlled him to destroy J.J. Jameson and Spider-Man. Peter succeeded to take off the gem one more time. John fell inside the Hudson River.

John Jameson reappeared and accepted to be treated by Lizard with a biomagnetic solution. He was healed, but very feeble.
