    Origin

    On Earth-928 the year is 2099, Miguel O'Hara worked as the head of the genetics department for the Alchemax Corporation, specializing in genetic coding and splicing. He toyed with the idea of recreating the powers of the original Spider-Man from years ago. Miguel's boss, Tyler Stone, secretly got him addicted to the drug Rapture. This highly addictive drug couldn't be worked out of the body. It was Stone's way of controlling his employees by offering them the expensive drug in return for their loyalty. Miguel decided to try to genetically cure himself by rewriting his genetic code from a sample he had taken previously. He was being watched by a competitive co-worker Aaron Delgato who attempted to sabotage his experiment by adding a random code into the process. The results cured Miguel but also gave him spider-like powers. Aaron tried to shoot him but he fell from the Alchemax building despite Miguel trying to save him. Soon Tyler sent out a cyborg bounty hunter named Venture to capture him. Miguel fled to his home to escape Venture. Grabbing a costume from a Day of the Dead celebration he fought Venture and won. Miguel began fighting crime and the evil corporation Alchemax as Spider-Man.

    Inheritor autopsy

    When a variant of Miguel experiments with reaching across dimensions to his other selves, it causes Miguel to have vision of Morlun hunting down variants of himself. These visions cause Miguel to get swept up with an army of Spider-Totems from across multiple dimensions that are teaming up against Morlun and his family, The Inheritors, who feed on Spider-Totems. These Inheritors thrive using replicating clone bodies. While using a safe house in Miguel’s home dimension, they are attacked by one of the Inheritors, Daemos. When Daemos is killed, he returns in a cloned body and reinforcements. Miguel joins a group that steals the dead Daemos and escapes to study it for weaknesses.

    Miguel found them a lab at Alchemax by agreeing to not fight Tyler Stone for stranding him in the past. From the autopsy, Miguel concluded that they were especially vulnerable to radiation. They also learned more about the teleporting tech that Miguel had gotten off the earlier variant of himself. Using his own 2099’s tech to upgrade it, he was able to teleport himself and Lady Spider to The Safe Zone before Daemos would catch up with them in his new clone body. Unfortunately, they found the so-called Safe Zone destroyed after an Inheritor attack.

    Finding the Leopardon mech, Miguel and Lady Spider work on fixing it before joining the rest of the Spider-Totems for a final showdown against the Inheritors. With Miguel’s findings about radiation, the Spider-Totems worked to trap the Inheritors in a safe house on an irradiated variant Earth, where they would not be able to escape.

    After the dust settles, Miguel made it back to his home Earth.

    Fixing 2099

    New Upgraded Suit

    After returning to his home world, he was shocked to find it completely in disrepair, as if it fell victim to a great war. While looking for survivors, he came across Maestro who threw Miguel in a dungeon with Strange. Maestro blamed Alchemax for what happened, but Strange sensed reality warping. With her help, Miguel was able to break out of the dungeon and into Maestro’s armory which housed Doom’s time platform. Miguel managed to get it working and narrowly escaped before Maestro got the drop on him.

    Back in the present, Miguel was worried the work he started at Alchemax while he was previously stranded might have changed the future. To counteract it, he asked Peter for a job at Parker Industries. As head of Research and Development at Parker Industries, he managed to create a temporal portal to his future, one he would often check to see if his world had returned to his previous status, while he created programs to compete against Alchemax.

    His efforts would be interrupted when he and his girlfriend, Tempest, were almost killed in a terrorist attack. With a new advanced suit, he started looking into Fist, the organization responsible for the attack. This organization recently Venture, recruited a refugee from 2099, and a NuHuman, Glorianna, both originating from Miguel’s lab. They lured Miguel into a time portal and returned him to a yet a new variation of his 2099, taken over by Alchemax.

    Once in this new 2099, Miguel was kidnapped by a 2099 variation of the Sinister Six. They are currently running Nueva York for Alchemax. It wasn’t long though before revolutionaries led by his brother, Gabriel, rescued Miguel. They did so with the help of the Six’s Goblin, who was actually Jennifer D’Angelo, a mole for Gabriel. Since they remembered Miguel but he didn’t remember them, they filled him in on the 2019 Guerilla War that was responsible for the current state of his present. He was able to return to the present using the temporal portal in his lab back in Peter's present.

    Civil War 2099

    After conferring with a fellow refugee from his time, Captain America 2099, about how the future changed again, she went through the time portal to find her family. Opening the portal for that brief moment allowed the prophetic Inhuman, Ulysses, to have a vision of the future, which he passed on to Parker Industries about this Cap’s death. With this info, Miguel went through the portal to stop it from happening. He found 2099 had shifted once more. The Sinister Six are no longer in control, and superhumans have been outlawed.

    Not long after he arrived, Miguel was arrested by Gallows, who never became the Punisher in this version of 2099. Before he could be delivered to the authorities, he was rescued by Ghost Rider 2099 and delivered to Strange. Together, they align with a team of supers standing against Alchemax and their Anti-Powers Act. They had previously helped Cap track down her husband. Unfortunately, Cap’s husband called the authorities on her, and she was taken to SHIELD by the Power Pack.

    The CEO of Alchemeax, J.J. Jameson, plans to use her as bait to lure Spider-Man out in the open. Despite its obviousness, Miguel still managed to convince the rebel supers to join him in the fight. He arranged for them to assault SHIELD headquarters so that he could sneak into Alchemax and confront Jameson. He turned out to be a Skrull, so deep undercover that not even he knew. The shock of it broke his spirit and allowed Miguel to leave with Cap. The two then returned to Earth-616 with the rebel supers and SHIELD vowing to work together against the Skrulls.

    Vs. The Fist

    Miguel believed he had an edge against The Fist, who still believed Miguel was trapped in the future. With Cap 2099 by his side, they continued to look into The Fist, which caused them to cross paths with Elektra, who targeted them since they were a splinter group of The Hand. While investigating where Miguel was trapped in a time machine, they found only Iron Man 2099 (Sonny Frisco), who had been brainwashed into helping The Fist. Sonny was a promising new resource, but Miguel was distracted when Tempest awoke from the coma she was in since The Fist’s first attack.

    She had been taken by Tyler Stone, Miguel’s estranged father and rival from 2099. He was working with The Fist and had the 2099 Sinister Six in his employ. Electro 2099 was sent after Sonny, but Miguel was able to stop him. With Lyla’s help, they tricked him into revealing the future event that kicks off the warped version of 2099 that Miguel keeps returning to. With a new target date, Miguel has his temporal portal adjusted so he can travel to that fateful day.

    Miguel tracks down Tyler Stone who is about to release a deadly toxin. Tyler is protected by members of the Sinister Six 2099, but Miguel gets back up from heroes from this present: Tempest as a wasp humanoid and Gabriel, the son he will have with Tempest using his old costume. Gabri stabs Stone, and the toxic vile was recovered. The rest of The Fist went on the run.

    With the toxin recovered, his true 2099 has returned. He returns Captain America to her future and promotes Sonny to his job at Parker Industries. He then sets out to rescue Tempest from Tyler in this present despite learning he will die doing so. With Tempest safe and Miguel killed, he awakes once more in 2099, rescued by Cap and Strange. However, he is unable to return to his family since the historical records say he truly died that day.

    The End of 2099

    In the year 2099, reality began to slowly warp, getting exponentially worse. Miguel confronted Doom, but Doom took no responsibility. Instead, he sent Miguel back through time to get help. This would have normally caused the timeline to collapse after his last time travel adventure, but the collapse was already happening.

    Miguel fell through time and landed back on Earth-616 in the present yet again. He landed on an offshore oil platform belonging to Roxxon during a disaster bigger than Deepwater Horizon. He couldn’t remember how he got to the present or how to use his spider-powers. He only knew he needed Peter’s help. While being chased by Roxxon goons, Miguel eventually catches up to Peter and informs him of what’s going on before disappearing from the timeline.

    Once Miguel disappears from the timeline, the resulting temporal energy surge powers a probability device created by an ESU student. Spider-Man is able to use the device to predict the best course of action to sway the timeline damage, which was caused by Doctor Doom overreacting to an assassination attempt on one of his Doombots.

    Once the timeline stabilized, Miguel reappeared and washed up on an island. While searching the beach town, he found Tempest with his son, given a second chance at having a family. Meanwhile a variant of himself was reborn in a new 2099.

    Manipulating his genetics

    In the new 2099 future, Miguel was an up and coming geneticist with Alchemax. He was sent to an area called The Ravage, where prolonged exposure causes fatal mutations. He was looking for a useful mutation when he found a spider humanoid mutate. He took a number of tissue samples during an autopsy and isolated the genetic sequence. Miguel was racked with guilt because his work wasn’t more helpful to those who needed it.

    After trying to score drugs in the boroughs and arguing with his bleeding heart brother, Miguel ran into an old man who claimed to be the previous version of Miguel. The older him filled Miguel in on the Forgotten Age (the present fo Earth-616) about noble heroes standing between destruction and everyone else. They were memories stolen by Doom, and old Miguel believes young Miguel was the key to fixing it. He needed to use the spider humanoid genetics to become Spider-Man

    Miguel rejected it at first, but his brother was the victim of Alchemax. He had broken into Miguel’s apartment to steal confidential files about Alchemax’s secret business, and the company responded by blowing up Miguel’s apartment, killing Gabriel in the process. This was the trigger than pushed Miguel into willingly becoming the Spider-Man of 2099.

    When an Illuminati type group called The Cabal kills a Celestial, it crashes near Nueva York. Its body causes a new Garden of Eden to spring up. Miguel was monitoring chatter from The Cabal that was interested in securing the garden for their own needs. Led by Norman Osborn, who learned to extend his life, The Cabal has placed a bounty on the garden, and Miguel is afraid it will cause chaos as civilians compete to secure it for the prize.

    Miguel collected a group of allies that could assist him in protecting the garden. Ghost Rider 2099 got him in touch with Winter Soldier 13. She helped take down the Murmurnet satellite, shutting down the gig economy that was offering the bounty. When Osborn called in his Masters of Evil, Miguel convinced Moon Knight, the surviving Avengers, to bring together a new roster of Avengers to stand against them. It wasn’t until the X-Men tried to make a home out of the Garden that Osborn finally showed his face.

    With the X-Men and Avengers as back up, Miguel fought this Galactic Goblin. He swiped his black car, the key to his wealth and power, and slipped it to the mutant technopath, Nostromo. With Ghost Rider’s help, Nostromo hacked the card and shut the whole network down, cutting The Cabal off from its resources. No longer above the law, Osborn was arrested, and the Garden was given to the X-Men.

    After Miguel managed to shut down Osborn, his “black carders,” Cabal members who were above the law, protests broke out against the next group of elites trying to take their spots. Miguel, with his new partner, Spider-Woman, had to walk a thin line of allowing them to speak but stopping them before they got violent. This was made more difficult by Carnage, who joined the protests for the sole purpose of instigating riots. He was able to stab Miguel in the leg causing the wound to immediately fester.

    He needed the help of Ghost Rider and Blade, who tended to his wounds and helped him and Spider-Woman strategize against this version of Carnage, which shows signs of vampirism. Their plan was to deoxygenate Carnage’s blood making it useless to him and then lock him in Rider’s Ghost Room. Carnage had new allies though, specifically Halloween Jack, who was posing as a member of the Alchemax board, and a spider-android called Flipside that Alchemax had developed. He has also used his blood to put part of the protesters under his thrawl as his “hive.”

    Thankfully, more allies come to Miguel's side. Punisher, Daredevil, Moon Knight, and a new Venom all join him against the hive. Together, they were finally enough to overtake Carnage, whom Venom threw into a building fire to finally be rid of.

    Powers

    Web-swinging!
    Web-swinging!

    Spider-Man 2099 has powers similar to the modern day Spider-Man. He has superhuman strength, agility, durability, speed, reflexes, eyesight. His healing abilities are also heightened. He has spinnerets in his forearms that allow him to shoot organic webbing out from the top of his wrist.

    Miguel also has retractable talons that come out of his fingers and toes that allows him to climb any surface, and can also be used offensively. They've been shown to be able to cut and grab most objects, but were ineffective against Thanatos' armor.

    He also has fangs that secretes poison if he bites someone. The poison of these fangs appear paralyzes Spider-Man's "victims". The poison has been shown to be powerful enough to affect people like the Sub-Mariner, Risque, and even Thanatos.

    Miguel also has genius-level intelligence and is especially gifted in genetics.

    Fangs!
    Fangs!

    He doesn't have any extra sense like Spider-Man's danger sense, but makes up for it with all his enhanced senses, and doesn't web-swing as much as Spider-Man either, but is able to travel as fast as the Original Spider-Man is. Instead he uses a web cape for gliding. His "web cape" was given to him by a "Thorite". One of Thor's worshipers. This Thorite believed that Spider-Man is the Harbinger of Thor, and gave it to him, because, as the Thorite so rightly put it, "The Spider-Man must be masked".

    His costume is composed of Unstable Molecule Fabric (UMF). This allows Miguel free use of his talons without the risk of damaging his suit, and protects him from slashing damage as seen when Superior Spider-Man takes a swipe at him with his claws but fails to cut the suit. It appears the UMF also protects against acid which Miguel notes in his battle against Venom 2099 who was secreting a skin-eating acid.

    Miguel received a new high-tech outfit, courtesy of Peter Parker that improved upon his original suit. This time the Unstable Molecules were bonded to kevlar, greatly increasing its durability. It features on-board sensors for complete vicinity readings, better Lyte Byte Material for improved gliding, and internal boot thrusters for launch.

    Alternate Realities

    Exiles (Earth-6375):

    Spider-man 2099 & The Exiles

    During a battle when the inter-dimensional team known as the Exiles visited Earth-928, from before Doom 2099 took over the United States. It was here that Miguel's identity was exposed to the entire world when he was unmasked by Hulk 2099, who was possessed by Proteus. This resulted into the creation of an alternate 2099 reality, known as Earth 6375. Rather than being hunted by Alchemax, Miguel decided to join the Exiles in trying to fix time-lines that went wrong. He had remained with the team for various missions, his intellect helping to save the day on many ocassions. When all of the members were scattered throughout different realities, Miguel was thrown into the past of his own reality and decided to settle on that alternate earth (Earth-6375) with a new girlfriend, that reality's Mary Jane Watson.

    Not much was heard from Miguel untill a few months later, when he noticed, thanks to some Exiles equipment he took with him, that a group of beings known as the Inheritors had been killing Spider-like heroes through the multiverse. Miguel had taken it upon himself to warn other heroes of this looming thread. While he was spying on one of the Inheritors, Morlun, the foe noticed his presence. Miguel quickly aborted the spying and tried to travel to Earth 616 to warn his Earth 928 counterpart (whom was currently staying in that reality) about Morlum. But right at the moment that Miguel made contact with that reality, and was about to travel through it, he was caught and killed by Morlun. His girlfriend was left behind in grief and disgust. It was later revealed that the 'main' Spider-Man 2099 of the 928 reality had received the Exiles armband from the Exiles' Spider-Man 2099. It was used by him in order to help the other Spider-Men in defeating the Inheritors.
