When the news reached Peter that Norman Osborn—the original Green Goblin—was not only alive but had openly returned to the public eye, his expression shifted from concern to a calm, calculated focus. He wasn't surprised; if anything, he felt a sense of relief that the board was finally set.
"I was worried Norman would hide in the shadows indefinitely," Peter mused, his fingers tapping against his metal gauntlet. "But he's already jumped back into the fray. He must have realized Harry has abandoned his dark 'legacy,' which is likely why he sought out Karn for a partnership."
Peter's gaze swept over the laboratory. Row upon row of newly modified Plasma Pumpkin Bombs lined the shelves. While the full Anti-Morlun Battle Suit was still in production, these bombs were the first line of defense. They incorporated the reverse transmutation array he had deconstructed from Karn's own weapon. They wouldn't just hurt Karn; they would inhibit his high-speed cellular regeneration.
"Deep Blue," Peter commanded. "Call Gwen, Harry, and Tobey to the living room. It's time to brief the team."
The Gathering of Spiders
When Peter entered the living room of the Osborn Manor, the tension was palpable. Tobey Maguire was the first to stand, his eyes wide with a mix of awe and disbelief. He had spent his life believing he was a singular anomaly, but the reality of the Multiverse was now standing right in front of him.
"Oh my God," Tobey whispered, his Spider-Sense humming as he looked at Peter. "The parallel universe theory... quantum mechanics really did open a new door. You're actually me... but from somewhere else."
Peter offered a small, reassuring smile. "Buddy, there are countless Peter Parkers out there. Don't be too shocked; you'll probably meet a few more before we're through."
"Countless versions of me?" Tobey sat back down, his mind racing. "That's... that's incredible."
Harry stepped in, grounding the conversation. "As much as I'd love a science lecture, we have a monster on the loose. Peter, what's the plan?"
The Predator's Countermeasure
Peter's tone turned serious as he explained the nature of their enemy. Karn wasn't just a strong villain; he was a "Spider-Totem" hunter, an energy vampire whose very existence was designed to consume them. Tobey's face paled as he recalled the sensation of his life force being drained away like water through a sieve.
"You're right," Tobey said, his voice low. "The moment he touched me, it was like my strength just vanished."
"Exactly," Peter replied. "That's why we're changing tactics. I won't be taking the field this time. I need to observe your combat performance against him from the sidelines to gather the final data points for my Anti-Morlun suit."
He gestured to the Plasma Pumpkin Bombs he had brought with him. "These are specifically designed to neutralize his life-energy absorption. Harry, your glider and equipment have been fully overhauled. Gwen, you're the lead on this. I trust your maturity and your combat instincts."
Gwen nodded, her expression fierce. "We won't let you down, Peter."
A Gift for the Classic Hero
As the meeting wound down, Peter activated his Nanometer Metal Battle Suit. The liquid metal flowed over his body, shimmering with a titanium-gray luster. Tobey Maguire watched the display with genuine, wide-eyed envy.
Peter had noticed it before. Unlike other variants who might be wealthy or high-tech, this Tobey was the most "steady" version of Spider-Man. He worked a low-paying job at the Daily Bugle, lived in a cramped apartment, and never used his powers for personal gain or glory. He was the embodiment of responsibility.
Peter reached out and patted Tobey's shoulder. "Is the suit cool?"
Tobey nodded earnestly. "Of course it's cool! It's the most amazing thing I've ever seen. I'm just out here in spandex, and you're... well, you're a tank."
Peter saw no greed in Tobey's eyes—only pure admiration. It was this resilience and humility that made Peter decide to do something special. He had spent the last several hours not just on his own armor, but on remaking Tobey's classic suit from the ground up.
"Well," Peter said with a grin, "if we're going to fight a god, you're going to need more than spandex."
