As Dark Web approaches, SpiderMan will have to contend with his clone Ben Reilly. While Ben has tried to reinvent himself as a hero, he can't escape the fact that he's missing something only Peter Parker can give him - a soul.
In the latest issue of Marvel Comics' Amazing Spider-Man, Peter Parker's corrupted clone Ben Reilly is out for some dark revenge, intending to steal the original Webslinger's very soul. Following a brief period where Ben was the official Spider-Man in the Spider-Man Beyond storyline, Ben Reilly came out of the event darkly changed, putting on a new suit and taking the name Chasm.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Previously, Ben Reilly was the official Spider-Man sponsored by the Beyond Corporation while Peter was in the hospital. However, the sinister executives at Beyond kept manipulating Ben's memories to make him more compliant. Seeing as how his memories were already fragile enough as copies of Peter's, Ben was completely compromised to the point where he couldn't even remember the face of Uncle Ben or his iconic words about power and responsibility.
Ben Reilly Has Been Truly Corrupted As Spider-Man's Clone It's no secret that Ben Reilly's life has been one of tragedy. However, becoming Chasm and the abuse from Beyond has made things so much worse. Now, the only memories he can hang onto are those which are full of darkness and pain. As the Scarlet Spider and even in the few times he's been considered Spider-Man, Ben Reilly has been a genuine hero whom Peter considers to be a brother.
Having the same powers as the OG Spider-Man, Chasm will no doubt be a force to be reckoned with. However, he's also got an army of demons courtesy of Madelyne as they prepare for Marvel's upcoming Dark Web crossover event. While the odds are slim, here's hoping Peter Parker's Spider-Man can find a way to redeem Ben in the issues to come. Amazing Spider-Man #14 is on sale now from Marvel Comic.
