4. Spider-Man Snacks On MJ And Aunt May

In reality, the whole Marvel Zombies line was designed so that readers could get a glimpse of their favourite heroes and villains committing disgusting acts of savagery and cannibalism. As such, there are a multitude of monstrous, mauling murders committed across these tales.

For the Earth-2149 Peter Parker, he managed to ride out the virus wave that was weeping his realm. Well, until Colonel America finally infected this version of Spider-Man.

Once infected, ol' Web-head does his best to resist his cravings for human flesh. Unfortunately, these urges become too much for Peter and he ends up eating Mary Jane. Not content with that, Parker then decides to feast on his dear old Aunt May. Just to make things even more twisted, our Wall-crawler then 'kills' the reanimated corpse of MJ so that he can keep the flavoursome delights of May to himself.

The revelation about MJ and May was made in Marvel Zombies Returns, with this showing Spidey reflecting back on these heinous acts as he looks to rid himself of his infected curse and save the world. All as his body decays.
