10 Insane Alternate Versions Of Spider-Man You Won't Believe Exist

8. Spider-Wolf

For the sake of making a lycanthropic Spider-Man even more confusing, Marvel decided to actually make two of them. There's the Peter Parker of Earth-13989, and the one of Earth-7085 (pictured above). Both - as you may have guessed already - are werewolves.

The idea of injecting another animal to the Spider-motif is bizarre enough, but the fact this was a trope the House of Ideas returned to on two separate occasions makes things even weirder. In any case, the Spider-Man of Earth-7085 exists in a realm where dozens of Marvel characters fell victim to the call of the moon, with the group having actually managed to kill Galactus too.

His abilities are also fairly self-evident, retaining the gifts imparted by the radioactive Spider, whilst also having all the bonuses of being a werewolf too.

The other werewolf only made one appearance in 2015's Amazing Spider-Man #11, and is killed off in that very same issue.

Still though, Spider-Wolf everyone! For when one animal gimmick just isn't enough.
