Mainstream audiences finally got a taste of the Marvel multiverse when Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse blessed us all in 2019, but not all alt-reality Spider-Man are as wholesome as they are there.

Nooooo... Peter Parker is second only to Reed Richards when it comes to possessing a frightening number of scary alt-doppelgangers, the scariest of which is called, uhm, Doppelganger.

Created by Magus (himself an evil version of Adam Warlock) during Infinity War (the sequel to Infinity Gauntlet, which saw Thanos snap away half the life in the universe), Doppelganger was a six armed monster based upon Spider-Man's template.

On the nightmare fuel scale, he lies somewhere in the version of Peter we find at the beginning of the Six-Arm Saga, and the Man Spider he eventually develops into later on in the arc. No wonder he became mates with Carnage.
