As terrible as it can be, there are moments in the Marvel Universe where even the most valiant and stout-hearted hero can suffer a change of heart. Scarlet Witch once became corrupted by Mephisto; the X-Men’s Beast became the Dark Beast in the Age of Apocalypse reality; and even Iron Man became a villainous version of himself in the Superior Iron Man arc. Oddly enough, of all of Marvel’s superheroes who have taken the plunge into the dark side, Spider-Man has had a mercifully rare number of times when he took a moral fall.
Sure, Spider-Man has had moments that have challenged his ability to be a superhero. The discovery of his classic black suit resulted in him being controlled while he slept and also having his negative emotions amplified. During the Superior Spider-Man event, Doctor Octopus took over Peter Parker’s mind and body, resulting in a vastly different take on Spider-Man. On Earth-11638, a Spider-Man kidnapped other Spider-Men from across the multiverse and drained their life forces into his own. Most recently, Spider-Man became consumed by the sins of Norman Osborn and became the evil Spider-Goblin. When considered in its totality, the idea of Spider-Man becoming a morals-free supervillain is legitimately terrifying. Without a shadow of a doubt, if Spider-Man ever became as evil as Sabretooth or Carnage, the world would become a much darker place.
He might not punch as hard as Luke Cage or She-Hulk, but Spider-Man definitely hits harder than Captain America, Daredevil, or Moon Knight. Spider-Man has proven himself capable of not only going toe-to-toe with villains much more powerful than himself, such as Morlun, Carnage, the Rhino, and the Spider Slayers. Facing superpowered heroes like Doctor Strange, Invisible Woman, and Iron Man would take a large amount of effort on his part, but an evil Spider-Man would be a nightmare to face.
