That'd be me. The Spider-Man of tomorrow, here to save today...
~ Spider-Man 2099.
Spider-Man is a great chapter in our history, and you're not even a footnote.
~ Miguel O'Hara to J. Jonah Jameson.
I'm staring to take this personally. It seems that everywhere I go, problems start. Like here... I go to the bank, that's it. Just a trip to the shockin' bank. Just wanted to deposit some money, is all. Millions of people do things like this every day, without incident. But not me. No, I wander in and thirty seconds later there's a damned robbery in progress. There's always something.
~ Miguel O'Hara.

Spider-Man 2099 (real name Miguel O'Hara) is a fictional character and superhero in the Marvel comics and universe, and is a superhero hailing from the future, specifically the year 2099, and the successor of the original Spider-Man, Peter Parker. He is also the main protagonist of his titular comics, and a major character in the Spider-Verse comics storyline.

He is a geneticist working for Alchemax who, in an attempt to replicate the powers of Spider-Man, accidentally altered his genetic code to 50% spider, giving him spider-like superpowers. Miguel originally strived to find a cure, but upon realizing how much of a dystopia the future was, donned a UMF-crafted suit and became the next Spider-Man. He is the eponymous protagonist of the comic book of the same name, and is a supporting protagonist in various Spider-Man stories, especially the Spider-Verse storyline.

He was created by Peter David and Rick Leonardi, and first appeared in Spider-Man 2099 #1 in March of 1992.

History[]

Origins[]

Miguel O'Hara, an engineer of Irish and Mexican descent, worked for Alchemax. He was less than pleased at the corporation's vast control over the city. A genius in the field of genetics, he was being pressured by Tyler Stone to test a process to imprint genetic codes into human physiology. He reluctantly tried the process on a test subject named Mr. Sims. It was a failure - Sims was transformed into a hideous creature and quickly died.

This was the last straw for Miguel: he went to Stone and attempted to hand in his notice. Stone gave and Miguel accepted a drink which, unknown to Miguel had been laced with the highly addictive hallucinogenic drug called Rapture. As Alchemax was sole manufacturer of the drug, Stone expected that Miguel would be forced to remain with the company.

In an attempt to rid himself of the hallucinogen, Miguel decided to try the genetic procedure, which had killed Sims, on himself. The process was sabotaged by his supervisor, Aaron Delgato, in the attempt to kill him (the incident would be covered up as an accident). Miguel survived the process; his DNA was spliced with the genes of a spider and gained several powers. Making a costume from a Day of the Dead (a traditional Mexican holiday) outfit, Miguel battled Alchemax and other villains as the Spider-Man of 2099.

Biography[]

Background[]

Miguel O'Hara was born in Nueva York to Alchemix International executive Tyler Stone, whom started an affair with his employee's wife Conchata O'Hara. Growing up believing that George was his father, Miguel wouldn't learn the truth, but Conchata learned the truth from Tyler's wife Nancy Herod. During his youth, Miguel became friends with Xina Kwan, whom encouraged him to stand up to bullies like Kron Stone. The two soon began a romantic relationship until O'Hara cheated on her with his half-brother's girlfriend, Dana D'Angelo. Showing brilliance in the field of genetics, Miguel became an engineer in adulthood, and later became an employee for Alchemax.

Becoming Spider-Man[]

At Alchemax, Miguel came to despise the corporation due to their control over the city, and Tyler's pressure over him to perform illegal projects. The final straw came when Miguel was pressured to imprint genetics onto a test subject named Sims, which resulted in the latter turning into a creature and dying. O'Hara confronted Stone over the incident, providing his notice to leave Alchemax, but was tricked into drinking the addictive drug Rapture. Needing to escape from Alchemax, Miguel used the same procedure he performed on Sims to remove the drug, but was nearly killed by Aaron Delgato's attempt to sabotage the process. Following the process, Miguel's DNA was spliced with a genetically enhanced spider, and he quickly developed superpowers.

After accidently causing Aaron's death, Miguel evaded the Public Eye, where he was named "Spider-Man" due to the misconception by a member of the Church of Thor. Discovering that he developed talons and fangs, O'Hara created a costume to fight against Venture, a mercenary hired by Alchemax to capture him. When captured by Stone and Public Eye, Miguel decided to return to Alchemax, but Tyler didn't know about his son's alter-ego. He also battled against the Specialist, whom he accidently killed during their fight. During his adventures, Miguel battled against villains such as the Vulture 2099, and worked with Peter Parker to stop the Hobgoblin.

Continuing his heroics, Miguel became the head of Alchemax, as Stone was given a position by Doctor Doom to join his cabinet, with the latter having become president of the United States. O'Hara also learned that Tyler was his father, which caused him to return to Xina as his relationship with Dana started to sour. However, Miguel would lose the love of his life to Kron, whom had become the new host for the Venom symbiote.

Trapped in the Present[]

When a alternate version of Wolverine caused the distortion of the space time continuum, Miguel learned that Tyler was being erased from existence, which would cause him to be erased as well. O'Hara soon traveled to Earth-616 to stop the distoration, where he worked with the Superior Spider-Man (who was Dr. Otto Ocatvius in Peter's body). He became close to killing his grandfather Tiberius Stone, but stopped after realizing Tyler had destroyed the time portal, trapping him in the present. Despite this, Miguel decided to remain in the past to investigate Alchemax, taking on the name "Michael O'Hara". At the corporation, Miguel worked as Tiberius' assistant, and became acquainted with a woman named Tempest.

At some point, Miguel worked with Superior Spider-Man once again to fight against the Goblin King, whom offered Octavius a choice to find Anna Marconi. Otto accepted the offer and abandoned O'Hara, whom cursed at the former before battling J. Jonah Jameson's Spider-Slayers. During the fight, Miguel encountered the real Peter Parker, explaining that Doctor Octopus had switched bodies with him previously.

Powers and Abilities[]

O'Hara possesses a variety of superhuman attributes after being genetically imprinted with the DNA of a spider.

  • Superhuman Strength: O'Hara possesses the proportionate strength of a spider. At his peak, he possesses sufficient superhuman strength to lift up to 10 tons. O'Hara's great strength also extends to his legs, allowing him to leap great distances. He has been known to leap to heights of at least 30 feet in a single bound.
  • Superhuman Speed: O'Hara can run and move at speeds that are beyond the natural physical limits of the finest human athlete.
  • Superhuman Stamina: O'Hara's advanced musculature generates less fatigue toxins during physical activity than the musculature of a normal human. At his peak, he can physically exert himself for at least several hours before the build up of fatigue toxins in his blood begins to impair him.
  • Superhuman Durability: O'Hara's body is harder and more resistant to certain types of physical injury than the body of an ordinary human, though he's far from invulnerable. His bodily tissues are conditioned to allow him to withstand great impact forces and he has resisted impacts, such as falling from a height of many stories and being repeatedly struck by a super-humanly strong opponent, that would severely injure or kill a normal human with little to no injury to himself.
  • Superhuman Agility: O'Hara's agility, balance, and bodily coordination are all enhanced to levels that are beyond the natural physical limits of the finest human athlete.
  • Superhuman Reflexes: O'Hara's reflexes are similarly enhanced and are superior to those of the finest human athlete..
  • Accelerated Vision: O'Hara's visual acuity is considerably beyond that of a normal human. O'Hara can see objects at much greater distances, with perfect clarity, relative to an ordinary human. O'Hara possesses this same level of clarity at night, enabling him to see in near-complete darkness. It is possible that he is able to see into the infra-red end of the electromagnetic spectrum, enabling him to see a person's body heat. the flicker-fusion horizon(the speed at which some objects appear as a blur) in his eyes is superior to other people. What appears as a blur to most people, he can see perfectly. It also acts as a type of early warning, not the degree of a spider-sense but he is able to see attacks coming from far away.
  • Rapid Healing: O'Hara's accelerated metabolism affords him a rapid healing ability that lets him regenerate damaged bodily tissue faster and more extensively than a normal human is capable of. Injuries such as slashes or puncture wounds can heal completely within a matter of hours. It isn't known if O'Hara's healing powers afford him greater resistance to toxins or diseases; nor if they grant him an extended lifespan. O'Hara's healing factor isn't sufficiently enhanced to regenerate severed limbs or missing organs. Although he heals at a greater rate than a normal human, he doesn't possess an actual superhuman healing factor.
  • Talons and Fangs: O'Hara possesses elongated canine teeth that secrete a paralyzing, though non-toxic, venom. He also possesses short, retractable talons at the tips of his fingers and toes that he uses to dig into surfaced, enabling him to crawl along them as a spider might. The talons are also razor sharp and, coupled with his great strength, are able to rend materials as durable as cinder block.
  • Spinnerets: Both of O'Hara's forearms contain a set of spinnerets that release a very strong and sticky web-like substance from the back of his wrists. O'Hara can use this webbing to swing from building to building with or as a means of restraining an individual. Unlike the original spider-man, O'Hara's webs are organic and are chemically identical to real spider silk.
  • Enhanced Resilience: O'Hara has a level of resilience far greater than most humans. He once fell off a building and effortlessly walked to a hospital, where a doctor said that with broken ribs and massive fractures, it was amazing that he could even stand up.
  • Spider-Sense: Originally O'Hara did not possess a Spider-Sense as the original Spider-Man did. However, in Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, Madame Web passed on this power to him to aid him. Note that this ability has not appeared outside of Shattered Dimensions.
  • Accelerated Decoy: Allows O'Hara to move so fast that he can leave behind a body double for enemies to attack.
