Peter Parker was having a strange dream that night. He was in a laboratory, surrounded by chambers containing humanoid figures. He could hear a person laughing from behind him. Suddenly he was woken up by MJ.

"Peter," she said, "are you awake?"

"No." he said, "Well, I am now, but-"

"I know what you meant. But since you're awake now, there's something I have to tell you."

"What?"

"I'm pregnant. I noticed some strange things going on recently, like occasional mood swings, slightly odd cravings, the whole works, so I went to the hospital to get tested."

"You got a pregnancy test in the middle of the night?"

"No, you were sleeping in unusually late."

"Must've been that dream."

"What dream?"

"Strange dream I had last night."

Spider-Man was swinging through the city later that day on his regular patrol. He swung and zipped his way from Queens to Manhattan to the Bronx and so on. When he landed in the seat of a nearby stadium, he found himself face to face with another Spider-Man, identical to him, right down to what you could see of his physical build under the costume.

"What the hell?" said Spider-Man.

"Do you like my creation?" said a voice from the top of the building. A man crawled down the wall, revealing himself to look like a green, anthropomorphic jackal.

"I made him myself," said the man, "from your own DNA."

"You cloned me?" said Spider-Man.

"Yes." said the Jackal.

"Why?"

"To kill you!"

"Why?"

"That won't matter to you." the Jackal turned to the clone, "Kill him!" The clone punched Spider-Man in the face. Spider-Man kicked the clone away in retaliation. The clone then tackled Spider-Man out of the spectator area and onto the ground (at this point in the movie, the viewer is supposed to lose track of which Spider-Man is real and which is the clone). The fight continued on, however it seemed that there was no way for one to defeat the other as they're evenly matched. After a few hours the Jackal began to grow tired of watching them fight, and threw a bomb at the two dueling Spider-Men. After 10 seconds or so, it detonated, when the smoke cleared, you could see one Spider-Man was dead, and the other alive.
