And to answer a few questions or statement by reviewers:
cabrera1234: Some will while others will just assume that Peter was okay with fighting Doomsday on his own and not bother.
superspiderfan: I may add two more girls that I have in mind but that's it.
treyalexander63917: Miguel, Miles, Kaine, Cindy and the web warriors will appear around the time that the Marvel heroes find Spidey or at least the ones who cared about him that is
Hero of the Multiverse: The Avengers, X-men, Fantastic Four and a few others will come to realize just how much of an impact Peter had and yeah some will feel bad for not noticing and others will be devastated because they knew and now they believe they will never have the chance to show him

Twenty minutes after the incident at the Baxter building…
Miles was currently trying to console a distraught and crying Anya Corazón or Spider-girl to the world as they and the Human torch were making their way back to Avengers tower
Not even five minutes after the Negative Zone portal had blown up, Anya had appeared in hopes of helping her mentor face down the seemingly unstoppable monster. Miles couldn't even begin to describe the sheer pain and sadness he saw on the older girl's face when he told her that they were too late
Johnny had quietly offered them a lift back to the Avengers tower in his team's flying car where apparently Reed and Sue along with Steve Rogers, the Hulk and Thor had returned along with the Guardians of the Galaxy who returned early from their mission. Johnny had sent a message ahead telling them all to stay there as he had some rather bad news to tell that may or may not affect all of them
"It's not fair!" Anya cried into Miles chest and nearly crushed him as she wrapped her arms around him as if afraid he'll leave too "After all he's done this is how the universe repays him!? By having him killed by some fuckin Hulk reject!"
Johnny didn't say anything as he navigated the Fantastic car through the skies but Miles saw his hands tighten on the controls. The man looked like he wanted to break down but was trying to stay strong
"M-Miles… why did it have to b-be h-him?" Anya started to hiccup a little as tears fell down her face like waterfalls "Of all the people… why him…"
Miles for the life of him didn't know what to say, seeing his version of Peter Parker die was different. Yeah the man was cool and all but he never really got to know him so when he died yeah it sucked but it didn't hurt. This world's Peter on the other hand was like an older brother to him, a mentor that did his best to set Miles on the path that would allow him to become perhaps an even better Spider-man than him one day…
'No, I doubt I'll ever come close to being the same kind of man you were boss' Miles thought as he rubbed Anya's back while tears fell down his cheeks
Several minutes later Johnny was bringing the Fantastic car down on the landing pad reserved for the Avenger's Quinn jet. Miles hoped out first before helping Anya next, the girl could barely stand as she still silently shook with sobs
Miles couldn't blame her, she's known him longer and the man inspired her to be a hero.
Johnny switched the car off and stayed in the vehicle much to Miles's confusion "Aren't you gonna come inside? Let the others know what happened?"
The Human Torch was quiet for a few moments before he started to speak softly, his eyes starting to water
"Why… I haven't spoken to Peter in almost a year even after it was discovered he wasn't Ock anymore… I made a conscious decision to abandon one of my oldest friends… and in the end despite how shitty me and the Four treated him… he still made sure to get me out of harm's way…" Johnny said more so to himself than to Miles who listened with a bit of sympathy and a hint of anger at the fact that the closest thing Peter had to family both inside and outside the hero community abandoned him
"I-It's because that's the k-kind of man h-he was" Anya said with a sob "It doesn't matter if you h-hate him or n-not, he'll do whatever it t-takes to help you"
"…" Johnny didn't respond to that as he let Anya's words sink in
Miles turned and was about to walk Anya in when Julia suddenly appeared in front of him. He was taken back by her appearance and so was Anya and Johnny who got out of the car and gave her a curious look
"Madam Webb?" the youngest member of the Fantastic Four said in surprise
"Here…" Julia walked over and wrapped her coat around Anya "I've got her"
Miles noted that her voice was raw, like she was crying 'She probably saw the whole thing…'
Miles let Anya go with her predecessor while he and the Human Torch followed the crestfallen duo. Eventually they made it to the main hall that the Avengers and Guardians of the galaxy were in. Hulk was the first to see them
"Why is bug girl crying?" the green giant said worriedly at the sight of the tear stricken girl
Anya's response was to start crying again why Julia helped her sit down at a vacant seat as she comforted the girl
"Shh… there, there… I know" Julia said trying to keep herself together
"Julia?" Carol spoke up as she approached the duo with a sense of dread in her tone "What's happened?"
Miles was the one to answer her as he sent a glare towards a certain armored Avenger "Ask Stark, he'll tell you- oh wait he probably wont since the matter was clearly beneath him and the Avengers"
Steve frowned at the tone and turned to Stark with an even stare "Tony… what's he talking about?"
Stark looked a bit nervous all of the sudden "Uh well you see Steve…"
"Spider-man has fallen" Julia said as streams of tears were falling down her face "He faced the herald of a great evil that's hoping to ensnare this world and another and he gave his life to defeat it…"
Many people were taken back by Julia's revelation. The Guardians of the Galaxy, Carol, Thor Odinson, Hulk and by proxy Banner, Steve and Nova and Ms. Marvel being the most shocked
"How do you know that?" Rouge asked with some disbelief in her tone "People supposedly die all the time and come back"
Suddenly Anya pulled out her phone and placed it on the table "Jarvis access m-my account and pull up the videos of… S-Spider-man and his fight" she began to tear up towards the end causing Julia to pull her into a hug as she began to cry quietly too
"Yes ma'am" Jarvis said in a tone that while electronic actually sounded sad
A large screen appeared that started playing a compilation of Spider-man's fight with the unknown hostile in order. Everyone watched in silence as Spider-man was shown fighting and losing a horrific one-sided fight. Sure they saw him get a few good hits in that were impressive and actually surprised the group on how much Peter was giving his all, but in the end it was only delaying the inevitable
Carol gasped in horror at the part where it showed Spider-man being smacked away into a fuel truck "My god… where the hell was everyone when this was happening! Even I can tell that thing was on par with the Hulk in strength alone!"
"Like I said, ask Stark!" Miles gritted out in anger as he sat down and held his head in his hands and rubbed the sides of his temples to try and calm himself down. Otherwise he might try to physically rip Stark in half
Stark didn't even get a chance to blink before he was suddenly hoisted up by his throat by a very enraged Carol who looked like she was going to do just that "Stark. What. Didn't. You. Do!"
Stark struggled to breath in the woman's grip "I-It d-didn't seem l-like an A-Avengers p-p-problem at the time!"
Carol's eyes widened in shock before they narrowed in unholy rage with energy glowing in her hands, Stark let out a hiss of pain as his neck started to burn slightly "You mother f-"
"Carol" Steve said calmly while still watching the video "Don't… Stark truly isn't worth it anymore"
"Damn, I've seen some nasty things in my time but that thing" Rocket Racoon said as he pointed to the image of the large grey monster "That thing's like a Hulk in power but with the personality of Thanos… just destroy and kill"
"I've never seen such a beast before" Thor Odinson said as he examined the brute "To think the Man of Spider's lasted as long as he did… I myself doubt to be able to last half as long, even if I resorted to using the Odin Force"
"GRRRR where's bad Hulk? Hulk smash bad Hulk for hurting Bug man!" Hulk slammed his hand into the wall causing the whole building to shake slightly as bits of green bioelectricity began to arc across his body, indicating he was approaching very dangerous levels of rage
"Johnny…" Reed said as he turned to his silent brother in law "I got a message from the Baxter building earlier. It mentioned damage to the Negative Zone portal and an unstable singularity forming followed by an explosion. Was that Peter?"
Johnny nodded "Yeah… guess he figured if he couldn't beat it, he could maybe send it somewhere else where it couldn't cause any harm or at least trap it"
"Didn't work out too well in the end for him" Hawkeye said with a snort
"Barton… just shut the fuck up" Rogers said, surprising everyone with his remark and use of language. The man was pretty strict about language use, especially in the company of minors
"W-what… Cap I was just sayin-" Clint tried to defend himself before suddenly Stark was thrown into him courtesy of Captain Marvel
"One more damn word Barton… and I'll rip your eyes out. As a start!" Carol growled as tears were falling down her face before she turned and began to make her way out of the room
"Where are you going?" Blue marvel questioned the powerful human-Kree hybrid
Carol stopped but didn't turn around "…To tell Jessica the man we love and hoping was going to be the father of her child is dead because his so called allies decided that helping him wasn't worth the effort" she than vanished in a blur
"Alright Jarvis, that's enough" Steve said with a sigh as he made his way to Anya who was still sobbing and kneeled down to her level "Spider-girl… Anya, I can't begin to tell you how sorry I am. To you and Miles…Peter… he was a good man. One of the best I've ever met in fact"
"F-Funny… he says the same about y-you" Anya choked out
"Heh yeah… but I still think he was… is a better hero than I ever hope to be" Steve said as he stood up and turned a hard stare on the Avengers "Wish I could say the same for the rest of you…"
Sam stepped forward "Look Steve if we knew what wou-"
Steve held up a hand "Son, unless you want me to break my hand into your face and finish kicking your ass with my shield, you won't finish that statement. Spider-man may not have been the most powerful or talented hero ever but he had something a lot of you seemed to have either lost… or never had in the first place"
"And what would that be or great Cap'n Rogers?" Amadeus Cho said with an eye roll as he leaned back in his chair that was able to hold his large hulking frame "Sure Peter was smart but come on, he could barely make ends meet half the time from what I've heard and his inventions for Horizon Labs were basic and simple at best. Nothing revolutionary about noise canceling head phones"
Hulk growled at that and begin to make his way towards the newer Hulk when Odinson caught his arm "Nay friend, your unworthy successor is not worth the thrashing he deserves"
"Hulk smash fake Hulk for insulting Bug man!" Hulk roared in rage
"Hulk don't" Sentry stepped forward
"Uh didn't he kick your ass already?" Star Lord said with a raised hand "Because if so, then why do you want another whooping? I mean hey if your into that than by all means go for it!"
Sentry sent a glare of annoyance towards the man who gave him a shrug as Thor with some assistance from Drax was dragged out of the room followed by a saddened Groot and Rocket Raccoon
"I am Groot" Groot said sadly
"Yeah big guy, really messed up how quickly people on this team are willing to betray its own members" Rocket said as he gave the group the finger with both hands as he left the room "Starting to wonder why we waist the effort to try and save this place!"
"Come on Anya… let's get you home" Julia whispered to the young woman and slowly with the aid of Miles began to walk the girl out
Steve watched them go and was a bit surprised to see Ms. Marvel, who grabbed Anya's phone off the table, and Nova follow them out too 'Least Miles has good choice in friends… unlike me'
Steve than turned to the assembled group of heroes, many of which he once proudly called friends but after tonight...
He noticed Johnny in corner sitting with his head in his knees and not moving while his sister Sue was rubbing his back. Reed was holding a tablet that was showing a recording of what happened inside the lab before the connection was lost. From the looks of it, the man was trying to figure out exactly what happened
'Hopefully he's trying to find a way to see if Peter somehow survived and can be saved' Steve thought sadly before his gaze hardened at seeing Tony approach him
"look Cap I-" Tony began only to be cut off as Steve punched him square in the face, breaking his nose from the sound of it
"Stark I don't want to hear any of your excuses because frankly I'm sick of hearing almost the exact same thing!" Steve said in an angered tone "The Avengers isn't about abandoning people just because the issues their facing isn't large scale or flashy, the Avengers were formed to help fight the battles that no one else could alone and as far as I can see… You all decided to let Spider-man do exactly that"
"Look Rogers" Clint said as he leaned against the table "We had no idea that it would have ended like this, I mean the guy in the past has taken on the likes of the Hulk, a herald of Galactus, a possessed Thing that rivaled Thor, and even the Juggernaut on his own. Why would this be any different?"
"Because those beings weren't focused solely on killing Peter!" Steve nearly yelled "I saw how that thing fought Spider-man, it was doing everything in its power to try and kill Peter as if that was its sole purpose! The others had other things to focus on rather than trying to kill someone they saw as beneath them"
"Well yeah but St-" Clint tried to reason before Steve suddenly turned around and began to walk away while dropping his Avengers I.D. card on the way out followed closely by Star Lord
"Captain, where are you going?" Black Panther questioned the first Avenger
"To tell Scarlet Spider, Venom and Toxin that Spider-man was killed because the Avengers didn't see helping him fight something on par with the Hulk as high on they're to do list" Steve said angirly as he kept walking
"And I have to go let Kitty know that her second favorite hero is dead" Star Lord stated "And probably the X-men while I'm at it. I know Bobby and Angelica will want to be told about this"
It was only after the duo left that some of the Avengers saw that Rogers wasn't the only one to leave his card. Carol, Hulk, Thor, Nova and Ms. Marvel had also left their I. D's as well
…
Peter didn't know where he was at the moment, all he could tell was that after the white blinding light he suddenly found himself on the ground with some city he or his suit doesn't recognize in the distance.
Oh and it was raining and he was slowly sinking into the mud
'Not the worse way to go I suppose' Peter thought as his vision was darkening and his suit showed that his lungs were filling up with blood 'Least it wasn't Norman, I'd never live that down!'
"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW!" came the thunderous roar of the monster that drowned out the thunder
"Was hoping he died" Peter mumbled out as he could faintly make out the approaching shape of the monster. It's red eye glowing ominously in the dark stormy night
As it stomped closer and closer to Peter he slowly held up an arm at the monster and aimed for its face "One last parting gift"
As the creature reached him and leaned down to grab him, he shot a glob of his suit on to its damaged eye.
"RAGH!" the monster howled in annoyance and soon pain as the artificial symbiote began to dig into the monster's damaged eye and began to form a small arc reactor
"Heh… boom" Peter chocked out as he felt his mouth filling up with blood and bits of broken teeth
KABOOOOM!
The arc reactor erupted in the monster's eye and to Peter's amazement actually blew a chink of its face off
"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-RAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHH!" the monster slammed its hands into the ground in agony uprooting the entire area and sending Peter's broken battered form skipping across the muddied ground painfully
A large partially buried boulder broke Peter's fall and sadly his spine but at this point Peter couldn't even feel a thing. He was now propped up against the rock looking up towards the dark sky with the occasional flash of lightning illuminating the area that looked like it was just at the epicenter of a sub atomic explosion
'M-Might as well have…' Peter thought tiredly as he looked to see the monster had slumped to its knees gripping the damaged side of its face and glaring at Peter with more hate and loathing in its eye that he hasn't seen in someone since the day the Hulk returned to earth to get revenge on the Illuminati
The suit finally lost power and the large spider shaped arc reactor and his chest went dark, along with his lenses. The monster huffed as it stood and began to approach Peter with it's hands forming into fists
With the brief bursts of light from the storm Peter could see that the small explosion had blew off a portion of the monster's brow and its eye leaving part of the bone underneath exposed and cracked slightly
'Least I caused some damage in the end' Peter thought as the being lifted its arms up and readied to bring them down on his broken beaten body 'Okay just for fun I'm going to make one last joke at the universe'
"W-W-Would a little… d-d-divine s-s-support… been too m-m-much to ask f-for?" Peter choked out
Just as the arms came down a figure rammed into the monster and sent it flying away and into a pile of uprooted trees and boulders
KOOOOM!
Peter's eyes widened slightly as he looked to see a figure standing over him. A flash of lightning revealed it to be a woman…
She had raven black hair, dressed in a red and gold armored bustier, some sort of blue skirt attached to it, knee high red and gold boots, a gold tiara with a red star on it, silver bracelets on her wrists and a red cape flowing in the wind. She was also armed with a sword and a shield with a glowing rope on her hip
To Peter she looked like a goddess who was ready to kick ass and look great doing it
'Now this is a sight I won't mind seeing in my final moments' Peter thought as his vision went dark
…
Diana more commonly known to the world as Wonder Woman saw Doomsday began to rise from her initial assault as she contacted the rest of the League with her ear piece "I've discovered what came through the portal, it looks like Doomsday"
"Which one?" came the voice of Superman, not hers but one from another world and from what she's seen so far, more powerful than her's ever was. She figured that she'd have to enter her god like state to match the man in power
"Yours from the looks of it" Diana frowned as she saw that it's face was badly damaged "Wherever it went after somehow escaping the Phantom Zone, it wasn't pleasant for him. He's greatly wounded on the right side of his face"
"Understood, me, Batman and the Flash are inbound" Superman said
"Copy that" Diana said as she looked down to see what Doomsday was fighting and was surprised to see it was a man in some sort of armored suit. Her eyes widened as she kneels down to check on them "I've found something else, a man in an armored suit but he and the suit appeared to be badly damaged"
"Are they alive?" Batman questioned
Diana leaned in and listed for some sigh that they were, she saw slight movement coming form the head and she could faintly hear a heartbeat through the armor but it was fading "Yes but not for long unless we get him immediate medical attention"
"Understood" Batman said
Diana checked over the man's appearance and saw his helmet lift ever so slightly at her. She sent the unknown person a friendly smile, hoping that the movement meant he was still alive and not because of the wind "Hey there, it's going to be alright? We're here to help"
She didn't hear the person answer mainly because Doomsday's roar drowned out even the thunder above as he began to charge towards her and the man
Diana narrowed her eyes and readied her shield and sword to face the approaching monster when suddenly a red and blue blur smacked into Doomsday and sent him flying several hundred feet away and into the tree line. The figure was revealed to be Superman who was clutching his hand in slight pain
"Damn, every time it feels like I'm punching a brick wall without my powers"
Superman than looked down at the downed man behind Wonder Woman and scanned him with his X-ray vision to see how bad he was hurt. His eyes widened at the state of the man's body, all of his ribs were either fractured or broken, one arm was dislocated while the other was broken in three places and his spine had four cracked vertebrae near the center and at the base of the skull. His skull was fractured and filling with blood and Clark swore he saw a tumor.
Oh and the man was filling with more blood in places it didn't belong than Clark was comfortable seeing in a living person
"My god, how is he still alive…" Superman said in slight shock
Diana kneeled down to check on the man "How bad is it Superman?"
"Bad enough that I doubt even I would be still alive unless someone up there really likes me" Superman said before his super hearing picked up Doomsday approaching them. He also heard Batman's jet approaching at Mach two and the Flash suddenly blitzed past him and headed straight for Doomsday's location "Wonder Woman, get him out of here, we're handle Doomsday"
"I can still fight Superman" Diana said with some annoyance
"I know" Superman said as he rose into the air "But I think that man needs you more than we need you at the moment"
He then shot off towards the distant fighting before she could reply.
"Men" Diana said with a roll of her eyes as she contacted Cyborg "Victor, boom tube to my location now. And prep the med bay for critical condition"
"Copy that" Cyborg said as a boom tube opened before Diana and the unknown man.
She carefully lifted the man and made her way into the portal just as Superman with a bloody nose came crashing through the trees and impacted in the ground not too far from where she and the man just were
And done.
So next chapter the Justice League or most of them take on Doomsday while Peter goes through the weird limbo thing that most heroes do when they are literally walking up to death and saying take me! Also we're see Kaine's, Venom, Toxin, Booby's, Angelica's, and Kitty's reactions to Peter's 'death' along with a few X-men who liked the wall crawler
As for the DC universe timeline, around the time of Rebirth so after New 52 Superman dies (Finally) and after Doomsday is supposedly sent to the Phantom Zone, why he was in the Marvel universe will be explained later
