Peter Parker and Miles Morales have a new ongoing series together, The Spectacular Spider-Men, from Marvel Comics in March 2024. Well, it seems so do a couple of Peter Parker's clones, Ben Reilly – currently known as Chasm, and part of Madelyne Pryor's Goblin Queen entourage in the Limbo embassy. And Kaine Parker, last seen cut from the Web of Life and Destiny, causing him to cease to exist at the end of the Spider-Verse event. After Shathra was defeated at the hands of the Spider-Army, Neith, the original creator of the Web, as gratitude for their efforts restored those who had been cut from the Web, which included Kaine. Now it looks like he has a series to join.
Because, now Kaine and Chasm are together again in Chasm: Curse Of Kaine. "Coming in 2024, Spider-Man's two most famous clones careen on a collision course at each other!" and asking, presumably from Ben Reilly to Kaine Parker, "am I my brother's keeper?"
Echoing the story of Cain and Abel from the book of Genesis…
Now Abel kept flocks, and Cain worked the soil. 3In the course of time Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the Lord. And Abel also brought an offering—fat portions from some of the firstborn of his flock. The Lord looked with favor on Abel and his offering, but on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor. So Cain was very angry, and his face was downcast. Then the Lord said to Cain, "Why are you angry? Why is your face downcast? If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must rule over it." Now Cain said to his brother Abel, "Let's go out to the field." While they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him. Then the Lord said to Cain, "Where is your brother Abel?" "I don't know," he replied. "Am I my brother's keeper?"
