Spider-Verse was originally a 2014 Amazing Spider-Man comic book storyline written by Dan Slott that featured nearly every variant of Spider-Man that had appeared in the comics and other media in the over fifty years since Spider-Man's creation at that point, all under attack by Morlun and his family, the Inheritors. At the end, characters such as Spider-Gwen, Spider-Man Noir and the Web Warriors span off into their own series. The 2017 event Venomverse was structured in a similar way with different versions of Venom instead. In 2018, Slott and Marvel followed with Spider-Geddon was released, and in 2022, we had End of the Spider-Verse, which gave us Spider-Boy at the end.
