History

Carlos LaMuerto was the latest in the line of crimelords known as Black Tarantula. He briefly travelled to Japan and joined The Hand. During his tenure, he gained numerous superpowers, most notably immortality.

Back in New York City, he found Spider-Man and Doppelganger fighting on his territory, with the latter expressing his intention of stealing LaMuerto's interdimensional teleporter. Finding the teleporter went missing during the battle, he joined the Spider-Men to bring the thief to justice.

Among the Spider-Men

Believing the Symbiote Hive was lacking strong leadership, Black Tarantula returned to Klyntar to take over the planet. He defeated Carnage and Venom and took out their sects. Unfortunately for Carlos, Scream was able to rally the rest of her troops to dethrone him.
