History
On the Earth-958, after he was bitten by a radioactive spider, Flash Thompson became the criminal Spider. Forcing Peter Parker to develop gear for him to improve his skills, Peter initially assumed that Flash was going to use these powers as a hero, only to be shocked when the Spider's public debut saw him steal various jewels. With the aid of tech provided by Doctor Octavius, Peter was able to defeat Flash, whose powers were subsequently removed by the Fantastic Four before they could permanently bond to his DNA, leaving Thompson to be arrested.[1]
