Do not listen to Mephisto's thrall, my compatriot. A devil is not to be trusted.

History

Mephisto was the God of Damnation and Fear. Wanting the power to defeat Dormammu, Prowler sought out Mephisto. He gave Brown a vial of his blood, in exchange that he will receive his soul; however, he was persuaded to not to take the vial while Scarlet Spider took it instead. Attempting to free his soul, Ben traveled to Mephisto's Realm.

Mephisto took the form of Spider-Girl due to Reilly's history with her Earth-41940 counterpart to convince him to leave to no avail. He also sent Silver Sable and a werewolf Spider-Man to stop him, but he pushed on. Mephisto ended up losing Ben's soul to Anansi in a game of poker. Still, he attempted to regain his soul by keeping Ben in his realm, but one of his subjects, Spider-Woman, rebelled and helped him escape.
