Character Bio - The Jackel, an insane ex-professor, with the help of Norman Osborn, experimented with cloning. Angry at Spider-Man for the death of Gwen Stacy, he cloned the wall-crawler, to create an army to oppose him. Ben Reilly was the most successful of the clones. Taking the identity of Scarlet Spider, Ben became a Crime Fighter like his "brother" Peter Parker, but because they both shared the same memories (a side effect of the cloning), it was put to question who was the "real" Peter Parker, and who was the clone. Eventually deciding that Ben was the original, Peter went into retirement with his wife, Mary Jane, and Ben took over the role of Spider-Man. During a face off with Green Goblin in which Peter joined the battle, Ben sacrificed himself to save Peter from a lethal blade in the Goblin's glider. His body decomposed rapidly, which revealed in the end that Peter was the original, and that Ben Reilly was in fact, the clone.

-Rulings and Clarifications-

• Q: Can a figure with a Webbing Marker be moved by special powers such as Martian Manhunter's Telepathic Directive?
• A: The webbed figure cannot move on his own, but could be moved by other powers that don't require that figure to move on it's own. So Telepathic Directive would not work, since you have to move him, but if you used Spider-Man's Web Slinger, it WOULD work, since the opponent is just placing that figure adjacent to him.
