    In the epilogue to Spider-Island, Madame Web told Peter that he could cure himself and no longer had to be Spider-Man. Peter turned the offer down.

    What if Peter took the offer?

    I imagine a Peter in this universe would've ended up like a Doc Ock in his own right if he went full misanthrope and didn't get his powers until well into adulthood.

    I'd probably bounce off of this and say a Peter in this setting probably would've ended up recruited by Norman Osborn. Probably take the idea of Norman always seeing Peter as the son he always wanted to the logical extreme where this Peter ended up as the protege of Norman Osborn.

    Kind of reminds me of the What if from the 90s, where a young Matt Murdock got adopted by the Kingpin.

    Yes it has an entre plotline to be exact. I am an author and I write various fanpics and released a couple of novels in Greece and sometime in the near future I will be releasing one of these novels in english from On Time Books.
    For this one it goes like this...
    Basically, it's the story of Kaine who had finally managed to find happiness by managing to get rid himself of the clone degeneration process and then having a wife and a child, a family to speak. Sadly a tragic accident takes place and Kaine once again is overwhelmed by his dark and violent impulses and decides to become a new kind of Spider-Man... The Sorrow Spider-Man. Both Peter and Miles atre trying to restore logic to Kaine but it's the interaction of a surprise character to force Kaine to abandon his desire for revenge. However Kaine's Spider-Man is still quite violent and more intense than either Peter or Miles.
    That could be a very compelling story. Thanks for sharing.

    Would be a very interesting, if dark, take on Spider-Man's story.

    Hmm, that could be something, too.

    A spider bitten by radioactive human. He becomes Man-Spider and has to deal with the same shit as we do.

    What if Spider-man was actually allowed to be happy?

    Brilliant idea! This touches on one of the reasons I've always liked Doc Ock so much: he's very much a look at what Peter might have become if he'd not been raised by people like Ben and May. Octavius had a horrible upbringing, was bullied, and eventually turned his brilliance to crime. He never lost the bitterness and arrogance that Peter had pre-spider.

    In this Alternate reality, Spider man is filthy rich and The world regards him as its best Super hero; He is of course in Reality evil as hell. His big project is trying to recapture the Captain Universe force. Made a deal with Mephisto to kill His Greatest threat and nemesis Aunt May( who was some kind of Super powered mutant here I guess.) As a consequence He is in a loveless marriage with Mary Jane Watson and they are destined to bring a child into this world who will bring great carnage and sorrow and awfullness to the world. For fun, He assumes Villaious identities like his Slinger personas and also Chameleon. On this world 616 heros are villains and the Villains are heroes generally so he is oppossed by the Spectacular Six- Otto, Electro, Sandman, Vulture and Black Cat.

    What if Harry Osborn was a villanous Spider-Man and Peter was an heroic Doctor Octopus?

    Sounds like the Amazing Spider who was luring other Spider-Men to his world so he could drain their lifeforces to empower himself further, back in the Identity Wars crossover between the Amazing Spider-Man/Incredible Hulks/Deadpool Annuals of 2010.

    That would be cool. There was a reality depicted in the Spider-Geddon arc of Spider-Gwen where Harry became Spider-Man and Gwen became a heroic (Green) Goblin until the deaths of both Harry and her father caused something in her to break, partly due to the neurotech in her suit going haywire.

    What if Uncle Ben died in 9/11? Or maybe that would be too controversial.

    Would Peter have fought in the Iraqi war or something? (I remember a fanmade comic where he fought in the Vietnam war)

    And Life Story did nod to that, with Peter/Spidey considering whether or not to join Flash and Captain America in Vietnam in the first issue, set in the 1960s a few real-world years after Peter was first bitten by that spider.
