History
Origin
After his parents' divorce, Adam Reilly was raised by his mother. Adam began to show heavy interest in sporting activities at age six, hoping to one day climb Mt. Everest. This dream stayed with Adam for eighteen years. After graduating college, Adam joined an organized group of mountain climbers. However, before he could accomplish his goal of eventually climbing Mt. Everest, Adam's left hand, along with a spider, was crushed in an avalanche, activating his mutant abilities. However, the rock that crushed his hand held an alien symbiote inside of it that restored the spider to life. As the spider's body was weak, the symbiote looked for a new host and bit Adam, granting him spider powers along with his mutant powers. Taking after Spider-Man, Adam decided to fight crime using his newfound abilities along with a color-swapped costume and a makeshift "web-spinning" baton.
