Isekai into Marvel/DC

Chapter 132 Let there be Doppelganger

I couldn’t get a hold of Venom or the Iron Spider so I had Peter describe what happened. Since it’s from the description of a third-person fight the fight might have been less realistic. Venom seems like the type of guy to embellish how quickly he won the fight and that’s exactly what happened. If Iron Spider wasn’t with him they’d have gotten. ‘I beat the other guy easily.’

Now, the Iron Spider was Peter in the comics so who was the Iron Spider now? Could it be Kaine, the clone of Peter or was it someone else? Questions to guess later. He began to let me know what the Iron Spider said. “She made it clear that the fight was actually difficult.” Okay, so the Iron Spider was a girl then, that was good to know. “She said they met the Doppelganger spider.”

Third-person knowledge from Spiderman

The Iron Spider patrolled with Venom. He made a few crude remarks which she ignored. Doppelganger was a magical creature wearing a similar outfit to Spiderman but it was less intelligent, worked mostly on instinct, and had six arms. It was also stronger, faster, and had built-in razor-sharp talons for killing his enemies. This surprisingly beat the absolute dogshit out of Venom.

He was cocky. Venom not only was new to his powers but because of his sudden boost in strength, he vastly overestimated his abilities. The spider sense cancellation worked both ways and the brutal onslaught had parts of the symbiote ripped off and reforming as Venom had to run away or he’d have been beaten into the ground. Flashes face was exposed from how much symbiote was stripped before Iron Spider managed to land a good hit.

The Iron Spider wasn’t the futuristic version like that of Tony Stark. It was barely working using any material you could get suit. The attack that finally landed was a built-in shotgun blast from two double-barrel shotguns stored on the chest of the robot. It was the cheap and dirty version of Tony Starks repulsor blast. It was also the first attack either of them landed.

The attack was enough to clear a crowd but even four shotgun rounds of birdshot was only enough to barely phase it. Flash used the attack which stunned Doppelganger to land a brutal blow. Even still, it jumped away after being hurt… That might have been the only reason both weren’t killed. If it had stayed in the feral state and just kept attacking Venom they would have lost.

Now, with enough time to catch their breaths, Iron Spider managed to get Venom to work together with her. They needed a plan and Flash wasn’t the plan-making type. It was like a feral animal and in the short time they made the plan it began attacking people again. They met him with a mouthful of corpse meat and four hands full of flesh.

The creature having regained itself charged at them again, this time targeting the Iron Spider first. Now, in terms of durability, the Iron Spider might have pulled ahead of Venom by a bit but that didn’t matter if she couldn’t avoid the attacks nearly as good as him. Every punch thrown or swipe of the claws would strike the less mobile robot.

Thankfully she let him know a plan in case she was targeted. She would run away if he did that and let Venom attack Doppelganger until he drew its attention. It was a great plan but even swinging from web to web Iron Spider was slower than people with Spider powers. Five sharp talons cut the webbing making her drop as the other hand rended the metal chest cover causing a small explosion of shotgun rounds.

It was enough to scare the Doppelganger off her though as Venom slammed down into his back with both feet. As they landed on the ground Venom put the plan into play. She had given him a sonic shrieker gadget made specifically for fighting against Venom. It would hurt him more than Doppelganger but since there were two of them and only one enemy, it gave her free reign to use her trump card.

The shrieking was loud enough to stun both of the super-powered spiders. As the Doppelganger started to recover it came back to the Iron Spider standing over it with a gigantic arm attachment pointed at him. The blaster was stolen from a destroyed Iron Man suit and had never been tested because it only had one blast's worth of energy not connected to the power source.

The blast was meant for a suit that weighed hundreds of pounds more. It severely hurt the Doppelganger but it broke the Iron Spider's arm and launched her away from the almost defeated Doppelganger. Now that he was hurt Venom had gained the advantage. As if it sensed its impending death. The Doppelganger decided to do a suicide attack on the one that hurt it.

It charged at her and would have killed her if it wasn’t for her second trump card. Two large spider limbs come forward and block the savage talon blades. It only takes a few swings to rip through them but then another two come forward to defend her. It became a race against time as it ripped through the second set only leaving the last left.

Finally, Venom managed to rip a telephone pole out of the ground and impaled the Doppelganger after a single attack on the last set of legs. Doppelganger thrashed grabbing at the spike impaling his chest before his movements slowed then halted. Venom killed the Doppelganger right before the Iron Spider would have been put in trouble.

“Wait, so Doppelganger is dead then? Any chance you have his corpse lying around? It should be very magical and would make good materials for research.” As he stares at me like I said the most fucked up thing in the world I remembered. ‘Oh right, this guy is a goody-two-shoes.’ Even talking about a corpse is a no-go for him. I ask out of curiosity

“Do you know who the Iron Spider is? It’s normally you or Miles in the comics so I don’t have the foggiest idea of who it would be.” He sat back determined not to leak any more secrets like he had on accident earlier when he outed his girlfriend's secret identity. I asked. “If I make a guess will you give me a yes or no?” He sat back with his arms crossed before I saw the smallest shake of his head in confirmation.

“Alright… Is she a relative of someone else on the team?” He shook his head no. “Have you seen her face?” Another shake to confirm he had. “Was she white?” He interrupted. “I don’t see how that would-.” I cut him off. “Dude, I’m not being racist there’s too many people it can be if I don’t narrow down the race.” He sighed and shook his head negatively. “Asian?” Another negative. “Black?” Another sigh and head shake in confirmation. “That… Wow, that narrows it down a lot. Hmmm.” 

Best guess would be a War Machine but sex swapped, he was male in the comics though… Smart black women in the comics… That leaves Shuri, Riri, and Moon Girl for Marvel and… No smart female black superheroes for DC. Step it up DC! Well out of my choices, I asked. “Riri Williams?” He was so shocked I guessed it from that information, and he let me know I was right. “What!? How’d you guess that?”

I just burst out laughing as he explained how they found out her identity. “At one point a hologram version of Tony Stark popped up and said her name before checking to see if anyone else was in the room. After he outed her she explained that she just found out she was Tony Stark’s daughter.” Now it was my turn to be surprised. I spit out the drink I was sipping on as he told his story. I couldn’t help but drop a bomb on him now to make up for how off-guard he caught me.

“You lied. When I asked if she was related to anyone you said she wasn’t.” He just looked at me confused before as I couldn’t hold my smile back anymore. “I checked your blood in the DNA database to see if you had any relatives and discovered that Arno Stark is your father. She’s your cousin Peter.”
