The Amazing Spider-man
Villian(s) introduced: The Lizard
We’ll have to wait and see….
The Spectacular Spider-man
New Character(s) introduced: Harry Osborn (new kid at school), Norman Osborn (evil scientist and business tycoon)
Villian(s) introduced: Doctor Octopus, The Scorpion, Norman Osborn (pre-Goblin)
Doctor Otto Octavius seeks revenge from Norman Osborn after Norman pulls his funding on his project. In order to seek revenge Octavius steals his project and turns himself into Doctor Octopus. He then attempts to destroy Ocorp and kill Osborn. Norman Osborn decides to create a Scorpion suit for his employee Mac Gargon and inject him with the OZ serum, so that Gargon can defeat Doc Ock. The Scorpion and Doc Ock battle at Oscorp, but Spider-man comes in and attacks them both. The battle results in Doc Ock escaping unsuccessful and wanting to kill not only Osborn, but also Spider-man, Scorpion driven insane and convinced by Doc Ock to help him defeat Norman Osborn, and Norman Osborn badly burned from an explosion and also angry that Spider-man has ruined his plans.
In the end Spider-man saves Gwen who was captured by Doc Ock, accidentally kills the insane Scorpion, and defeats Doc Ock. Doc Ock goes to prison and Norman Osborn seeks revenge on Spider-man who he blames for his burn scars and the overall ruin of his business empire. This also increases Harry’s hate for Spider-man for he shares the same opinion as his father as far as the ruin of his father’s company.
Note: Instead of J. Jonah Jameson hiring Mac Gargon, I thought I’d have Norman Osborn hire him.
The Ultimate Spider-man
New Character(s) introduced: Mary Jane (friend of Gwen), J. Jonah Jameson and Daily Bugle
Villian(s) introduced: Green Goblin
Norman Osborn finally becomes the Green Goblin in hopes of killing Spider-man who he sees as being the cause of the crumbling of Oscorp. To him Spider-man is a threat and the only way for Oscorp to return to power is for him to eliminate Spider-man so he can proceed with his secret dealings. He invents the Green Goblin persona after exposing himself the OZ drug, the same drug Mac Gragon was exposed to. He then attains superhuman abilities and creates the Goblin suit. He fakes the stealing of his glider and uses the Goblin to not only steal from other industries, but to portray himself as another one of the Goblin’s victims.
In the end he discovers that Peter is Spider-man and has Peter choose between Gwen and Mary Jane. Peter refuses to choose so the Green Goblin let’s Gwen, who he knows is Peter’s true love, fall to her death. Spider-man attempts to save her but she is already dead by the time he snatches her from the air. He then rescues Mary Jane (who now knows Spider-man’s true identity) and follows the Green Goblin back to Oscorp where it is believed that Norman Osborn is being held hostage.
Spider-man and the Green Goblin fight and as it seems Spider-man has won when Norman threatens Peter to kill him and get his revenge for his parents death. Norman confirms Peter’s suspicions that his parents were murdered by Osborn. As they talk Norman secretly prepares his glider to attack behind Peter’s back. Then Harry who has followed them to the warehouse and come to the door, where he believes his father his being held hostage, calls out for his father and Norman starts begging for mercy and acting as if Spider-man is going to kill him. Harry hears his father’s pleads from behind the locked door and thinks Spider-man is going to kill his father. Then Norman commands his glider to attack Spider-man from behind, but Spider-man senses it and jumps out of the way thus sending the glider through the chest of Norman. Harry hears his father’s scream and believes that Spider-man has killed his father. Peter while in distress of the whole event notices the wrist plate of Norman’s suit and sees a timer ticking away. He immediately realizes the warehouse is rigged with explosives and he busts down the door and scoops a struggling Harry up. He swings out just as it explodes.
In the end the public believes the Green Goblin is dead and that he is responsible for Gwen Stacy and Norman Osborn’s deaths. Harry thinks Spider-man killed his father and plots to find and kill him. Peter still suffering from Gwen’s death, gives up being Spider-man.
The Web of Spider-man
New Character(s) introduced: Eddie Brock (journalist at the Daily Bugle)
Villian(s) introduced: Sinister Six: Doctor Octopus (main villain), Electro, Sandman, Mysterio, Vulture, and Chameleon (replaces Kraven because I don’t think Kraven would work well in a movie)
Sinister Six is a team formed by Doc Ock in prison to help him escape as part of Harry Osborn’s plan to find and kill Spider-man. When out of prison they meet with Harry, explain their powers and how they got them, and agree to find Spider-man.
With Spider-man in hiding and Peter now moving on in his life with Mary Jane, a new heroine named Black Cat takes his place. But the Sinister Six is too much for her to handle so Peter decides become Spider-man again and go to her aide. However, they are still no match for them. So Peter uses the black symbiote he found and has been experimenting on to form a new suit that increases his powers. He and Black Cat are able to take members of the Sinister Six down one by one, but in the process Peter becomes much darker and even kills some members of the Sinister Six. Realizing he is slowly becoming more of a villain than a hero after an incident with the Sinister Six that results in Black Cat receiving amnesia, Peter removes the symbiote from his body. Spider-man fights the last members of the sinister six alive, Doc Ock and Electro, and defeats them leaving Harry again angry with Spider-man.
Harry is left examining a strange key which he finally inserts in the wall and unlocks the Goblin lair. Realizing his father was the Green Goblin, he decides to take up his on persona of the Hoblgoblin, and avenge his father.
Somewhere in this Eddie Brock rivals Peter and learns to hate him. He writes Spider-man off as a villain, but after Spider-man saves the day again he is fired and disgraced. He then finds the symbiote where Peter left it and bonds with it at the end setting up the final movie in the series.
The Sensational Spider-man
Villian(s) introduced: Venom,Hobgoblin
In the final movie, Peter battles Harry as the Hobgoblin and Eddie as Venom. Eddie and Harry work together but then when Eddie realizes he no longer needs Harry’s help he mortally wounds him. Harry realizes that he is at fault and he forgives Peter as he dies. Spider-man then fights Venom which has completely consumed Eddie and kills the symbiote.
Peter then marries Mary Jane and it seems that Spider-man will always be there to save the day.
Honestly I haven’t thought much about this last movie, but I thought it would be fitting for Peter to face his closest friend (Harry) and arguably his toughest adversary (Venom).
What do you think? Do you think these would be plausible sequels for the new The Amazing Spider-man? Comments and concerns are appreciated.
