Synopsis
After sensing that Silk was released from captivity by Spider-Man, Morlun stated that the Great Hunt, where he and his family would kill every Spider-Totem in the Multiverse, had begun.[1]
As the Inheritors killed numerous Spider-themed heroes, the time-displaced Spider-Man (Otto Octavius) created a team to fight the enemies.[2]
Meanwhile, other villains were embarked in similar quests. Earth-TRN123's Goblin tried to gather the DNA from different Spider-Men across multiple universes,[3] and the Multiversal Sinister Six attempted to conquer numerous universes by taking the Isotope-8 from one in specific.[4]
And while the Great Hunt takes place, the spider army must find a way to defeat Morlun, Karn, and the rest of the Inheritors once and for all.

Issues
Notes
- The event had a 5-paged prelude in Free Comic Book Day Vol 2014 Guardians of the Galaxy.
- Four teams were formed during this event: Peter's team, Otto's team, Spider-Men (Earth-TRN461) and the Web-Warriors (Earth-TRN123).
- Writer Dan Slott mentioned that only eight versions of Spider-Man couldn't be used in Spider-Verse, including those partially owned by Sony Pictures (the Spider-Man from Sam Raimi's film trilogy, the Spider-Man from Marc Webb's film duology, the Spider-Man from Spider-Man: The New Animated Series, and the Spider-Man from The Spectacular Spider-Man).[18]
- Marvel's website has a Spider-Verse Scorecard written by Ben Morse, which lists most of the participating characters and provides "digital spotlights" of prior adventures where applicable. Notably, the Scorecard lists Spider-Ham 25th Anniversary Special Vol 1 1 as being set in Earth-25 instead of Earth-8311, and misspells "Assassin" as "Assasin" when referring to the Spider-Man from Earth-8351.
Trivia
- When asked if Spider-Boy would appear in Spider-Verse, Dan Slott sarcastically replied "Oh yeah, DC is going to let us do that, I'm sure. Let me call my DC contact right now.".[19]
- When asked on Twitter why the universe designations for Spider-Man Unlimited and Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends in Amazing Spider-Man Vol 3 7 and for Spider-Gwen in Amazing Spider-Man Vol 3 9 differed from those listed in the Marvel Universe Appendix, Slott responded that "[unless] mentioned in actual stories, designations in Wiki entries and handbooks don't count."
