The mini comic book series based on the game's lore sees all of the superheroes and villains getting into various adventures as all of them try to untangle the mess that Dr. Doom and his 2099 counterpart created by messing up reality.

The first issue of the comic pits two of the Spider family members against each other as both of them try to restore the Web of Life and Destiny, which has been damaged by a rift opening up in the sky of Tokyo 2099.

Though both Peni and Peter Parker are trying to achieve the same goal, both of them vastly disagree on how to save the Web of Life and Destiny. This led to both of them forming their own team as they tried to accomplish things their own way.

As many fans of the game can guess, this is similar to the premise of the Tokyo 2099: Spider Islands map in Marvel Rivals. One team is tasked to help Master Weaver in repairing the damaged Web of Life and Destiny while the other squad tries their hardest to stop them.
