About this Spider-Man
During the Acts of Vengeance crossover (Spectacular Spider-Man #158 onward, 1989–90), Peter was given the Enigma Force, the power behind Captain Universe. With flight, energy blasts and strength far beyond his normal level, he punched the Hulk into orbit (Amazing Spider-Man #328) and destroyed the Tri-Sentinel (#329). The power left him once the threat had passed.
Fight rules: both fighters at their peak, no preparation, no allies, only their own powers and personal gear. A win is a knockout, a restraint they can't escape, or a forced surrender. The percentages are fan estimates, not official information.
Powers
Flight, energy blasts, heightened senses, great durability, and strength without a clear ceiling. The Uni-Power answers the threat in front of it.
Gear
None needed.
Signature feats
Gained the power in Spectacular Spider-Man #158 (1989) and beat Graviton. Punched the Grey Hulk into orbit (ASM #328). Destroyed the Tri-Sentinel (ASM #329). What If? vol. 2 #31 imagines him keeping the power.
Weaknesses
The power was temporary and he never fully understood it. At its peak, few limits showed.
Fighting style
Peter's instincts at a power level far above his usual.
