[There is a nerdy looking teenager on the Omnicomm, clad in a slightly more advanced version of the Spider-Man suit than many who knew any of his counterparts would be familiar with.]

..so...um..Hi? Sorry, Never really had to introduce myself to a 31st-century superhero team. I guess I should just jump right in? I'm Peter. Peter Parker. And it case It wasn't obvious, I'm also Spider-Man. Powers are being able to do whatever a spider can. Well, mostly. The webbing isn't biological, it's actually a shear-thinning adhesive I made which is...not really something I need to talk about right now.

I've been doing this for a while, already, although not really anywhere near this kind of scale. Mostly just normal crime. Biggest thing I've ever had to deal with by myself was fighting a guy with wings on the outside of a cargo plane. That was flying. And also invisible. Which was kind of completely terrifying, but not thing eating everything that will ever exist terrifying.

Also, I should add one more thing just so people don't think I'm talking to myself like a crazy person. Or crazier person, anyways. Apparently, she thinks she can patch into the omnicomm to take it from here, so I'll let her do that.

Hello there. My name is Karen. I'm an AI developed by Tony Stark to assist Peter in his work as Spider-Man and help him control the various functions of his suit. It's nice to meet you.

Anyways, that's me, I guess. What about you guys? Who am I teaming up with?

[ Robbie has a confused expression on his face. It's not that he's mystified, but the wide-eyed, half smile combination of surprised and tickled looks the same. ]

I'm sorry. I think I had an energy bubble in my ear.

[ He whacks the base of his palm against his temple, and energy balls do indeed materialize and bounce around. Sadly, none specifically from his ear. He's still working on that. ]

You said you're Peter. Parker. [ The delivery is staccato, but there's a definite "this is a question" rise at the end. ] Who is... also. Spider-Man.

And you are very smol.

[ This is worse than looking older than Captain America. ]

... look, so I can have some sort of baseline for the universal differences, do you have any plans to one day be a plucky photographer for the Daily Bugle, are you engaged, and - [ Robbie counts on his fingers, eying Peter dubiously. ] yeah, is the show Secret Hospital on TV where you're from? It's a soap.

...I wasn't exactly planning on it, I'm fifteen, and I have no idea. It's not like I watch a lot of soap operas to begin with.

And why is are you so focused on how tall I am? I'm 5'8". That's not short, that's above average for 15.

Whoops, spoiler alert. How am I supposed to know how old you are it's not like you've got a 'bottled on' date? And you should. It's not as bad as Passions. We all caught up? Good.

Dude, relax. I'm not calling you short. I was 5'5" at 15, and there's this low-key awkwardness going on because when I was your age and you were, mm, about my age now? I was a big fan. That's why you're smol - you should be 35 or something by now.

We're not caught up on everything. Unless you really want me to start calling you Bubble Man the entire time we're here. Because I will totally do that.

Bubble Man would fit in better with the Legion of Superheroes, but it's too late to change now, especially because we're way overdue for Wolverine. I don't want to turn around like an idiot every time he says 'bub.'

So, intro. Ladies and Spider-Men, boys, girls and others - children of all ages! Tonight and every night until the Time Trapper gets bored, the masked marvel beams into your omnicomm LIVE! Here he is, folks, the one, the only, Speedball!
