Richard Parker (Richard Parker II)

Richard Parker II is the son of Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson in the alternate universe of Earth-6160. Inheriting his father's spider-powers — wall-crawling, enhanced strength, agility, and spider-sense — he takes up the mantle of Spider-Man as his world's next-generation web-slinger.

Richard Parker steps onto the page in 2024's Ultimate Spider-Man #1, Marco Checchetto's artwork announcing his arrival in Marvel's Modern Age with unmistakable visual flair. A fresh face in the Ultimate line's bold new chapter, he moves through a world populated by Spider-Man, Peter Parker, Mysterio, May Parker, and Harry Osborn — a remarkable orbit of iconic Marvel names that signals just how close to the heart of this universe he sits. Across Ultimate Spider-Man, Ultimate Spider-Man by Jonathan Hickman, and Ultimate Endgame, his 30 appearances trace an impressively concentrated run for such a recent debut. If you're following Marvel's reinvention of its Ultimate universe, Richard Parker is a name you'll want to know early.
