"A dynamic, animated-style poster for a dark superhero web novel, Mad Spider, set in a dystopian cyberpunk New York, Earth-731, 2030. Center on Mad Spider (Peter Parker), a chaotic anti-hero in a tattered blood-red Spider-Man costume with a jagged black spider emblem, his manic grin exuding Joker-like madness and Deadpool-style humor. He’s mid-swing, glowing red webbing trailing, clutching a sparking EMP device, eyes wild with pain and defiance. Beside him, Gwen Stacy, a fierce blonde heroine with intense blue eyes, clings tightly, her futuristic tablet glowing with hacked data, her expression blending love and resolve. They’re framed against the crumbling Oscorp Tower, flames and smoke rising, neon-lit city below pulsing with riots and bounty screens flashing their faces. A faint blue multiverse portal glows in the background, Spider-Man 2099’s silhouette subtly visible. The art style is vibrant yet gritty, blending anime sharpness with Western comic book energy, featuring bold outlines, dramatic neon pink, blue, and red lighting, and a textured dystopian feel. At the bottom, in bold futuristic font, include the tagline: ‘Madness weaves the web—dare to follow?’.....

“Heroes killed my parents. Now I wear the mask of one. Until I can bury them all.” At seven years old, Hernan Vale watched his parents — two powerful heroes — brutally executed in their own home by the very people they trusted most: the legendary super-team known as the Zodiac 13. They thought he was dead. They made sure the world blamed villains. They covered their tracks. But Hernan survived — and never forgot. Ten years later, under a false name, Hernan enters the prestigious Hero Academy, hailed as a prodigy. To the world, he’s a rising star. To his classmates, he’s charming, calm, unstoppable. But inside? He’s a weapon. Waiting. Smiling. Counting names. As he trains to become a licensed hero, fights real villains, and rises through the ranks, Hernan plays the long game — earning the trust of the Zodiac, learning their routines, studying their weaknesses. One by one, he’ll bring them down. And this time, he won’t hide in the closet. But the deeper he goes, the more blood he spills — the more he wonders if he’s becoming worse than the monsters he’s hunting. And when love, loyalty, and lies collide, Hernan may have to decide: Will he save the world like they think he will... or finish burning it down?

As Sota dives deeper into the case, he uncovers a spiraling web of deaths, each tied to the next in a backwards chain, hinting at a disturbing force behind the murders.

With shadowy figures watching from the sidelines and time itself seemingly unraveling, The Reverse Cycle explores fate, manipulation, and the terrifying idea that the killer may already be dead.
