Biography
Reilly Tyne was a male human born the son of Ben Reilly and Elizabeth Tyne on Earth-982 in the Multiverse.
Before he reached his teens, his inherited powers began to manifest but brought with them clonal degeneration. Kaine, the degenerated first clone of Peter Parker, found him, and placed him within a regeneration tank to slow the process. Kaine attempts to use Reilly to resurrect Daredevil, but this causes part of Daredevil and Zarathos' souls to enter Reilly, giving him a demonic appearance and abilities and aging him into a young adult. After learning to assume a human form, Reilly becomes an attorney and the superhero Darkdevil, taking after Daredevil. (Darkdevil v1 #3)
Darkdevil has fought alongside Spider-Girl several times, as well as the semi-retired Spider-Man. Neither Spider-Man nor Spider-Girl are aware of his genetic relation to them, but Darkdevil has hinted that he owes his existence to the original Daredevil, Spider-Man, and Kaine. (Spider-Girl v1 #17)
