Background

Ana, now calling herself Queen, reappeared in New York and quickly amassed an army of drones from persons carrying the insect gene. After taking residence in a high rise she easily neutralised an early sabotage from Captain America and Spider-Man before taking them both prisoner. After waking to find himself inside 'the hive' Queen forcefully kissed Spider-man and expressed how she wanted him as her mate. As this happened the military and S.H.E.I.L.D. where outside waiting to hear word from Steve Rogers. Captain America and Spider-Man soon escaped to the roof, where they found Soria. Queen sent some civilians to their death and the wallcrawler tackled her for a second time. He was overpowered again before Captain America knocked her off the building.

In kissing Spider-Man, the Queen had passed over a serum which contained specific genetic material that would incite a transformation within him. Over the next few days Peter had begun to feel gradually worse. What initially felt like the flu quickly became apparent as being something far more sinister. A physical and mental metamorphosis had begun to take effect on Peter, and soon he had grown a coarse fur over his skin and his eyes had split into four. During this time an emergency briefing took place at S.H.E.I.L.D. regional headquarters led by Captain America, to discuss the threat the Queen posed and how they might deal with her. As the Queen herself relocated 'the hive' to the New York underground.

The Queen eventually tracked Spider-Man to an alleyway, half transformed into a human spider. She told him the change was inevitable, and after immobilizing him brought him back to the hive. Queen then made a live broadcast explaining that everyone had a limited time to evacuate a 600 mile radius of NYC before a chemical bomb that would destroy only human life was detonated. As S.H.E.I.L.D. and Captain America faltered over evacuation plans, back at the hive Spider-Man had now become a huge human-sized spider.

One of the captives in the hive was Professor David Jaffe, the man behind Ana's super soldier program and the serum passed over to Spider-Man from the Queen. Jaffe revealed that the mutation on Spider-man was never meant to take effect this fast and that no one could withstand a physical change in such a short time. Also in a bizarre twist that the Spider was pregnant. Soon after this the huge spider went into a rage before dying. Angered,Ana then set the device to go off in ten minutes. As Nick Fury and Captain America coordinated air support and the movements of members of the X-Men in the underground, Peter Parker re-emerged in human form from the spider carcass. Spider-Man dispatched of a drone that was about to detonate the device, and in the wake of a sonic scream from his foe managed to gather his remaining strength to defuse the bomb. As Queen was apparently killed in separate explosion.

The Queen more than any other foe, had a lasting and seemingly permanent effect on Spider-Man. Specifically his powers. Following his mutation for the first time his body could now produce an organic webbing from small holes in his wrists, making his famous web shooters obsolete. His Spider sense had altered significantly too in that he could now 'hear' or understand all insects or bugs around him. Finally his strength had been increased and he can now lift a maximum of 15 tons.

All of this was undone at the end of One More Day, when Peter made a deal with Mephisto. He lost his organic webs and his ability to talk to insects (which he never used anyway). Oddly, Peter's powers were altered during "The Other" storyline (see: Morlun and Ero), much the same way that they had been in this one. Marvel editorial obviously hadnt been paying attention.
