The Beyonder and Mephisto lay a wager: mortal life isn’t worth living, and existence isn’t worth continuing. They settle their differences with a wager: Spider-Man vs. Zarathos, if Spider-Man can shirk his responsibility, even if that means leaving the Kingpin to die, Beyonder wins and reality is destroyed.
