Death Web is the nickname that has been given to a project in the Weapon X facility. In this project, the participants are enhanced in some way, via a serum or bio/genetic engineering, to have traits indicative of arachnids, particularly, spiders. Spider-Man is one such subject. Otto Octavius is currently the head of this project.
As everyone has a different physiology, the results of each participant also differs. Some may gain all kinds of arachnid-like abilities while others may only gain strength, or may mutate into a monstrous arachnid body. Also, very few people's physiology allows it to be tampered with in such a way, and survive. Many subjects have died while undergoing the process or sometime thereafter. Some of the mutations, such as poisonous blood or hardening of skin have killed the subjects.
