A'Kurru U'mbaya (Earth-616) VS Aaron Aikman (Earth-31411)

A'Kurru U'mbaya was a Wakandan bio-chemist who was empowered with the ability to transform his flesh into wood through his experiments. He used his powers to try to seize the throne. Shape-shifting: Icon has the power to transform his flesh into wood-- and his head appears elongated into an African mask. Although this wood seems more durable and impervious than normal wood, he is also able to control it to give him limited shape-shifting abilities, such as elongating his limbs and forming weapons with his hands. Icon can also cause a similar transformation in others-- transforming them into replicas of himself (without the shape-shifting abilities) under his direct control.

Aaron Aikman was a scientist working for the Ikegami Medical Center, specializing in the medical application of insect venoms. When he was twenty, Hannah, the daughter of his boss Kaori Ikegami, was critically injured after being hit by a car and he volunteered his services to help her recover. Eventually, he and Kaori became romantically involved. When he was twenty-four, Aaron secretly underwent an experimental treatment that resequenced his DNA with that of a genetically-altered spider, developing superhuman abilities. Building a suit of cybernetic armor to augment his powers, Aaron became the Spider-Man to combat the super villain Redeye. More villains emerged, but Aaron managed to defeat them until he was confronted with a cyborg woman called Naamurah, who had been kidnapping people. Naamurah easily defeated him, leaving him with a cryptic warning that there were others like her. While upgrading his armor for a rematch with Naamurah, he was confronted by Kaori, who he had grown estranged from. She attempted to restart their relationship, but when he asked her if the reason she became distant was because Hannah had died, Kaori furiously left.
