Tyler Stone

Dealing with his son

Tyler's son Kron Stone, chronically neglected and physically abused by the family's robot nanny (it believed him to be a dog for a time), grew up to be an amoral murderer. His serial killings take the lives of Jake Gallows' extended family, resulting in his transformation into his era's Punisher.^[13] Kron, like many other rich people, has the ability to simply purchase his way out of any legal punishment and does so. This does not save him from death at Jake's hands.

Tyler interrupts his holographic observation of the Alchemax undersea colony rebuilding (Atlanteans had damaged it). He accepts the ashes of his son from his assistant Winston; then flushes them down the toilet.^[14]

Tyler and Kron appear in various flashbacks in the 2099 series that deals with Miguel's education. In one story, he gets into a verbal sparring match with Miguel after Kron is accused of attempted murder.^[15]

Kron returns to life through interaction with an alien symbiote. Tyler attempts to have him slain again but is outmaneuvered.

For a time, the Doctor Doom of this period takes over America and reveals that Tyler Stone is not the true power in Alechemax, it is Avatarr, a mysterious alien being. In a fit of rage, Doom kills Avatarr.^[16]

Miguel later infiltrates Tyler's building. He unexpectedly overhears his own mother conversing with Tyler. He then hears he is actually Tyler's son.^[17]

Later, Miguel becomes head of Alchemax. He hires his own mother as his personal secretary. Around this time, she shoots and severely wounds Tyler, forcing him to utilize a hover-chair. During his recovery in the hospital, Tyler learns his love, Dana, had been killed; the murderer turns out to be his son Kron.^[18]

His other son

Tyler realizes his son has returned to life due to interacting with an alien symbiote. He attempts to have it slain but is resisted by the science team overseeing the symbiote's prison cell. Miguel then overrules him. After the funeral of Dana, whom both Miguel and Tyler had slept with, Tyler attempts to bully Miguel, saying he will be reclaiming his office on the next day. Tyler claims this will be done because he is Miguel's father. The man knows this already and has Tyler removed by security.^[19]

During Tyler's many attempts to regain control over the company, he recalls it was Mrs. O'Hara who shot him. She again pulls a gun but Miguel takes the weapon. Tyler states he has always known O'Hara has been Spider-Man. Miguel fires three shots. It is revealed Tyler was utilizing a holographic projection. When questioned on if he knew it was projection before firing, Miguel says "I hope so." ^[20]

Death

Undersea invaders rampage through New York as revenge for Alchemax threatening to remove them from the city of New Atlantis. The leader, Roman, flooded the city of New York,^[21] and summoned the monster Giganto, who had originally appeared decades ago.^[22] This starts an evacuation of the city. Tyler Stone is shot to death by General Dagin of the Atlantean Army. Mrs. O'Hara also perishes in the conflict.^[23]

Stone's Mars Colony, called 'Project: Ares', becomes one of the last two outposts of humanity, the Savage Land being the other. This is detailed in the series 2099: World of Tomorrow.^[24]

Connections to Earth-616

Tiberius "Ty" Stone is one of Peter Parker's fellow employees at Horizon Labs. He will be the father of Tyler Stone and grandfather of Miguel O'Hara.^[25] In Superior Spider-Man #19, Tyler Stone travels to the present day Marvel universe and traps Miguel there.^[26]

Tyler Stone returns in Spider-Man 2099 where he is revealed to have travelled to the past as well, and is the mastermind of the terrorist organization called the Fist which is an offshoot of the Hand.^[27] He later hires Man Mountain Marko to keep Spider-Man 2099 occupied while he takes Miguel's fiancé Tempest Monroe from the hospital.^[28] Later, Miguel travels to 2019 to prevent Stone from kickstarting the Fist's plans. Stone tells him he has contracted cancer, and dares him to stop him from dropping a deadly virus. He is stabbed in the back by a second Spider-Man 2099 (Miguel and Tempest's son Gabri). Before dying, he orders Aisa to have New York's populace to attack the two future Spider-Men.^[29]

Afterwards, it is revealed that Stone had transformed Tempest back into her monstrous form (dubbed Honey Bee), and had brainwashed her to kill Miguel when he came to rescue her. This once again occurs, but Doctor Strange 2099 and Gabri resurrect Miguel, bringing him to a finally restored 2099, on New Year's Eve, just turning 2100.^[30]

Timestorm 2009-2099

In the re-imagining of the 2099 universe called 'Timestorm 2009-2099', Tyler maintains most of his original story; Miguel's half-brother becomes the future Scorpion instead of the future Venom. Alchemax is the de facto ruler of all of America. Stone sends Jake Gallows, a version of Punisher 2099 back to the 'Heroic Age' to murder modern day heroes. However this disdain for said heroes proves his undoing. Gallows overhears Stone insulting the Asgardian Thor and murders him for blasphemy. In the fatal blow, Stone kills Gallows as well.^[31]

Secret Wars (2015)

During the Secret Wars storyline, the Battleworld domain of 2099 has Tyler Stone whose legitimate son is Miguel Stone. Both of them are the current heads of Alchemax. Now confined to a wheelchair, Tyler is being a major influence on the now much more insidious Miguel.^[32] While 2099's versions of the Avengers and the Defenders were fighting Martin Hargood (the 2099 descendant of Baron Mordo), Miguel was taking his father Tyler to a safe room where he revealed to have hired the assassin to kill Roberta. This revelation enraged Miguel, who threw Tyler out of a window in a fit of rage.^[33]
