In the year 2099, a new Vulture is a recurring foe of Spider-Man 2099; this version of the Vulture wears high-tech armoring, possessing metallic wings and claws, as well as a helmet. Vulture 2099 is apparently insane, a cannibal (he refers to those he eats as "corpses") he wishes to have complete control of the sky and is the leader of a gang known as "The Freakers".

When most of the civilized world is flooded, the Vulture creates a floating boat-colony off the shores of the Savage Land. His new crew is called the 'Wild Boys'. There, he recovers an old associate, Wulff, whom his gang torments.
