The Street Spider
In this world Aunt May and Uncle Ben were both shot and killed. While the authorities came to pick him up, he was worried they were going to take him away and put him into some orphanage, he was worried they were going to arrest him for assaulting the Burglar, and he was worried that once they did catch him, they do tests on him and he'd spend the rest of his days as a lab rat. instead of going with them, Peter ran. His been living on the streets ever since and has since became something of an urban legend.
It would be interesting to have a Peter Parker who is the only person with superpowers in his world.
Sincerely,
Thomas Mets
Spider-Knight: Dane Whitman is studying in New York through an exchange program and gets bitten by a radioactive spider on a field trip gaining spider-like powers. Later, he inherits the Ebony Blade and must stop Red Goblin, the reincarnation of the evil knight Mordred, from uniting the criminal elements to take over the city as SPIDER-KNIGHT.
"Cable was right!"
Bad/Good Luck Spider: The twin children of Spider-Man and Black Cat, Finn and Lynn, who can spread the "Parker Luck" to other people.
Spider-Webb: Teenage blind mutant Cassandra Webb tries to battle crime as shes tries to figure out where shes going...in life.
Spider-Monkey: A monkey is bitten by a radioactive spider
Spidey the Duck :" trapped in a web he never made". His quips have more biting satire in them..
Frank Castle Spidey : (Black suit with white spider/skull) Bitten by a radioactive spider while attending a presentation with his science-mad son. He mistakenly lets a criminal run past him and learns that with great responsibilty there must come great punishment...
We've seen Peter Parker/Spider-Man as the Punisher, but Frank Castle as Spider-Man? That could be very interesting, especially since technically, he'd just have to wear a black-and-white version of the Spider-Man 2099 suit, the symbol of which is a hybrid spider/skull, after all.
The spider is always on the hunt.
I'm trying to think of a scenario where Jameson likes Spider-man instead of being against him.
I think restorative nostalgia is the number one issue with comic book fans.
A fine distinction between two types of Nostalgia:
Reflective Nostalgia allows us to savor our memories but accepts that they are in the past
Restorative Nostalgia pushes back against the here and now, keeping us stuck trying to relive our glory days.
You know we could actually combine a number of these and get the Spider Avengers.
Captain spider-man - Super soldier Serum. So inspirational that it inspires others to study Spiders more.
Iron Man is the Iron Spider
Banner could be bitten by a gamma irradiated spider and becomes a giant green spiderman when made angry.
Ant Man studies Spiders instead.
