Marvel Introduces Gay Spider-Man. Meet Web-Weaver

A long time coming. Marvel's treatment of LGBTQ+ characters in the Spider-Verse has been embarrassing (look at the treatment of Exiles Spider-MJ and Ultimate Jessica Drew). Hopefully Web-Weaver doesn't fall into limbo after the new Spider-Verse event.

 

[Servbot24]

Looking good. I dunno how Spider-characters consistently have the best designs in the industry.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Holy shit I love him already, thanks Kris Anka for that glorious design

 

[HardTimesFamilyPride]

That whole top design is just doing it for me. Those sleeves, the shoulders, that collar. Reminds me of something Prince would wear lol. Hope to see some panels where that yellow really pops

 

[wideface]

Looks absolutely sick.

 

[Lulu]

the drip though, that suit is heat

 

[Royalan]

Femme Spider-Man?

Yes.

Yes.

Also, I do love a dramatic sleeve.

 

[mjc]

That's a slick ass suit

 

[ajido]

Adding to my pull list now. Love that costume.

 

[Surakian]

Please handle this character well, Marvel. 🙏

 

[nsilvias]

spider netta looks good

 

[Ruisu]

An outright fashion designer tries his hand as a superhero, that sure is an idea lol

 

[Cana]

Why is them a King of Fighters character



..Id say Team Mexico if anything

The Wasp did it first and it seems that he works for her lol, I'm very fond of that.

Exiles Spider-MJ was killed rather unceremoniously in the first Spider-Verse event and Ultimate Jessica Drew fell into comic book limbo after the end of the Ultimate line (she didn't make the jump like Miles Morales did).

 

[Ouroboros]

I dig the costume. Are there any other yellow prominent themed spider-man suits?

 

[boontobias]

SHOULDER PADS are underrated. Great design.

 

[Yasuke]

Oh my, that design's dope.

Spider-folk continue to have the best fits in the business.

 

[Speedstersonic]

I like the design of the suit, but i just REALLY want some non femme gay representation going on already :( it's become such a stereotype.

 

[Kemal86]

Really cool designed. I find a lot of modern costumes / redesigns to be off putting, typically over-designed, but this one is slick as fuck.

(They even put MJ in this suit once.)

(This was regular MJ and it was just for a single issue, lol.)

But Mangaverse MJ did have this outfit, lol.)

There's that one spider-armor that is black with a yellow spider symbol

the MkII

 

[The Living Tribunal]

That suit is fire, love it.

 

[Crossing Eden]

The amount of swagger in that art is amazing lmao.

 

[Xenocthul]

I love this design. Hopefully he can stick around longer than most alternative universe spider-people.

 

[Helix]

that's drip I can get behind

 

[ToddBonzalez]

Sick suit. I want him to show up in a Spiderverse movie. Maybe Through The Spiderverse pt. 2.

 

[awilliams213]

That collar is awesome the costume looks like a mix of Bull fighter and ball gown couture.

What vernacular is this and where can i learn more about it

 

[alexi52]

I love the costume

 

[Dreams-Visions]

okay that's clean.

 

[RisingStar]

Hopefully that suits in the next game!

 

[Volimar]

Kind of wish he had a cape that terminated at the same length of his sleeves. Might look too much like a matador then. Like the look. The back especially.

Says he's a fasion designer at Van Dyne and now I really want to see what he'd do with The Wasp's costume.

 

[Whitemex]

Loose the shoulder pads and you got a winner

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Hopefully that suits in the next game!

Peter can't pull that shit off

that's homophobic

 

[TheMadTitan]

Not a fan of the flared sleeves. Invokes the kind of hate that I only hold for pirate swashbuckler boots and flared gloves (yes, I'm shitting on Cap's costume).

 

[Whitemex]

Peter can't pull that shit off

Click to shrink...

Is it? Didn't mean it like that. I don't think shoulder pads are a good look for any outfit

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Click to shrink...

lol no sorry I was just kidding I just love the shoulder pads a lot

 

[Nacho]

digging the costume design. Feel like i can already get a pretty good sense of who this character is just from that.

 

[SageShinigami]

I like the design of the suit, but i just REALLY want some non femme gay representation going on already :( it's become such a stereotype.

Click to shrink...

Has it? I feel like a lot of gay characters in superheroes aren't flamboyant like that, but I could be wrong.

 

[Claire Delune]

Dig the costume, but the sleeves seem an odd choice for a Spider-Man type. Just seems like they'd get in the way and flap around with all the acrobatics and web-slinging antics Spider-Man usually finds himself doing.

 

[just_myles]

There is some swagger there. I dig it. Reminds me of Miles' new suit.

 

[famicorpse]

I'm obsessed with the costume already. Miss Weaver is EATING and leaving no crumbs!!!

Most i seem to come across in any media, though representation is low in general. TV/Movies is the worst of it usually. I can probably count on my fingers the amount that really haven't been at least somewhat stereotypical. I still don't feel like i ever see someone truly like the way me or my husband are.

 

[Watchtower]

Not the hugest fan of the name tbh but the design is straight fire.

 

[Dr Doom]

Look at that the animal loving anti-hero Kraven

 

[bryehn]

I was expecting "regular dude that has a boyfriend", but that design is great, especially if the character is a fashion designer. Harder to keep that identity secret I'd think though lol

 

[Tace]

Costume looks sick, hope he isn't just a one and done

 

[AvianAviator]

His spider suit looks fucking great
