#SpiderManNoir live-action series is moving forward at Amazon 🕸️⚫️




It’s set in its own universe and the main character is not Peter Parker.


Out of the many Spider-Man variants in the Marvel Universe, Spider-Man Noir is the absolute worst – and separates himself from Peter Parker in one major way. The character is quite popular among Marvel readers and casual fans alike, perhaps due to his appearance in 2019’s Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse film. But he is far from the morally-updating hero fans believe him to be, and Edge of Spider-Verse #1 proves it by showing his worst possible act towards Mary Jane.


Spider-Man Noir (real name Peter Parker) is a hard-boiled detective living in the 1930s in an alternate universe version of New York. Characterized by his iconic fedora, long trenchcoat, and all-black costume, Spider-Man Noir is a throwback to the narratives of the 30s – especially of hard workers rising up against corrupt bosses and officials (as his Uncle Ben says after fighting in World War I, “If those in power can’t be trusted, it’s the responsibility of the people to remove them”). Like the main version of the webslinging hero, Spider-Man Noir is often paired with Mary Jane, and the relationship is quite serious. Unfortunately, it is not without its troubles, which are only exacerbated and magnified by the setting.
