Promotional artwork featured on new merchandise for Spider-Man: Through the Spider-Verse offered a first look at Spider-Punk’s redesign for Marvel’s animated sequel.
Spider-Man: Through the Spider-Verse will pick up where 2018 Into the Spider-Verse stopped, finding Miles Morales, Gwen Stacy and Oscar Isaac’s Spider-Man 2099 joining a host of other Spider-People in a new multiversal adventure. The film will star Jason Schwartzman as the villainous The Spot.
Previous tie-in toys had confirmed that the anarchic Spider-Punk would be one of the new heroes joining Miles’ team this time around, but so far no images of the hero had been seen.
New artwork featured on a Spider-Man: Through the Spider-Verse The puzzle shows Spider-Punk rocking out with an electric guitar slung across the back of his leather vest.
Check out Spider-Punk’s new image in Through the Spider-Verse below:
In the comics, Spider-Punk is Earth-138’s Hobie Brown (on Earth-616, Hobie was the original Prowler). This Spider-Man stood up to the state, fighting for freedom from the oppression wielded by its President of Earth, Norman Osborn.
Interestingly, the Through the Spider-Verse version of Spider-Punk sports a Union Jack badge, perhaps suggesting he’ll be British in the film, unlike his comic book counterpart. It’s also possible it’s a nod to the classic punk band, the Sex Pistols, whose album God Save the Queen featured the Union Jack on its cover.
Spider-Punk will join Scarlet Spider and Cyborg Spider-Woman in the Into the Spider-Verse sequel as they team up with Miles, Gwen and Miguel O’Hara – Oscar Isaac’s Spider-Man from 2099 – to take on the reality TV spot.
Here is the synopsis of the highly anticipated spider worms after:
Miles Morales returns for the next chapter in the Oscar-winning Spider-Verse saga, an epic adventure that will transport the friendly Brooklyn neighborhood Spider-Man across the multiverse to join forces with Gwen Stacy and a new team of Spider-Man. Man. The people must face a villain more powerful than anything they have ever encountered.
Directed by Joaquim Dos Santos, Kemp Powers and Justin K. Thompson from a script written by Phil Lord, Christopher Miller and Dave Callaham, the film features the voices of Shameik Moore, Hailee Steinfeld, Jake Johnson, Oscar Isaac and Issa Rae .
