There’s an abundance of cool suits in Marvel’s Spider-Man, and Insomniac Games went all out in representing the best and worst parts of Spider-Man’s history in Marvel Comics. As a character with decades of history, Spider-Man has had many suits across multiple forms of media.
With the plethora of suits that Spider-Man has worn over the years, it’s great to see Insomniac Games bring those to life in Marvel’s Spider-Man. Ranging from live-action suits, to even more obscure references that die-hard Marvel fans may have missed. Most suits feature the origin of their creation, and why they are in Marvel’s Spider-Man.
45 Advanced Suit
As the cover suit for Marvel’s Spider-Man, the Advanced Suit represents the love and craft of the Insomniac Games. It’s their original design, and an attempt to modernize Spider-Man’s costume, but at the same time, to pay homage to the classic design.
This is the baseline suit for Marvel’s Spider-Man story, and exists after Peter Parker’s original suit is damaged during a fight with Wilson Fisk. With Otto Octavius’ help, Peter Parker’s new and slick Spidey suit is created.
44 Classic Suit (Damaged)
The damaged version of the Classic Suit comes into play after a climactic battle to take down Wilson Fisk. Spider-Man’s fight with Kingpin leaves his classic outfit damaged, and torn, as represented through the rips, tears, and dust speckles covering the outfit.
The dust and dirt marks make for a battle-damaged Spider-Man. The only improvement would be if one of his lenses was destroyed, a classic look for a beaten Spider-Man in the comics.
43 Classic Suit (Repaired)
When players begin their journey in Marvel’s Spider-Man, they will suit up for the first time in the Classic Suit. This suit is Spider-Man’s definitive look. With bold red and blue colors, and a small black spider symbol on the chest. It’s a great superhero costume.
Players will be able to reunlock the Classic Suit after spending 2 Backpack Tokens and 2 Crime Tokens, as it is damaged in a fight with Wilson Fisk, making the cleanliness of the costume falter.
42 Noir Suit
The Noir Suit is an additional suit to Marvel’s Spider-Man. It features one of Spider-Man’s most iconic alternate timelines, in which Peter Parker became “Spider-Man Noir”. This Spider-Man is a lot grittier than the other renditions, as he is an investigative reporter during WW1.
Spider-Man Noir was most famously seen in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, where he was voiced by the delight of Nicolas Cage. The character comes from an alternate reality to the mainline Marvel Universe of 616.
41 Scarlet Spider Suit
With all of the power and none of the responsibility, the Scarlet Spider Suit swings onto the scene for Marvel’s Spider-Man. Considering Spider-Man has a long and convoluted history, it may not be a surprise for fans of the comics to know that Peter Parker has a perfect clone called Ben Reilly.
The Scarlet Spider is what Ben Reilly called himself, and the outfit in Marvel’s Spider-Man is a faithful recreation of such a costume seen in Marvel Comics.
40 Spider Armor MK2 Suit
In Marvel Comics, Peter Parker lost his Spider-Sense. Considering Spider-Sense was essential to Spider-Man’s reflexes, and what helps him dodge literal bullets, the armor was necessary to stop himself from getting shot dead.
The Spider Armor MK2 Suit features an identical design to the comics. This suit was completely bullet-proof and allowed Spider-Man to defeat his enemies easily.
39 Secret War Suit
Not to be confused with the Avengers event “Secret Wars”, Secret War was a five-issue comic involving Spider-Man and other superheroes, selected personally by Nick Fury. The mission was to lead the heroes into Latveria on a secret war since the US government didn’t sanction it.
Spider-Man’s outfit in Secret War appears in Marvel’s Spider-Man, featuring a more stealth and slimline design thanks to S.H.I.E.LD.
38 Stark Suit
Many fans celebrated the entry of Spider-Man into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. With a new actor, came a new suit, and Insomniac Games represent that with the highly detailed Stark Suit. This suit is Spider-Man’s costume, supplied by Tony Stark in Captain America: Civil War.
The outfit is worn by Spider-Man through most of his MCU appearances and is Marvel Studios’ rendition of a classic Spider-Man costume for their cinematic live-action universe.
37 Negative Suit
With the villain Mister Negative threatening New York City, it’s up to Spider-Man to save the day once again. Through his battles, Spider-Man enters the Negative Zone, and in doing so, can unlock a photo-negative costume.
Marvel’s Spider-Man features the photo-negative costume in the Advanced Suit, but a photo-negative suit is also seen in the comics when Peter Parker enters the Negative Zone to save three children.
36 Electrically Insulated Suit
The Electrically Insulated Suit is more commonly referred to in Marvel Comics as the “Electro Proof Costume”. It’s worn by Peter Parker to negate the effects of electricity that came from an overcharged and severely dangerous Electro.
The costumes are the same, and this insulated suit makes it so that Spider-Man is not shocked by the powerful electricity Electro disperses.
35 Spider-Punk
Spider-Punk upholds the traditions of punk music and holds against the power of the state, authority, cops, and media. With angry hearts and a love for rage and punk rock, Spider-Punk comes onto the scene in Earth-138.
This character is Hobart Brown and became a Spider-Totem after being bitten by an irradiated spider that was caused by illegal waste dumping. As Spider-Man, Hobart fought for freedom and punk rock.
34 Wrestler Suit
When Peter Parker was first bitten by the radioactive spider that gave him his powers, he decided to use them less for good, and more so for money. Peter Parker became a wrestler, and this outfit is seen on the wall of his bedroom in Marvel’s Spider-Man.
It’s a unique design, but a prominent story feature in Spider-Man’s origin. It was seen in live-action in Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man movie, and Insomniac Games created their version of the Wrestler Suit.
33 Fear Itself Suit
Although brief, the Fear Itself Suit just shows the attention to detail Insomniac Games has for their love of Spider-Man. Fear Itself was a Marvel comic event that involved Spider-Man wearing Asgardian armor. The armor itself gave Spider-Man unique abilities.
The story for Fear Itself involved Spider-Man, the Avengers, and other heroes, battling with their Asgardian allies to combat Serpent, the Asgardian God of Fear, and Odin’s brother.
32 Stealth “Big Time” Suit
The Stealth Costume is often referred to by fans as the “Big Time Costume”, and in Marvel Comics, was created by Spider-Man in Horizon Labs. The reason for its creation was to counter and combat the sonic screams of Hobgoblin.
Peter Parker is a resilient genius, who often creates gadgets and suits to counter his ever-growing list of villains. Stealth “Big Time” Suit is one of many and is involved in the Big Time story arc.
31 Spider Armor MK3 Suit
Whilst working at Horizon Labs, Peter Parker used his job location to create many suits for his superhero identity of Spider-Man. The Spider Armor MK3 Suit was created with vast resources to counter and fight the Sinister Six.
The outfit was an absolute last resort and was used to defeat Doctor Octopus, as the dying villain was attempting to speed up the Greenhouse effect.
30 Spider-Man 2099 Black Suit
One of the more famous of the Spider-Men, Miguel O’Hara is the Spider-Man from an alternate Earth in the future. This Spider-Man is set to feature in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse as voiced by Oscar Isaac.
Miguel is the Spider-Man of tomorrow, his powers obtained through surviving a murder attempt in which his DNA was spliced with the genres of a spider.
29 Spider-Man 2099 White Suit
During the All-New, All-Different Marvel era, Peter Parker and Miguel O’Hara met in Spider-Man 2099’s comic series, and in the comic, Peter Parker provides Miguel with the Spider-Man 2099 White Suit.
This outfit was used as the basis for Miguel’s design for his tenure as Spider-Man, and is identical to the Spider-Man 2099 Black Suit, except for its white design.
28 Iron Spider Suit
The Iron Spider Suit comes from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, in which Peter Parker’s suit transforms into the Iron Spider. The outfit was created by Tony Stark and is essentially Spider-Man’s version of Iron Man armor.
This set features in Avengers: Infinity War, Avengers: Endgame, and Spider-Man: Far From Home and is destroyed in Spider-Man: No Way Home. It’s been a staple of the MCU character.
27 Velocity Suit
The Velocity Suit is its unique design for Marvel’s Spider-Man. It was designed specifically for the game, with no previous reference to Marvel Comics.
However, its design is rather unique and features an Easter egg in Spider-Man: Far From Home as one of the pre-made suit designs. It also has its tie-in comic miniseries, Spider-Man: Velocity.
26 Spider Armor MK4 Suit
The MK4 of the Spider Armor is unique to the other versions, as it more closely models Spider-Man’s iconic classic suit. Peter created it with his experience from the other suits, and at Parker Industries, once it became a worldwide technology corporation.
As cool as the armor was, it was destroyed in the comics by an EMP, proving once again that spandex is superior to technology-based armor.
