Please Note: Due to the comic changing main characters at the end of Volume 2, tropes for the first two volumes of the title are separate from tropes for the third and fourth volumes. As such, all tropes relating to Miles Morales will be collected under the tropes for Volumes 3 and 4. This page will also feature unmarked spoilers for the Peter Parker-focused portion of the series.Ultimate Spider-Man, part of the Ultimate Marvel line, is a retelling of the original Spider-Man comic written by Brian Michael Bendis and drawn, originally, by Mark Bagley and later by Stuart Immonen. The Bendis and Bagley collaboration, which lasted for 111 issues, holds the record for longest Comic Book Run on a Marvel Comics series by two people, breaking the record set by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby on Fantastic Four.Issue #1 was published in 2000, and it proved to be the first title in Ultimate Marvel and the most famous and influential title in that label. It provided a Setting Update to Peter's high-school and teenage era and origins from the early '60s to the late '90s. Peter gets bitten by a genetically altered spider developed by Oscorp, and his classic villains have a set of powers and skills that are slightly different from how readers expect them to be. But fundamentally Peter is motivated by the guilt of his Uncle's death, by the idea that "With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility" and as the series evolves he comes to be the moral and emotional center of the entire Ultimate Marvel universe, and a Hope Bringer for his friends, loved ones, and allies.After a six-month Time Skip following Ultimatum, which killed off many Ultimate Marvel characters and initially left Peter's fate ambiguous, the series was re-launched as Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man until the comic reached its 150th issue (counting both pre- and post-Ultimatum issues) and returned to its original numbering and naming format for 10 issues, just in time for a crucial crossover event: The Death of Spider-Man, which was Exactly What It Says on the Tin. The series ended with issue 160, followed by the miniseries Ultimate Fallout (Peter eventually got better, but he stopped being the protagonist of the series at that point).A third volume came out starring Miles Morales, a new character introduced in the pages of Ultimate Fallout. This series was published under the title Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man, Volume 2, or Ultimate Comics: All-New Spider-Man with new numbering. In 2012, as part of the 50th anniversary of Spider-Man titles, the first 616 and Ultimate Universe crossover, Spider-Men was launched, which saw the 616 Peter arrive into the Ultimate Universe and meet Miles, who never got to meet the original Spider-Man.In 2014, The fourth and final volume, called Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man, began in the wake of the Cataclysm Crisis Crossover. This title ended with #12 and led into Secret Wars (2015), at the end of which, Miles Morales was imported directly into the Marvel Comics Universe thanks to the intervention of Molecule Man. This was done as a part of the All-New, All-Different Marvel line-up, not only starring in All-New, All-Different Avengers, but also starring in Spider-Man (2016), by the same creative team and with Miles as the main Spider-Man with the original Peter Parker serving as a mentor for the younger web-slinger. The crossover Spider-Men II provided a coda for Ultimate Spider-Man and the Ultimate Marvel line as a whole.In September 2023, Marvel announced a new Ultimate Spider-Man series as part of its rebooted Ultimate Universe (2023). Written by Jonathan Hickman with artwork by Marco Checchetto, this series adds a twist to the origin by having Peter be bitten by the spider as a married man with children, rather than as a high school student.There's also the 2005 tie-in game, which introduced Ultimate Beetle and was marketed as being in continuity with the series but this has since been the subject of Canon Discontinuity. A version of the game's plot and events was adapted between USM #123-128 ("War of the Symbiotes"). And on the subject of video games, Ultimate Spidey also made an appearance in 2010's Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions as one of the four playable characters (on home consoles). Not to be confused with the Ultimate Spider-Man animated show, which has a different premise; though as with most Marvel adaptations it does have some Ultimate Universe elements incorporated into it. | |

Secret Identity | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_112890b3 | comment |
Secret Identity: A very interesting example in that Miles tries to keep his identity secret, but people keep finding out, either because he revealed it to them (such as Ganke and Peter's friends and family), or they simply figured it out by themselves (such as his uncle Aaron as well as his ex-roommate Judge). It has gotten to the point that the people who know his identity or have found out are about 20 or more. | |

Canon Foreigner: Miles does not have a counterpart in the regular Marvel Universe. Although that can be questioned if the Sequel Hook at the end of Spider-Men is taken into account... He graduates to Canon Immigrant (literally) after the Secret Wars. | |

| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_121b3725 | comment |
Age Lift: Peter is depicted as going to high school with Mary Jane, Harry, and Gwen. Originally, he wouldn't meet them until college. For that matter, Peter spends his whole story in high school. Jessica Jones is depicted as a senior instead the same age as Peter. Eddie Brock is a couple of years older than Peter instead of around the same age as adults. Aunt May, Uncle Ben, Ben Urich, and Madame Web are significantly younger than their mainstream counterparts with May and Ben as middle-aged instead of senior citizens. Ben as a young adult instead of middle-aged himself, and Web as quite a bit younger than her elderly mainstream counterpart. Related to his Adaptational Species Change into a true vampire, Morbius is centuries old. | |

An unnamed Britney Spears appears during the Venom arc, where's she's almost abducted, until Spidey (in the Venom suit) saves her. After webbing her mouth shut to stop her from constantly screaming. | |

Trailers Always Spoil As far back as the letters page of issue 50, Bendis stated that Gwen Stacy would become Carnage. However, he said it in a way that would make people think he was joking. As noted on the page for "The Clone Saga" in relation to his Ultimate Universe incarnation, the solicitation for #104 included its cover—revealing that the Big Bad of the arc was Doctor Octopus. | |

Genre Savvy: Both Directors of S.H.I.E.L.D when it comes to the villains' death. Nick Fury's 'no body, no death' belief is famous enough, but Carol Danvers topped him by apparently having Norman Osborn's body monitored, just in case. And when he woke up, they immediately locked him up again. | |

All There in the Manual | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_17ce80aa | comment |
All There in the Manual: Even more so than in the previous era. Nearly every character that is not explicitly associated with Miles Morales has backstory in the previous volumes of Ultimate Spider-Man. This means that at some minor parts readers may be a little lost if they haven't read anything from the Peter Parker era. It is not bad enough to totally leave you in the dark, but you will miss out on a lot of the back-story for established character relationships. | |

Only Six Faces | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_18a84025 | comment |
Only Six Faces: Usually averted, but not always. Bagley's rendition of Sue Storm during the Ultimate Clone Saga looked identical to Gwen Stacy (particularly noticable as Gwen herself came back from the dead in that very arc). Even more noticeable was the way Immonen drew Jessica Drew WAY too close to Kitty Pryde — just look at the scene where Jessica glomps Kitty when they meet at the end of Ultimatum. If it wasn't for their costumes they'd be identical. (Ironic, as Jessica's face is supposed to be almost identical to Peter's.) It isn't restricted solely to the girls either — during the beach scene in chapter 118 it's almost impossible to tell Johnny and Bobby apart (Immonen again). Fortunately this was rectified when they switched to Lafuente, who draws Bobby COMPLETELY differently. The creepy eyeless girl in Moon Knight's visions looks an awful lot like Mary Jane. | |

Never Trust a Trailer: The solicits get pretty egregious in the Spider-man No More Arc. Issue 24 mentions the Power Pack as if they are being formed within that issue. They don't become a formal team until issue 27. Issue 26 solicitation implies that the Ultimate Power Pack are already acquainted and already are on their way to take on Roxxon. They don't formally meet each other until issue 27.Also, it suggests that Miles Morales girlfriend has a secret of her own, but she does not even appear in this issue and most of it was backstory for Bombshell who is not Miles' girlfriend. Issue 27 solicitiation implies that the Ultimate Power Pack have already been formed, Miles has found out that Roxxon is behind his mother's death and is seeking revenge, and are confronting Roxxon. This issue focuses on the battle between the Ultimate Power Pack and Taskmaster and they only just formed this issue. Issue 25 states that there are more young heroes debuting in the issue when there are no more new characters being introduced. | |

Death by Origin Story | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_1aa76d29 | comment |
Death by Origin Story: Guess. If you guessed Uncle Ben, you were wrong. Uncle Ben was a character for a couple of issues at the beginning of the comic. The characters that died before the series started and were a part of Peter's story were Richard and Mary Parker, Peter's parents. This applies to Peter, with the original Spider-Man taking the Uncle Ben role for Miles Morales. | |

For a short-time, Flash Thompson kept pestering Peter to talk to him privately, but Peter continually blew Flash off due to Flash still being The Bully at the time. It was never revealed what Flash so desperately wanted to get Peter's advice on, but after Gwen Stacy's death Mary Jane speculated that Flash must have had feelings for her. Only problem there is when Gwen got resurrected the topic is never brought up again and Flash largely gets written out of the series. | |

| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_1c445e86 | comment |
Poor Communication Kills: During the first encounter between Peter and Jessica Drew, Peter is already angry, stressed and confused and Jessica just makes cryptic, confusing, provocative and generally useless comments. Then when Peter attacks her (quite justifiably under the circumstances) she accidentally knocks him out and leaves him buried under a pile of rubble. Somewhat justified; Jessica herself was pretty confused, given that she had come into existence not long before and still was struggling with the fact that she was a girl and not Peter himself. | |

Those Two Guys: In Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man, Bobby and Johnny skirt this trope. They would very likely BE this trope if they weren't Iceman and the Human Torch. Even still, thanks to the fact they're trying to keep a secret identity, they don't get nearly as much panel time as Kitty, Gwen, or Mary Jane. In nine issues, they've helped with a grand total of one fight. | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: The Oz serum — no-one is quite sure of the extent of its capabilities, but Spider-Man, Doctor Octopus and all three Goblins gain their powers from some sort of application of it. Keep in mind that whilst Peter got his powers from a spider used in Oz testing and only displayed the traditional Spider-Man powers, Octavius was eventually revealed to be more powerful than previously thought, and Norman has returned from the dead and was thought to have been cured of his powers for a time. As of the time of this entry, Harry Osborn is dead (Which could also be once said of his father) and Mary Jane Watson has been said to have been cured of the serum's effects; but when Peter talks to SHIELD about the necessity to keep the Osborns imprisoned after Mary Jane is cured, and is told outright that there is no permanent cure for Oz. | |

The Kingpin was cleared of murder charges after his lawyer got the video of the murder ruled inadmissible. Even though news station played the video for all to see, the citizens of New York treat this as the same thing as him as being completely innocent. In this case it's slightly downplayed in that it's clear Fisk only avoided jailtime due a hefty amount of Money and Connections, and afterward he's lost a great amount of both. While still free, he's forced to spend the next few story arcs lying low and re-building his public image to make up for it. | |

Aborted Arc | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_23698fa8 | comment |
Aborted Arc: Nick Fury claims that after the symbiote's existence had been revealed to the world, multiple factions all over the world are starting to look for and fight over it. The conflict is apparently so bad that Fury sees this as the prelude to World War 3. This is never brought up again due to the next story arc being part of Ultimatum, with this conflict possibly also being cancelled in-universe due to the worldwide destruction Ultimatum brought about. Early in Ultimate Spider-Man, in Issue 2, there's a panel where Peter's hand starts buzzing and Peter wonders what's wrong with it. The panel seemingly implied that Peter would develop organic webbing, but later issues show him developing the web shooters. The reasons for that panel are never elaborated again. For a short-time, Flash Thompson kept pestering Peter to talk to him privately, but Peter continually blew Flash off due to Flash still being The Bully at the time. It was never revealed what Flash so desperately wanted to get Peter's advice on, but after Gwen Stacy's death Mary Jane speculated that Flash must have had feelings for her. Only problem there is when Gwen got resurrected the topic is never brought up again and Flash largely gets written out of the series. MJ becoming Ultimate Demogoblin and still have PTSD nightmares after that, seemed to suggest that her powers could manifest. A later comic showed her hands shaking in rage as she saw Peter talking to Kitty, implying that her powers were dormant. But this isn't followed up for the rest of the Ultimate Spider-Man run. War Of The Symbiotes ends with the Beetle abducting Eddie Brock so that Latverian scientists can study the Venom symbiote. This is the last time either character appears. | |

Extremely Short Timespan: The Clone saga features many events that would be shocking just by themselves. Peter breaks up with Kitty, or at least takes a break from her jealous complaints. A new villain razes the mall, and turns out to be a clone of Peter. Mary Jane is kidnapped. There's a Spiderwoman, who turns out to be a female clone of Peter. Gwen Stacy is somehow back from the dead. Richard Parker, Peter's dad, is also back from the dead. Unable to hide things anymore, Peter confesses his big secret to Aunt May. May has a heart attack. SHIELD comes to detain Peter Parker with all guns blazing. Mary Jane was injected with Oz and turns into a giant monster. Gwen turns out to be the Carnage suit. There are several clones of Peter Parker, all of them made by Otto Octavius. Richard was actually yet another clone with fake memories, who dies of accelerated aging. All that and more... happens in just one crazy night. | |

Peter's time as Spider-Man as a whole eventually ends on this note. Spider-Man defeats the Sinister Six once and for all but dies from his injuries. Kingpin is dead, New York is safe for the time being, a new team of superheroes are defending the city now, Frank Quaid has replaced the corrupt DeWolffe as police captain, Iron Fist's family is safe, and Spidey's legacy lives on, having inspired the people of New York. But Peter's family and friends have been left in mourning, Daredevil is dead, Moon Knight had to give up his secret identity to bring down Kingpin, Shang Chi has left New York with his idealism shattered, Kong and Kitty's relationship fell apart, and now that Kingpin's gone there's an Evil Power Vacuum in New York's underworld. Plus Mysterio is still on the loose along with plenty of other supervillains, meaning that it's going to fall to the new Spider-Man, Miles Morales, to save the city for good. | |

Lampshade Hanging | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_2a090d00 | comment |
The first time Peter fought with Omega Red, he joked "I almost wore the exact same outfit today... boy, would that have been embarrassing." When Miles fights with Omega Red early in his career, he uses almost exactly the same linenote which works even better, as Miles' version of the Spider-Man costume is actually quite similar to Omega Red's outfit, prompting Omega Red to point it out, calling it proof of his belief that Spider-Man had never actually died. | |

| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_2bf267a9 | comment |
Beat Panel Used regularly (Decompressed Comic and all that), but possibly most amusing in 118: Another brilliant instance is when Jean Grey tells Peter he's the first guy in months not to immediately picture her naked. | |

Gossip Evolution | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_2d047747 | comment |
Gossip Evolution The other girls in the school said that Peter threw up on Mary Jane's shoes during the spider incident in Oscorp. He didn't. But hey, that's what they say. They even call her "spew shoes". An unimpressed MJ sardonically observes "Well, for them that's almost clever." Flash picked a fight with Parker, who tries to elude him as best as he can. He finally lands a punch, and Peter tries to stop it. But, with his increased strength, he broke Flash's arm. We can see him in tears, whispering "I told him... I said... I didn't want to fight". Harry was not at school, so Kong explained what happened. According to him, it was awesome! And Peter shouted "Next time, I'm gonna kill you! It's payback time!"! | |

Mistaken for Cheating | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_2d7ef923 | comment |
Mistaken for Cheating: Mary Jane arrives to the party at Kong's house, finds the drunk Liz trying to score with Peter, and runs away thinking the worst (admittedly they hadn't gotten together yet, but it was still upsetting for her to see him with another girl crawling all over him). It was all swept under the carpet when Uncle Ben died, and Peter needed a hug. | |

Out of Focus: In spite of being a rather memorable player in Spidey's Rogues Gallery in the main canon, Sandman only appears in two story arcs of the Ultimate Books and barely has any lines. It's implied that the reason he doesn't talk much is due to some form of brain damage from his transformation. Likewise, the Lizard is one of Spider-Man's classic villains, but he only appears once in Ultimate Marvel Team-Up, and his only two appearances in the main Ultimate Spider-Man title were a flashback and nightmare sequence. | |

Off on a Technicality | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_34f590c9 | comment |
Off on a Technicality: Apparantly, being apprehended by the Web-Slinger (and possibly any costumed vigilante) is a violation of your civil rights and is the source of Joker Immunity for anyone he has a hand in bringing down, particularly the Shocker, who gets a "Get out of Jail Free" Card for breaking out of jail and his original crimes which Spidey had nothing to do with. As of Ultimatum, the DA's office has done absolutely nothing about this loophole, instead blaming Spider-Man for their cases getting tossed. The Punisher is listening when this is brought up at Ryker's— a rapist says that he's free as a bird, because Daredevil beat the crap out of him as he was about to nail a thirteen-year old in a house he broke into and says that as soon as he's free he's going to finish what he started— aaand that's how the reader discovers that nesting the bowl of a spoon in your palm with the handle between your middle and ring fingers will enable you to slash open someone's throat. The Kingpin was cleared of murder charges after his lawyer got the video of the murder ruled inadmissible. Even though news station played the video for all to see, the citizens of New York treat this as the same thing as him as being completely innocent. In this case it's slightly downplayed in that it's clear Fisk only avoided jailtime due a hefty amount of Money and Connections, and afterward he's lost a great amount of both. While still free, he's forced to spend the next few story arcs lying low and re-building his public image to make up for it. Peter tries to bring it up during class, and the teacher gives him detention. The implication is that everybody knows he bought the cops off, and is therefore the de facto master of the city - and their lives are at risk if they bring it up. When Peter and Nick Fury first met, he explained that SHIELD can not take Norman prisoner because they do not have the appropiate proof of his crimes. Yes, he experimented on himself and turned himself into a monster of incredible power, but there is no law saying that that's a crime (but they are working on that). | |

Person of Mass Destruction | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_36c94bed | comment |
Person of Mass Destruction: What OZ does... even the smartest people in the Ultimate Universe can't seem to figure out what it can do, let alone cure it. Originally developed as a way to create a Super-Soldier, here are a few examples of what it has done in the series so far: Gave Peter Parker his spider powers when a modified spider bit him. Mutated Norman Osborn into the Green Goblin. He himself has evolved throughout the series, starting as a Hulk-lite who could throw fireballs, becoming aware of himself at a molecular level and displaying serious pyrokinetic abilities (destroying The Triskelion during his escape), and eventually coming back from the dead after getting his head blown clean off. Created Doctor Octopus, who has hyper-sensitive vision (and serious scarring to go with it), could initially control his Tentacle Harness telepathically, and was eventually revealed to be much more powerful than that... being able to control metal with his thoughts. Turned Harry Osborn into the Hobgoblin, whose aura was so hot he could melt bullets before they hit him. Not nearly as powerful as Norman, who beat him to death on a S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier, presumably because he was only tainted with the drug. Transformed Mary Jane Watson into the Demogoblin, who rampaged out of control for a while before seeing Peter snapped her out of it and she transformed back. Mary Jane was supposedly cured. For now. | |

| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_3b113b7 | comment |
Character Development: Most of Miles' early development revolves around facing and overcoming his fears, including the fear of his own powers and what they mean for his life. Fear also motivates the Prowler, and as a result we see him degenerate from a doting uncle to a violent thug threatening to beat his nephew into cooperation. Later, as Miles starts to broaden his horizons from his rather sheltered boarding school, he decides to be more proactive in being a hero and joins the Ultimates. Jameson actually has a few words to say about this, being disgusted when other reporters haven't actually learned anything from the disasters New York and America have faced. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: Almost every arc and story has one. Peter's time as Spider-Man as a whole eventually ends on this note. Spider-Man defeats the Sinister Six once and for all but dies from his injuries. Kingpin is dead, New York is safe for the time being, a new team of superheroes are defending the city now, Frank Quaid has replaced the corrupt DeWolffe as police captain, Iron Fist's family is safe, and Spidey's legacy lives on, having inspired the people of New York. But Peter's family and friends have been left in mourning, Daredevil is dead, Moon Knight had to give up his secret identity to bring down Kingpin, Shang Chi has left New York with his idealism shattered, Kong and Kitty's relationship fell apart, and now that Kingpin's gone there's an Evil Power Vacuum in New York's underworld. Plus Mysterio is still on the loose along with plenty of other supervillains, meaning that it's going to fall to the new Spider-Man, Miles Morales, to save the city for good. | |

Damsel in Distress | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_4160410d | comment |
Damsel in Distress Mary Jane, as always. Inverted in issue #122: The Worst Day in Peter Parker's Life, where the Shocker manages to capture Spidey, so Mary and Kitty team up to save him. Spidey actually gets kidnapped a lot throughout the entirety of USM. First by Doc Oc, then by Silver Sable (twice by her if you count the game), there was an incident with Deadpool, once by the Kingpin, another time by the Six, and again by the Chameleons. | |

To Make a Long Story Short | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_4310c3d6 | comment |
To Make a Long Story Short Subverted during the Clone saga. Peter asks Richard Parker how is it that Gwen Stacy is alive again. He starts narrating his whole origin story. He interrupted him several times, reminding him of the big question (at one point the question was even Punctuated! For! Emphasis!). Just wait a bit, we'll get to that... and eventually a big disaster happens outside, before he could end his lengthy explanation. And then played straight at the end of the arc. Mary Jane asks what the hell has happened. Peter makes a brief recap of the incredibly complex plot: Doctor Octopus cloned me and Gwen Stacy and the clones escaped and Aunt May had a heart attack and one of them kidnapped you. | |

Dropped a Bridge on Him Gwen Stacy's death, so much so that Bendis brought her back. Also 2 of the clones from the clone saga — Ultimate Kaine and Ultimate Tarantula — who were not only killed off with casual disdain but whose deaths weren't even given more than a moment's acknowledgment. Below isn't paraphrasing, that's the actual dialogue: Also in Ultimate Comics #1, the Kingpin. He's only just returned to New York after the Ultimatum Wave when Mysterio appears out of nowhere and blows him out of a skyscraper window. | |

Small Steps Hero: Best shown during the Ultimatum arc. The rest of the heroes are chasing down Magneto and Doctor Doom. Spidey is saving people from drowning. You can see the sort of difference this made by the sheer number of people who show up for his funeral. Including a small girl who gives Aunt May a hug because Spider-man saved her from a fire. | |

What Could Have Been | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_453871ec | comment |
What Could Have Been: Discussed in-universe. In Ultimate Spider-Man 200, while commemorating the anniversary of Peter Parker's death, the participants talk about what Peter would have done if he were grown up. Mary Jane imagined that he could have been greater than Captain America and led the Ultimates. Aunt May imagined that he would infuse his science ability with his heroics and start a Spider-Man-esque Future Foundation. Gwen referenced personal discussions with Peter Parker, and stated that he wanted to be a reporter so that people with money could not escape wrong doings so he could use his heroics as Spider-Man to break the story. Kitty Pryde dismissed herself from discussing it, but her panel alluding to her imagination had her and Peter growing up together and being married. Miles cited that if he got his act together and met up with Peter sooner, he would be a partner if not a sidekick. Bobby Drake flat out used the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon scenario as what Peter would have done. | |

Villain Takes an Interest: The Prowler (Aaron Davis, Miles' uncle) finds out who Miles really is, and very quickly starts to train him in the name of "responsibility". However, it's pretty obvious from his blackmailing Miles into it and his having pissed off the very dangerous Scorpion, that the Prowler wants to use Miles as a super-powered meat-shield. | |

Jerk with a Heart of Gold | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_4781adbb | comment |
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: The Hulk. He may be "prone" to violent outbursts but he still has a soft side for kids, as shown when he saves some children's lives in a flashback depicted in the Ultimatum: Spider-Man Requiem miniseries. Kong seems like the usual high-school bully on the surface, but it later becomes clear that he's a Gentle Giant who cares deeply for his friends and he becomes a close ally of Peter's. As always, the hard-hitting newspaperman J. Jonah Jameson, whose personality is a lot more stable and consistent since he's only being written by a single person this time. Jameson in this version needs people to talk him down from his rants and is a massive hassle to work with, but he's also got all the integrity of his mainstream counterpart and Spider-Man isn't anywhere near as much of a Berserk Button as it usually is. | |

Butt-Monkey Formerly the Shocker, which came to an end after a certain issue. The Enforcers also frequently get owned. Special mention to Fancy Dan for getting owned the same way every time. To a lesser degree, Kraven is also relegated to this role, to the point that Spider-Man goes out of his way to call him the most embarrassing foe he's ever facednote Spidey knocked him out in one punch in their first confrontation, as Kraven had no powers at the time. Even after getting some and joining the Ultimate Six, he's still clearly the weakest of the group. The other bad guys even put him down to his face and make it clear they're being generous just letting him hang around. | |

Unlike the original Earth-616 Spider-Man from the Mainstream universe (who was asocial and came from a Friendless Background during his teenage years), Ultimate Spider-Man has a confidant in Mary-Jane with whom he shares his secret identity, his worries, and who also serves as a backup. This setup came into movies such as Spider-Man: Homecoming where Ned Lee (based on Ultimate Ganke) serves as Peter's "guy in the chair". | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: In the first arc, when Peter first changes into Spider-Man for a superhero fight, he hides among the bushes and thinks "this can't be how Captain America does it!". The Ultimate Marvel universe was still in its early stages, and Captain America had not been acknowledged yet. He was first used in The Ultimates: he was a war hero from World War II, the first superhuman ever, who fell to the ocean and was presumed dead after stopping a nazi rocket. He was retrieved in the present day of that miniseries, but this story was not there yet. So, for all that Peter knows at that point, Captain America had only been a superhero during WWII, and probably did not even had to bother about concealing a secret identity. Formatting-wise, the first eight issues featured splash pages that loudly displayed the issue's chapter title. It stopped being a thing starting with Issue #9. Also formatting-wise, the text font begins implementing lower-case letters in the speech balloons starting from Issue #14. It also becomes the standard font style for the Ultimate Universe, to the point of Painting the Medium when crossing over with the main Marvel Universe. Eddie Brock makes a cameo as a reporter for the Daily Globe. This is several issues before he is properly reintroduced as Peter's Childhood Friend and a college student studying bioengineering. Maybe it's someone else named Eddie Brock? | |

Body Horror Venom suffers from a constant hunger, which requires him to eat people. Also, the symbiote increases his size and number of teeth. Carnage arguably counts as well. You know how Deadpool wears the mask? He wears it for a good reason. After being turned into a cyborg, his face has no skin and muscle and his brain is exposed. The human shape of his face from under the mask comes from a thin, but tough dome around his head. Sandman. When we first see him he's completely unstable and looks like he's in agony. The Hammer scientist who created him says the physical transformation went perfectly but his mind couldn't handle it. Later on he settles down, but it's implied he has brain damage. | |

Adaptational Superpower Change | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_538273bd | comment |
Adaptational Superpower Change: The Rhino is a Humongous Mecha, instead of a man with Super-Strength. Jessica Drew is also changed. In 616, she has her own powers, like Flight. In 1610, she is an Opposite-Sex Clone of Peter Parker, and has his powers (plus organic webbing, fired from her fingertips instead of her wrists). The Ultimate Spider-Man version of Kraven the Hunter had no powers initially, allowing Spidey to cream him in their first fight. Later he alters his DNA and becomes a horrific werewolf-like creature, and is arrested by the Ultimates who remove said alterations. Doctor Octopus was retconned into having control over metal like Magneto, as opposed to just having a psychic link to his mechanical arms. | |

Figure It Out Yourself | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_5d41eb9 | comment |
Figure It Out Yourself: Kong does this within the first 14 issues, in regards to Peter being Spider-Man. It's worth noting that he's the only person to figure out that Peter's Spider-Man, even though their entire class saw Peter get bitten by a spider they had just been told was part of an Oscorp experiment roughly a week before Spider-Man showed up. The series at least treats this as realistically as they can while still not giving his identity away, by having Kong repeatedly try to tell Flash and Liz what he's figured out, but having them so thoroughly disrespect Peter that they refuse to believe it, coming up with one excuse after another why it can't be true. | |

Genetic Engineering Is the New Nuke | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_5ec15a79 | comment |
Genetic Engineering Is the New Nuke: Nick Fury pretty much outright says this during the Death of a Goblin arc. This gets to the point that we discover that there's an entire section of S.H.I.E.L.D prison dedicated to containing "illegal genetic tampering", something which Spidey himself is considered (although, because he's a good guy, Fury plans to instead initiate him into the Ultimates when he comes of age, as opposed to arresting him). The end of the "Venom" storyline had Dr. Conners drunkenly muse to Peter as to whether or not it's coincidence that so many people have screwed with their genetics and wound up evil from it. Several characters also muse that maybe the sudden influx of super-powered insanity is a sign that something big is coming, like a harbinger of the apocalypse. It's first mentioned by Kong, who uses Ghostbusters (1984) as part of the analogy. Peter later quotes this. | |

Time Skip: A year passes between issues 22 and 23, revealing that Miles successfully quit being a superhero for the entire year—significantly longer than the time he actually spent trying to be Spider-Man. Tandy Bowen, previously a side character in the first two volumes, was in a car accident that left her and the newly introduced Tyrone Johnson in a coma until 3 days before the issue, after being kidnapped by Roxxon and having their deaths faked. The experiments they underwent gave rise to Cloak and Dagger. | |

All Mary Jane has to do is say the word "bikini" and Peter instantly changes his mind. During the Clone Saga storyline after both Mary Jane and Gwen Stacy turn into monstrous forms their clothing is ripped apart, leaving them completely naked when they revert back to their regular forms. After gaining her mutant powers and lighting herself on fire, Liz Allen spends pretty much the entirety of a story arc naked. | |

| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_723be11b | comment |
Villain Has a Point: Roxxon was right in that Miles did a horrible job of protecting his secret identity. His reveal to Katie ended up getting it into HYDRA's hands and his roommate had known for over a year because they weren't subtle about it at all. | |

You Can't Fight Fate: The editors mention numerous times on the letter pages that the appearance of Web-Shooters is predestined and unavoidable - and sure enough, thirteen issues in, Miles gets Peter's Web-Shooters, delivered by Aunt May herself. | |

Idiot Ball | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_7286e96d | comment |
Idiot Ball / Distress Ball: Got tossed around a bit in the 5th issue, when Electro awakes. Iron Man tried to take him head-on, but had... some logical weaknesses (as in not expecting Electro to be able to drain the power out of his armor). Hawkeye, likewise didn't have any plan B after "put an arrow into it" (a distraction in the first place). Spider-Woman just pounces on him and gets electrocuted for her effortsnote Note that, in the Ultimate Universe, Spider-Woman/Jessica Drew is a female clone of Peter from the clone saga. Since it's established she has his memories up to the point he was cloned, she should remember fighting Electro two or three times. Nick Fury and co. do get him pinned down, despite him being Immune to Bullets. But the absolute Emperor of this trope has to be the hospital nurse who gave Electro 10ccs of anesthetic instead of 100ccs as prescribed. | |

Covers Always Lie | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_7315fd38 | comment |
Covers Always Lie: It's getting pretty egregious — the first five issues showed Miles in an outfit he had yet to receive, the sixth had an alternative cover that showed an unmasked Peter Parker being Spider-Man, and the eighth and ninth issue covers showed events that did not in any way occur within those issues, nor did they occur later on in the arc. | |

Put on a Bus | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_754df088 | comment |
Put on a Bus: Kitty Pride, Johnny Storm and Bobby Drake all left the title following "The Death of Spider-Man" and joined the new X-Men team. Aunt May and Gwen Stacy moved to France, to get away from the press hounding them in the final issue of Ultimate Fallout. It was mentioned however that they would return to the book, which they do in issue 11. Mary Jane, has not been seen since the finale of Ultimate Fallout, until the Spider-Men crossover. She shows up again during the Venom Wars arc. The Bus Came Back: It was a relatively short trip from France for May and Gwen Stacy, and Mary Jane joins them state-side. | |

Real Life Writes the Plot | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_786bf97f | comment |
Real Life Writes the Plot: Somewhat and rather humorously for the Hollywood arc, which is set during the filming of Spider-Man 2 and even uses the people who worked on the movie (Tobey Maguire, Sam Raimi). The real-life movie had come out not too long before, in the same year. The real Spider-Man isn't pleased when he finds out, to say the least. Although he's mostly annoyed that he can't get royalties from the movie, at least not without telling them his real-life identity. | |

From Bad to Worse | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_7870735b | comment |
From Bad to Worse Describes Peter's life pretty well, lampshaded during Ultimatum: And after the Hulk, he finds that an army of mystical beasties escaped Dr. Strange. Yeah, Ultimatum was not kind to anyone. Ironically, Spider-Man was the only series that didn't rack up a casualty list in the event. Also the whole "Ultimate Chameleon" arc. The series take on the Clone Saga felt like it had the unspoken goal of seeing just how much they could torture Peter. Mid-way through, while running from Nick Fury, he wonders why he doesn't lapse into a coma or something from the shock of it all happening in one night. | |

"The Reason You Suck" Speech | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_7d89315b | comment |
"The Reason You Suck" Speech Peter delivers a rather poignant one in issue #65, about why Flash is likely going to be a horrible person as an adult. Subverted, in that Flash doesn't actually hear it and it comes as a result of Kong trying to defend Flash's Jerkass tendancies again. Captain America delivers one to Peter in issue #156, calling him out for acting like an immature teenager instead of a soldier, and behaving irresponsibly. Whilst Cap has a point based on his own experiences with Peter, Peter is also justifiably insulted and asks if Cap's now "going say something more insulting?" Of course, Cap is proven horribly wrong throughout the remainder of the arc. In issue #160, Peter delivers one to Norman Osborn, while beating him down. | |

Establishing Character Moment | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_7febc23b | comment |
Establishing Character Moment Miles has just found out he's got spider powers. He's mortified that someone might find this out, partly because of the rampant anti-mutant hysteria proceeding Ultimatum (which at this point in the story line happened a short time ago), and partly because of his own father's strong dislike of mutants and super-powers in general. Then he and his friend Ganke happen across a burning building with people still trapped inside. Ganke tells Miles he should help. Cue Miles, who at this point hasn't even entertained the notion of being a Super-Hero, leaping without hesitation onto the burning building and saving the lives of two people and a dog. He does this in broad daylight in front of hundreds of witnesses, wearing nothing even resembling a mask, let alone a costume. This moment establishes that for all of Miles' reluctance, the moment he sees someone in trouble he will drop everything in order to help them. | |

| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_85f0963f | comment |
Psycho Serum: OZ, Norman Osborn's chemical cocktail seems to be able to do anything. Only those who absorbed the stuff through another medium (the modified spider that bit Peter, the explosion that turned Otto Octavius into Doc Ock) seem to escape the insanity that it inflicts. Except Mary Jane. | |

What Happened to the Mouse? | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: It's never revealed what happened to the two detectives, Rodriguez and Mary Lambow, following Ultimatum. Especially when Rodriguez pointing out Spider-Man interfering with police business and Mary hearing Spider-Woman calling May her aunt. It's never made clear what happened to Ben Reilly. The last we see of him is before Carnage gets loose, and nothing is mentioned of him afterward. Likewise with the Scorpion clone, although given he was last seen being handed over to S.H.I.E.L.D. scientists, he's most likely still in their custody, somehow. The Zodiac Key, which was treated like a big deal by the Kingpin, Black Cat, Mysterio and Iron Man, has never been mentioned since. Admittedly, that story did happen just before a massive Wham Episode. | |

While Miles is confused and disturbed by the the revelation, it isn't quite enough to come between them. Little does Miles know, however, the extent to which Jefferson's criminal instincts reach. | |

Create Your Own Hero | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_871cff0c | comment |
Create Your Own Hero: In the very start of the series, Norman Osborn is dealing with big and ugly experimental spiders, while wearing protective gloves. Then his lawyer calls and he starts discussing with him at the phone, and casually hands the spider to the employee next to him (who was not wearing any protection). Terrified, the guy throws the spider into her box, but he forgets to close it. The spider climbs out, and the rest, as they say, is history. | |

Bait-and-Switch | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_8797239c | comment |
Bait-and-Switch: The series does this quite often with references to the classic series (as well as occasional other adaptations): When Peter hears the Bugle is willing to pay for pictures of Spider-Man, he snaps a few shots of himself and takes them along, suggesting he's going to work as a photographer for the Bugle like he traditionally has in the mythology. But while Jonah is willing to give him $50 for one of the photos, he's not interested in employing some strange kid out of nowhere as a photographer; fortunately at this moment Betty Brant starts loudly venting her frustration with the Bugle's website which Jonah has assigned her to manage, and Peter steps up to fix it with his technical knowledge, instead earning himself a job as the Bugle's webmaster. Early in the series, Norman Osborn has Harry treated by a psychotherapist called Doctor Warren. Later on in the series, his full name is confirmed as Doctor Miles Warren when he starts dating Aunt May. However, he is barely ever mentioned again, and has nothing to do with the eventual Clone Saga. During the climax of Peter's first real clash with Norman Osborn, he grabs MJ, takes her to the top of the Queensboro Bridge and eventually throws her off. Peter dives down after her, snagging her by the ankle with a web line just before she hits the water (although conspicuously without a telltale "SNAP" sound effect) then scooping her up and carrying her back up to the bridge. The chapter ends with him trying to reassure her that he has her, only to find her unresponsive, causing him to mutter "Oh no..." and cradle her despairingly in his arms... and the next chapter opens with the same scene, only this time she opens her eyes. | |

Refusal of the Call | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_87b8f581 | comment |
Refusal of the Call: Despite his best friend's encouragement, and unlike Peter, Miles is far from happy with getting powers. Due to the fact that he knows that with great power comes giant killer robots, an arch enemy and if what happened to Peter is any indicator, death before he hits twenty... This is complicated by the fact that his Spider-Sense seems to be in cahoots with The Call. This makes things even worse in Miles' case since, as we know, trying to be Spider-Man means that The Call has him on speed-dial already, so he's got a triple dose of destiny, responsibility, and his own powers trying to kick him into trying to be Spider-Man. | |

Capitalism Is Bad | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_8b60a09b | comment |
Capitalism Is Bad: Ultimate Spider-Man takes this further than the Amazing Spider-Man (on account of Bendis being a more liberal figure than either Lee or Ditko were). Uncle Ben and Aunt May are ex-hippies with May still proud of her arrest record over a protest. When Peter tells Aunt May that Norman Osborn is a bad guy, Aunt May quotes Ben about how every rich person he knew acquired it illegally. A number of Peter's enemies, such as the Shocker, are Starving Student whose work was hijacked by corporations, the Kingpin owns Spider-Man's intellectual property and can buy his way out of a video showing him killing a man, and Peter's own father Richard Parker had his life's work (the Venom suit intended to cure cancer) defunded and complicated because corporations wanted to make it into weapons. | |

Superpower Lottery | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_8fac4a3a | comment |
Superpower Lottery: Miles has all the abilities that Peter had, plus a camouflage ability and a very handy "Venom Strike", which is essentially a debilitating stun that works through touch on or through just about any material. In the first couple dozen issues, only Taskmaster was shown to be able to resist it completely. It would probably be a lifesaver for any actual Spider-Man, but Miles is absolutely tiny at only 13 years old, so these new powers make up for his size and inexperience. There's also the fact that, according to the writer, his Spider-Sense is stronger then Peter's. | |

Art Shift The switch from Bagley to Immonen was noticeable, but not so jarring that it was untenable since the basic premise art-style and coloring remained the same. The subsequent shift from Immonen's more realistic style to Lafuente's more cartoonish style was far more jarring. The series is notable for averting this trope for several years. The series holds the record for longest consistent creative team on a Marvel comic. | |

At various times, other psychiatric and psychological specialists attempt to treat Norman Osborn and Otto Octavious, with a complete lack of success. On the other hand, played straight after the Clone Saga where MJ is left with PTSD after her ordeal. Reed Richards says it wouldn't be a bad idea for her to see a therapist, but of course there's no way she can as she wouldn't be able to tell them what she went through and why. | |

Send in the Clones | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_99be89b5 | comment |
Send in the Clones: The Clone Saga, 'natch. Which thankfully was handled much better here then the original series. For one thing, rather than running for several years, it was tied up in less than 10 issues. And for another, they make it pretty clear who the clones are, and there's only five of them. | |

Foreshadowing: An early issue of Volume 4 has a crazed prostitute screaming that the Multiverse is collapsing, and that soon all worlds will be merged into one. At the time, it seemed like a harmless Shout-Out to Jonathan Hickman's The Avengers and New Avengers storylines, but then came Secret Wars in which that actually happened. | |

I Let Gwen Stacy Die | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_9d4b58ba | comment |
I Let Gwen Stacy Die: Part of the reason why Miles tries to be Spider-Man is that he feels that his inaction when he received his powers caused Peter's death. Since he and Peter had near identical powers Miles felt that if they had ever met, Miles would been an asset to him by default and a potentially useful ally for Peter's final fight. In Cataclysm: Spider-Man #3, Miles' father, after finding out his son is Spider-Man, snaps at him by saying that he let his mother die. Miles just glares at him and tells him to don't start. | |

Subverted during the Clone saga. Peter asks Richard Parker how is it that Gwen Stacy is alive again. He starts narrating his whole origin story. He interrupted him several times, reminding him of the big question (at one point the question was even Punctuated! For! Emphasis!). Just wait a bit, we'll get to that... and eventually a big disaster happens outside, before he could end his lengthy explanation. | |

Cut Lex Luthor a Check | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_9fbf8969 | comment |
Cut Lex Luthor a Check Averted this time — Norman WANTED to be recognised for his work in this version (he never had any crazy plans about taking over the criminal underworld) but there was just two problems with his plan to sell his super-soldier goblin formula to the government: a) his formula sucked and b) he was a psychotic murderer. Lampshaded when Mysterio is introduced. Peter actually does this quite often, thanks to taking the "Power and Responsibility" message very seriously. It's averted again when he tries it on Shocker when Shocker captures him, chains him up and tortures him. Shocker, who IS actually a mechanical genius, tells Peter how he had a legitimate job at Roxxon Industries inventing powerful weapons, until they took his stuff and fired him. Zig-Zagged with Otto Octavius. He starts out as a legitimate scientist, albeit one involved in corporate espionage and insider-trading. It's brought up several times that his genius could improve people's lives (the technology used to build his arms could open fascinating possibilities for the disabled), but every time he escapes prison he reverts to using revenge to torment the people who wronged him. When Nick Fury offers him a chance to go straight and see a therapist, he pretends to cooperate just long enough to get his arms back and kill everyone who tried to help him. When the FBI give him a job researching gene therapy and super-powers, he just happens to do so by making a bunch of Spider-Man clones specifically designed to emotionally torture Peter. Finally he does decide to just retire from villainy altogether and become a normal scientist. At which point Osborn kills him. | |

Canon Discontinuity | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_a32334b4 | comment |
Canon Discontinuity: The game was originally planned to tie in to the comic directly, but was almost completely overwritten by the "War of the Symbiotes" arc. Still not a bad game, though. Kitty Pryde makes a big deal out of meeting Spider-Man for the first time in the Irresponsible arc. At this point, she is an established member of the X-Men. However, one of the first issues of Ultimate X-Men after she joins shows her accompanying the X-Men to save Wolverine from a group of decommissioned Weapon X soldiers. Spider-Man is the one who made the distress call and is there when she arrives. Nick Fury's temporary disappearance to another dimension does not seem to occur at a consistent point in the timeline either. These are both forgivable though, since they are continuity issues brought about by tie-ins rather than the individual series itself. For example, Ultimate Power takes place after The Clone Saga but features both Peter dating Kitty and has Peter referring to a debt he owes the Fantastic Four. Ultimate Marvel Team-Up shows Spidey going to meet the Fantastic Four (clearly inspired by the first regular issue of Amazing Spider-Man), and Spidey knows who the FF are, and they are pretty much the adult mainstream versions. The Ultimate version of the FF were later shown to be in their early twenties/late teens, and Spidey didn't know who or what Johnny Storm was when he showed up at Midtown High and later accidentally revealed his powers. | |

Chronic Hero Syndrome | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_ab68c5cc | comment |
Chronic Hero Syndrome After Gwen's death, Peter decides to give up being Spider-Man because he feels he's not making any difference. This lasts less than a week when he comes to the immediate realization that he simply can't ignore people in distress, no matter what. Even the new anti-mutant laws which forbid the use of mutant powers did not stop Kitty Pryde from playing superhero and saving the life of her ex-boyfriend more than once. | |

Oh, Crap!: Multiple characters when they see Miles in costume, and even more when some of them conclude he's the same as the real Spider-Man. The Prowler has a magnificent one in issue #9 as he gradually learns just how powerful the Scorpion is. Miles' reaction when he realizes that not only is he being approached by a resurrected Green Goblin, he is in the same exact place that Peter died fighting him last time. | |

Deadpan Snarker: Though Miles is in no way the supreme snarker that Peter Parker was, he is learning, and like Peter can be rather sarcastic in his inner monologues. In issue #07, he gets in a couple of battle quips during his battle with Omega Red, even mentally scolding himself for how bad they are, and Omega Red actually takes one of the quips as a sign that it's the same Spider-Man: Definitely in the blood. After Miles mopes through dinner: | |

BoringFailureHero | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_aecd6522 | comment |
Boring Failure Hero: Averted. Most notably after Ultimatum Wave, where Jameson sees Spider-Man swing into the worst of the disaster to save civilians, presumes him dead, and prints an issue actually admitting that Spidey is a hero. While outraged when it turns out Spider-Man isn't dead, the reputation boost has stuck so far. Case in point; one issue has Spidey be caught by guards that were just knocked out by Mysterio in a thwarted attempt to rob a gold shipment. In his mainstream universe, they would have immediately leapt to the conclusion he was the one responsible and his reputation would have suffered yet-another-low. Here? The next panel is a newspaper article showing that they actually heard him out and believed him. And then The Chameleon steals his Spider-Man identity and created chaos all over the city, so he's back to this again. However, during all this, one of the Chameleon twins shoots Jameson in the head, Spider-Man struggles to save JJJ's life, revealing his secret identity to him in the process. In hospital, Jameson tells his reporters that he knows who Spider-Man is... but he's not going to reveal his identity, as Spidey has convinced him that he truly is a hero. Instead, he swears to put out the truth — that the "evil Spider-Man" who caused chaos all over the city was actually an impostor — and vows that he will use his newspaper to help Spider-Man. | |

Setting Update: The entire series is a modern retelling of the Spider-Man mythos. Volume 2 is essentially a modern version of Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends, with the Human Torch instead of Firestarnote ironic, as Torch was supposed to be on Amazing Friends all along, until rights issues meant they had to create an entirely new character for the show, and a few more teen heroes joining the cast too. | |

It crosses into PCM however when Miles basically gives Bombshell consent to beat the crap out of her, even though Bombshell herself isn't so different from Katie, being she too was once an active criminal due to following her mother's lead. | |

Retcon: When the Blade encounter from the Ultimate Spider-Man Super Special one-shot got revisited in the "Morbius" arc, Blade was clean-shaven, wearing a movie-inspired outfit, and said his name. In the original special, Blade had a beard, an outfit that was a cross between the movie and original comics outfits, and never told Spidey his name when he threatened him. | |

Peter is unsure about it, as he does not like sports that much, but when Flash insists they take anyone but him, Peter accepts, just to screw with him. | |

Everyone Has Standards | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_b4a6ae4c | comment |
Everyone Has Standards: High standards at that. While he's not evil, Jameson was antagonistic towards Peter for most of his run as Spider-Man, and refused to run a story outing Miles's secret identity if there's really no other point, no impact or importance, to that story. It'd accomplish nothing except to seriously screw over Miles. Interestingly enough, the reason why they went back to ranting about Spider-Man was because Jonah (and a lot of people in New York) felt that Miles taking the "Spider-Man" name (and his bumbling first appearance) showed nothing but disrespect for Peter's memory. | |

Demoted to Extra: Quite a few of Spidey's extensive rouges gallery and supporting cast end up as this. Flash Thompson plays a far less prominent role here than the mainstream universe. The Lizard, who doesn't even appear in the series proper aside from as Curt Conners in the Venom and Carnage arcs, only appearing in an issue of Ultimate Marvel Team-Up. Cletus Kasady in the original continuity was the human host for the Carnage symbiote. In the Ultimate continuity, he has no connection to the Ultimate version of Carnage and his only acknowledgement is having his name appear on a list of cat burglars Peter searches through in the 53rd issue. Longtime foe the Rhino only makes a few appearances as a nameless guy in Powered Armor. Spider-Man doesn't even fight him in his first appearance, showing up just in time to see Iron Man already took care of him. | |

The Prowler then manipulates Miles into working with him, justifying it with the idea that they have a "responsibility" towards each-other. Anyone who knows anything about the actual Spider-Man's origins can see how this is going... places where it shouldn't be going. | |

Let's You and Him Fight: Miles accidentally starts a fight when he tries to get on board the helicarrier to ask if he can join the Ultimates. Unfortunately, America is in the middle of a war and in a state of extreme turmoil and the helicarrier was on high alert. | |

Appropriated Appellation | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_c4842ab1 | comment |
Appropriated Appellation Ultimate Mysterio explained it this way: "'But you can keep calling me Mysterio. I like that. I would have never come up with that name myself but it's out there now... and I like it.'" This may have been a ruse by Ultimate Mysterio, who was revealed to be an android controlled by the mainstream Mysterio. Also Spider-Man himself. He needed a stage name in the wrestling arena, so he chose the name "The Spider". The announcer fixed it in the fly, and gave him the name "Spider-Man". Peter complained for a moment, but then he liked it. | |

Yank the Dog's Chain: Things are looking up in Peter's life. He's well liked by the general public for once and no longer viewed as a criminal. He's getting official superhero training to prepare him for a life of government sanctioned celebrity level superheroism. He's been guaranteed a high paying job at Stark Industries. JJ knows he's Spider-Man and not only gives him his old job back but also gives him a payraise, an infinite get-out-of-jail free card that let him ditch work to be Spider-Man, and free college tuition should he survive long enough to go to college. Peter even gets his old girlfriend back as a cherry on top. Almost immediately after this turn of good luck he takes a bullet meant for Captain America and dies in a final battle with the Sinister Six. | |

Fan Disservice | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_c660bc15 | comment |
Fan Disservice: Most of the villains have fought Peter in the nude (see below). Considering the fact that most of them are middle-aged men, this is some intense Fan Disservice. Not so much when Carnage was depowered in the middle of a fight and revealed to be a naked Gwen Stacy. YMMV on Kraven, Norman Osborn, and Flint, who actually look attractive. The old Vulture-looking Blackie Drago, the full-body scarred Electro and Doc Ock on the other hand.... | |

Shout-Out | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: There's a strong resemblance in Miles' first Spider suit and the look of the costume from The Amazing Spider-Man (other than the loose-fitting gloves and boots). His official costume resembles a reworked version of Alex Ross' unused design from the first Spider-Man movie (which itself was later brought into continuity in Superior Spider Man). Gwen Stacy calling Captain America a jerk for forbidding Miles from trying to be Spider-Man is an homage to a moment in the 616 verse where Kitty Pryde said the same thing about Professor Xavier for kicking her out of the X-Men and putting her on the New Mutants, right at the start of Uncanny X-Men #168 (1983). Even their poses are the same. | |

Series Continuity Error | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_ca95473c | comment |
Series Continuity Error: In the Clone Saga, the clones are said to be the result of a CIA operation, by several members of the CIA. Then, without any fanfare whatsoever, some issues down the line this changes to Roxxon, and Peter and Spider-Woman act like it's been Roxxon all along, and the CIA thing is completely forgotten (although there are a such thing as government contracts so while it was a CIA-headed operation, it was Roxxon scientists who actually created the clones). The stories featured in the Requiem issues are near-irreconcilable with Ultimate Marvel's continuity, like the appearance of Hydra (which didn't exist until after the Death of Spider-Man storyline), or Hulk being green and chased by the army (Prior to The Ultimates Bruce Banner only became the Hulk once and was an employee of S.H.I.E.L.D.). They might be a case of Unreliable Narrator, considering they're stories gathered by Ben Urich. | |

Corrupt Corporate Executive | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_cbe687ab | comment |
Corrupt Corporate Executive: Apparently the real villains of the series, as pointed out by Shocker in his Motive Rant. Norman Osborn, Justin Hammer, Bolivar Trask and Donald Roxxon just for starters, although Roxxon comes across as more of an idiot than outright evil. Uncle Ben had two personal sayings advising people to be wary of Corrupt Corporate Executives: "Never met a man with money who hadn't stepped on someone to get it" and "Never trust anyone wearing a tie," neither of which were shown being spoken by him. Aunt May said the first one when Peter told her he didn't want Norman and Harry in their lives anymore and Peter had a recording of his father saying the second one after his dealings with Roxxon backfired. | |

Superhero School | |

Superhero School: Peter has to go to this after he gets out of school. His teachers? Thor, Captain America, and Iron Man. Averted when they actually sit down and try to teach him. Iron Man basically admits he has no lesson plan and his "Training" quickly just becomes him and Peter hanging out and talking about technology. Captain America (who actually suggested Peter be forced to give up being Spider-Man) only takes him out into a veteran cemetery and try to shame him into quitting. Thor, meanwhile, never gets a chance to talk to Peter. The fact that they didn't really teach Peter anything is pointed out by Aunt May after Peter dies. Bearing in mind, she was one of the people who talked Peter into the agreement in the first place. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard | |

Hoist by His Own Petard: All over the place in issues #91-#94 when Spider-Man and the X-Men are kidnapped to be hunted down and killed on live television. The hunt itself, when Spider-Man and the X-Men prove capable of beating the hunters. The hunt is the point of the TV show, sure, but one imagines they could've still gotten decent ratings by skipping right to the execution with everyone still chained up. Spider-Man is included by accident, something Deadpool sees as a bonus. Spider-Man is also the only one who isn't fooled when Deadpool tries to impersonate Xavier to get the drop on the X-Men and promptly kicks him in the face. Xavier has a Power Nullifier strapped on and is strung up inside Mojo's compound so he can be Forced to Watch the X-Men be killed before being lobotomized in what Mojo sees as poetic justice, instead of being thrown into the jungle with the X-Men where he would last approximately three seconds. This gives Xavier ample time to free himself of the Power Nullifier and Mind Rape Mojo so badly that it's given a Gory Discretion Shot. | |

Personal Hate Before Common Goals: At the start of the story arc "Warriors", criminal boss Silvermane has called Hammerhead for a meeting. Taking into account Kingpin's late legal problems, he tries to convince him that this is the chance for them to work together, and take a chunk of Fisk's criminal empire. Silvermane then proceeds to compliment Hammerhead, saying that even when they were at odds, he respected his talents and way of work. And that with a little more of head, he could go very far. When he concludes, Hammerhead says that he likes a lot of what Silvermane said, except for one thing. When he asks what, Hammerhead grabs his head and snaps his neck. Only then answering that he took offense to his commentary of him lacking head. | |

Peter actually does this quite often, thanks to taking the "Power and Responsibility" message very seriously.

Shocker, who IS actually a mechanical genius, tells Peter how he had a legitimate job at Roxxon Industries inventing powerful weapons, until they took his stuff and fired him. | |

The Ultimate Spider-Man version of Kraven the Hunter had no powers initially, allowing Spidey to cream him in their first fight. Later he alters his DNA and becomes a horrific werewolf-like creature, and is arrested by the Ultimates who remove said alterations. | |

Hand Wave: Subverted in Peter's first meeting with Nick Fury. Peter wanted to know how did Fury find out his secret identity, and Fury told him that there are few things in the world that he doesn't know. But Peter insisted. So Fury listed some of Peter's old adventures, that if you stop to think it for a moment, should have revealed his secret identity indeed. | |

They Would Cut You Up: Defied. Spidey initially assumes this is what Nick Fury is talking about when he says that he's not going to do anything to him while he's still a kid, telling him to enjoy his solo time before he's 18. Peter takes this as a warning that he'll be imprisoned or experimented on when he comes of age, and berates Fury for this. Fury cuts him off, saying what he actually meant is that when Parker turns 18, he's going to be allowed to officially join the Ultimates as a peer and work alongside the other established heroes. | |

| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_df582b0b | comment |
Continuity Snarl: Kenny McFarlane's Wikipedia page has a whole section dedicated to the many names Bendis gave him before deciding on that one. Additionally, as mentioned under Adaptation Name Change, there's the kerfuffle over Curt Conners' wife's name in this universe. A bad example comes from the Ultimatum tie-in arc. Issue 131 sees Peter and the Hulk discover Daredevil's body and Peter remark that he didn't know who Daredevil was until Bruce said something — which ignores that he learned it in the "Knights" arc as Peter was personally recruited by Matt in their respective civilian guises, with Matt introducing himself by name and stating he was an attorney and Peter was even there when Matt's law office blew up. | |

Who Would Want to Watch Us?: The Hollywood arc, tying in with Spider-Man 2 (complete with Sam, Avi and Tobey). Peter goes to the set to give them a piece of his mind, only to learn that they don't have to pay him since he's a public entity and he refuses to reveal his identity; they even film him using his powers so they can work it into the film for nothing. When Doc Ock attacks the set, the ensuing fight also gets worked into the movie. | |

| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_e4965307 | comment |
Composite Character: Harry Osborn, who became the Green Goblin in the original series, becomes the Hobgoblin in Ultimate Spidey. Similarly, Spider-Woman takes the role of Ben Reilly, who in this version is an older black man who helped make Peter's clones instead of being a clone himself. Tarantula and the first Scorpion are also clones and Kaine wears a tattered version of Ben Reilly's Spider-Man costume. According to Bendis on his message board, the Goblin creature Mary Jane turned into during the Ultimate Clone Saga is Demogoblin, who in the mainstream universe, as his name implies, is a demon. Doctor Octopus takes Miles Warren's role as the creator of the Spider-Clones. Moon Knight has the characters Paladin and Ronin as Split Personalities. Liz Allan takes on the powers and codename of Firestar. The second Scorpion is one between the original Scorpion (having an almost-similar name) and the Black Tarantula (a Hispanic crime lord who, likewise, has ambiguous superhuman powers). | |

Bishōnen Line: The Carnage creature starts out as a vaguely humanoid fleshy lump the size of a baby and evolves as it attacks people and drains them of blood, roughly resembling the main universe version of Carnage right before it kills Gwen. After that it gains the ability to briefly morph its head into something almost human that resembles Peter (since it was created from, among other things, his blood), but still looks completely monstrous. After draining two cops during its fight with Peter, it reaches what seems to be a mostly perfected form- aside from the clawed hands and feet and Combat Tentacles, it otherwise resembles an almost-completely human and naked version of Peter's father. | |

Adaptation Origin Connection | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_e8dca77c | comment |
Adaptation Origin Connection: Does this three times over. First, Norman Osborn becomes the Green Goblin thanks to the same Applied Phlebotinum that affected the spider that empowered Peter Parker, which caused an accident that made Otto Octavius into Doctor Octopus and Harry into the Hobgoblin; and another recurring Big Bad candidate, the Kingpin, is connected to Spider-Man's origin in that the burglar who killed Uncle Ben is one of his lower-level thugs. Finally, Venom is the result of experiments performed by Peter's parents. And to the Ultimate Marvel Universe as a whole, since Osborn was (like many, many others) attempting to recreate the Super-Soldier Serum used on Captain America. | |

Opposite-Sex Clone | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_e9702c83 | comment |
How Whammy was the Ultimate Clone Saga? Peter meets a crazy supervillain with his face. MJ gets kidnapped by an insane, deformed clone of Peter. Peter meets a "Spider-Woman" who knocks him out. Peter finds Gwen Stacey apparently back from the dead. Aunt May finds out Peter's secret and hysterically tells him to get the hell out. Richard Parker walks in the front door, apparently having been alive all along. Nick Fury shows up with an army of Spider Slayers to arrest Peter. "Gwen" transforms into Carnage, the monster that killed her and attacks Fury. Aunt May has a heart attack. "Spider-Woman" rescues Peter from Nick Fury and reveals herself to be an Opposite-Sex Clone of him. The deformed clone beats up another clone which has 6 arms and mutates MJ with OZ, causing her to turn into a horrific hairy monster when she gets angry or frightened. "Richard Parker" turns out to be an artificially aged clone of Peter with fake memories. It turns out the one behind it all was Doctor Octopus, who is now working for the CIA. And Doc Ock's power isn't control over his tentacles after all — it's absolute control over metal. | |

Lost in Imitation | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_ea24a918 | comment |
Lost in Imitation: Ultimate Spider-Man greatly inspired some of the tropes in later Spider-Man adaptations and stories: Unlike the original Earth-616 Spider-Man from the Mainstream universe (who was asocial and came from a Friendless Background during his teenage years), Ultimate Spider-Man has a confidant in Mary-Jane with whom he shares his secret identity, his worries, and who also serves as a backup. This setup came into movies such as Spider-Man: Homecoming where Ned Lee (based on Ultimate Ganke) serves as Peter's "guy in the chair". Peter's role in the wider superhero community, being seen as Just a Kid, being underestimated by them yet getting mixed messages about how he's a Future Badass, was also incorporated into later adaptations, especially Marvel's Spider-Man and Marvel Cinematic Universe. | |

Cain and Abel | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_eba6a077 | comment |
Cain and Abel: The Prowler and Miles Morales, uncle and nephew, have this dynamic. Their first meeting in their costumes leads to a violent clash, and the Prowler soon blackmails Miles Morales into bending his moral code. Needless to say, the tension between the two quickly ascends to full-on estrangement, and ends in an all-out war between the two that ends with the Prowler's violent death. | |

Decomposite Character | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_f0508c08 | comment |
Decomposite Character: Ben Reilly is an African-American man who's not related to Peter Parker in anyway. Tinkerer got this treatment with Elijah Stern taking the Tinkerer identity and Phineas Mason (the Tinkerer in the classic Marvel Universe) later appeared in Ultimate Fantastic Four Annual #2. Doctor Octopus takes Miles Warren's role as creator of the Spider-Clones. The Mac Gargan Scorpion becomes both the Clone Saga Scorpion-Peter Parker, and a Mexican crime lord. Neither actually resemble him all that much, except that the former has the costume and the latter (almost) his name. Flash's role of bullying Peter but eventually maturing and becoming one of his best friends in the mainstream comics is given to Kenny "Kong" McFarlane here while Flash has a reduced role. | |

Spider-Sense | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_f1c860c4 | comment |
This is complicated by the fact that his Spider-Sense seems to be in cahoots with The Call. This makes things even worse in Miles' case since, as we know, trying to be Spider-Man means that The Call has him on speed-dial already, so he's got a triple dose of destiny, responsibility, and his own powers trying to kick him into trying to be Spider-Man. | |

Suspiciously Similar Substitute: May has prepared meat loaf. Pizza? Meat loaf. Pizza? Meat Loaf. Pizza? Very well, pizza. Pizza that looks and tastes an awful lot like meat loaf... Bendis made Ultimate Black Cat into a much older crime fighter than Peter, however the classic dynamic that Black Cat has with Peter (loves Spider-Man more than the man in the costume, and provides him companionship in his superhero activity) is given to Ultimate Kitty Pryde aka Shadowcat. During the period in which they are a couple, Kitty Pryde even wore a special superhero costume that was dark and had a cat-like face-mask. | |

Earn Your Happy Ending | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_f64a9cf7 | comment |
Earn Your Happy Ending: A decent amount of time after Peter's death and Miles's donning of the Spider-Man identity, Earth-1610 (also known as the universe that Ultimate Spider-Man takes place in) was destroyed entirely, and only a few survivors, such as Miles, were allowed to emigrate to Earth-616, the mainstream Marvel universe. However, thanks to Reed Richards efforts, Earth-1610 was eventually restored and all the people in it were revived. The ending of Spider-Men II reveals the Earth-616 Miles Morales going to the restored Earth-1610, where Peter is now living out his adulthood as Spider-Man, finally part of the Ultimates as Nick Fury always told him he would be when he turned 18. He's once again dating MJ, living with Gwen as part of the family, and Aunt May now has a boyfriend. And Peter seems very content with his life these days. Alls well that ends well. | |

Victory by Endurance: This is how Norman Osborn kills Peter Parker. After battling several other threats alongside The Ultimates (including taking a bullet for Captain America), Peter tries to hobble home and receive medical attention. But when he gets there, his loved ones are being harassed by the Green Goblin and several others from Spider-man's Rogues Gallery. Peter (and his family/allies) fight back valiantly, but Peter eventually succumbs to his injuries. | |

Running Gag | |
| Ultimate Spider-Man (2000) (Comic Book) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: The repeated "That costume is in really bad taste." comments during Miles' early appearances. Repeated to a very confused 616-Peter, in Spider-Men. Volumes 3 and 4 have the same "shouting suspect in the police station referencing outside events" gag. Some guy dressed in Ms. Marvel drag was shouting about two worlds melding into one which was foreshadowing 2015's Secret Wars or referencing DC Comics' Convergence event. And in the final issue of volume 4, a guy (who's drawn to look like Jonathan Hickman dressed as Captain Universe was screaming about everything being his fault again referencing his the end of his The Avengers run and 2015's Secret Wars. | |

Cue boss battle where he has to fight off both Silver Sable and her mercenaries while trying not to succumb to the effects of the tranquilizers in his system. | |

As always, the hard-hitting newspaperman J. Jonah Jameson, whose personality is a lot more stable and consistent since he's only being written by a single person this time. Jameson in this version needs people to talk him down from his rants and is a massive hassle to work with, but he's also got all the integrity of his mainstream counterpart and Spider-Man isn't anywhere near as much of a Berserk Button as it usually is. | |
