Our little Spider-Man is growing up.
0:02
Peter Parker underwent some big changes
0:04
in Brand New Day. Here's how it happens
0:06
and all the new stuff he can do.
0:08
Spoilers ahead. Pretty early on in Brand
0:10
New Day, Peter notices that weird things
0:12
are happening with his [music] body.
0:13
During a fight with a scorpion, he wigs
0:15
out a little bit and accidentally hurts
0:16
some bystanders. [music] That's when he
0:18
goes to visit Bruce Banner and discovers
0:20
he's undergoing a genetic mutation
0:21
that's causing all these changes. If DNA
0:24
is mutating, it would be [music]
0:25
enormously dangerous.
0:28
Peter tries to contain his mutation with
0:30
an inhibitor similar to the one Banner
0:32
uses to keep the Hulk [music] in check.
0:33
Eventually though, Peter simply comes to
0:35
accept how he has evolved and live with
0:36
it. As soon as the trailer is revealed
0:38
that this was going to be a plotline,
0:40
fans started recalling a 2006 comic
0:42
story called The Other. That story opens
0:44
with Peter having unexplained weird
0:46
dreams and blackouts. He learns that
0:48
he's apparently dying and the super
0:50
strong villain Morlin speeds that up by
0:52
beating Peter to a bloody [music] pulp.
0:53
Everyone believes that Peter is dead,
0:55
but he's actually going through a
0:56
metamorphosis somewhat like the one he
0:58
experiences in the movie. Peter sheds
1:00
his skin, goes into a cocoon, and
1:02
emerges with new, more spider-like
1:04
powers. Among those are stingers, fangs,
1:06
night vision, and the ability to carry
1:08
things and people by sticking them to
1:10
[music] his back. Those are not
1:12
specifically the new powers he gets in
1:14
Brand New Day. So, let's dig into what
1:16
he does.
1:17
One key new power Spidey gets in Brand
1:19
New Day is that he can produce his own
1:21
webs, like from his body. [screaming]
1:25
>> What the
1:25
>> The theme song always said Spider-Man
1:27
can do whatever a spider can. But for
1:29
most of his comics history, Spidey
1:31
hasn't actually been able to make and
1:32
shoot webs on his own. Don't believe
1:34
every song you hear. [music]
1:39
>> Since his origin all the way back in
1:41
1962, Peter's webs have mainly come from
1:43
mechanical web shooters he built.
1:45
They're on his wrists, hidden under his
1:47
costume. The various movie versions of
1:48
Spider-Man have gone back and forth on
1:50
this. Director Sam Ramy decided to
1:52
dispense with the [music] mechanical web
1:54
shooters. He just made spinning webs any
1:56
size. One of the powers Tobey Magcguire
1:58
Spider-Man got from his power granting
2:00
spider bite. Both Andrew Garfield and
2:02
Tom Holland Spideies were introduced
2:03
with the mechanical [music] web shooters
2:05
though. The difference even got brought
2:06
up in No Way Home.
2:09
>> Wa!
2:10
>> That came out of you.
2:11
>> Yeah.
2:12
>> You can't do that, huh?
2:14
>> No. How on earth does that even Anyway,
2:16
we're getting sidetracked.
2:17
>> Now, Holland is a member of the Toby
2:19
Club. Looks like Peter has occasionally
2:21
had organic webs in the comics, too.
2:23
Namely, right after the Remy movies came
2:25
out. But other versions of Spider-Man
2:27
have had organic webbing from the get-
2:28
go, like Spider-Man 2099 and Peter's
2:31
clone, Kane.
2:33
The Peter Parker we see in Brand New Day
2:35
has grown up a lot. He's more mature and
2:37
self-reliant. He doesn't have the
2:39
resources of Tony Stark to fall back on.
2:41
So maybe, just maybe, he's outgrown the
2:43
term Peter Tingle. It helps that Happy
2:45
Hogan doesn't remember who he is anymore
2:47
to remind him, but also his danger sense
2:49
has leveled up considerably. There are
2:51
moments in the movie where his eyes go
2:53
black and he seems to go into a sort of
2:55
fighting fugue [music] state where he
2:57
knows what his opponents are going to do
2:58
before they even do it. Spider Sense has
3:00
been a key Spider-Man ability since the
3:02
very beginning. It's something Peter
3:04
quite frankly needs since he doesn't
3:06
have worldclass fight training and is
3:08
incredibly vulnerable to injury. Oh my
3:11
back.
3:12
>> It even helps show when a villain of his
3:13
is a serious threat. If they can bypass
3:16
his spider sense, which a few have the
3:18
ability to do, they're a step above. On
3:20
top of that, Peter's spider sense can
3:22
occasionally overload when there's quite
3:23
simply too [music] much danger around
3:25
him, leaving him almost helpless. It's
3:27
unclear at this point just what
3:28
Holland's Spidey having this amped up
3:30
spider sense will ultimately mean. But
3:32
the same thing has happened in the
3:33
comics a handful of times. For instance,
3:35
just before the events of the other,
3:36
Spider-Man's spider sense was enhanced
3:38
by a villain named the queen. In a very
3:40
recent comic story, Peter trained with
3:42
Daredevil to hone his spider sense into
3:44
its true form, giving him the ability to
3:46
enter a translike state while fighting.
3:48
Sort of like what happens in Brand New
3:49
Day. If there's one descriptive word
3:52
you'd surely use to describe Spider-Man,
3:54
it's [music] agile. The guy can move.
3:56
So, how does someone who's already among
3:57
the most agile people alive become more
3:59
so? Beats us, but the robot voice says
4:02
it happened.
4:02
>> Yeah, you're okay. increased agility.
4:05
>> Sorry about that.
4:06
>> To be real, this seems to be tied into
4:08
Spider-Man's more attuned to spider
4:10
sense. The danger warnings can get
4:11
better and better all you want, but
4:13
Peter's ability to react to what the
4:15
warnings tell him has to level up with
4:16
it for him to actually avoid the danger.
4:18
[music]
4:19
One of the results of the other was
4:20
Peter gaining even better reflexes to
4:22
make him faster and more agile. He can
4:24
make himself glide to a car going full
4:26
speed. So, yeah, Spider-Man can be more
4:28
agile without becoming full out the
4:30
Flash. But it's worth noting that in the
4:32
comics, all of Peter's other upgrades
4:34
got undone with the brand new day
4:36
storyline of all things.
4:39
It's easy to forget that Spider-Man is
4:41
really strong. He fights a lot of
4:43
superpowered bad guys and hangs around
4:45
with other superheroes like say Thor and
4:47
the Hulk who can outb him with ease. But
4:49
compared to anyone without superpowers,
4:51
Spider-Man is immensely strong. He can
4:53
lift a car over his head. He's held up
4:56
buildings. He's known for often lifting
4:58
a whole bunch of rubble off of himself
4:59
after remembering what he's fighting
5:01
for.
5:03
>> Come on, Spider-Man.
5:05
Come on, Spider-Man.
5:07
>> Having strength beyond his typical
5:08
punching power put Spidey on a more
5:10
equal level [music] with his superhero
5:11
contemporaries. So, if he were to say
5:13
get placed in a Secret War style
5:15
scenario where he's forced to duke it
5:17
out with his peers, he'd have a fighting
5:18
chance. Just spitballing ideas here.
5:21
Spidey has upped his strength a few
5:22
times in the comics. [music] Perhaps
5:24
most notably in the story where he
5:25
gained the powers of the Enigma Force
5:27
and became Captain Universe for a brief
5:29
time. That made him strong enough to
5:30
punch the Hulk into space. We don't
5:33
think he's going to be that strong
5:34
because of his mutation, but we'll see.
