Comic Con 2018: 10 Biggest Rumours‏

1. A New Spider-Man PS4 Trailer

Insomniac's Spider-Man game is only a few months away from release, but don't expect Sony to let up on its marketing. Insomniac are set to bring the title to SDCC and, following on from the last look we saw at E3, fans can probably expect to see a final tease of the story.

The big talking point from last month was, of course, the identity of the mystery character that appeared at the end of the E3 demo. Whether it's Doc Ock, Green Goblin, or potentially even Iron Man matters not, because it's still apparent that this title could become this generation's Batman: Arkham, despite recent concerns that have begun to emerge as more gameplay is revealed.

When quizzed on whether or not Insomniac would show off a trailer at the event on Twitter, Insomniac Creative Director Bryan Intihar replied with a teasing response:

If there is one, then it could be the last proper look fans get at the game prior to the launch trailer. It's all tantalisingly close to happening, with the game having been announced some two years ago, so the fact fans only have to wait a few more months makes it all the more exciting.

Could we see a new villain? A potential hero even? No one knows, but one thing we can be certain of is that fans who get to play the demo are all very lucky indeed.

Content Producer/Presenter

WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well. In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
