Into The Spider-Verse 2: 10 Alternate Spider-Men That Must Appear

4. Anansi

Spider-Verse Multiple
Marvel Comics

Anansi isn't the most well known of characters, appearing in but two issues in total, one of which being the now pretty much forgotten series from 2007, Spider-Man: Fairy Tales, as well as a story in the Spider-Verse comics, his history isn't exactly the most lengthy.

Though, even from his brief appearances, the character's trickery has been thouroughly enjoyable, and would very easily fit into the multiverse seen in the movie.

So, who is he anyway? Well, unlike your tradtional alternate universe characters, Anansi shares very few similarities with the original, his spider-centric identity and ability to use webs aside, he is nothing like Peter Parker, with this version being an African god, who only goes on quests to interrupt his boredom, something which would perfectly juxtapose the righteousness of the other spider-people.
