Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse - 28 Easter Eggs & References Explained
6. Spider-Man PS4's Advanced Suit
Sony
Although this isn't the best view Into the Spider-Verse provides for the Advanced Suit, you can spot it nestled between Aunt May and Jake Johnson's Spider-Man. Fans of the aforementioned Insomniac Spider-Man game will no doubt recognise it too, as it's the main outfit Peter Parker uses in that interpretation of the Marvel Universe.
The white spider engendered a love or hate response among Spidey's fans, but it's an iconic look and one that's proven to be both a win for Insomniac, as they now have an instantly identifiable version of Spidey, and for Sony, who now have a comic book character who's synonymous with the PlayStation brand.
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.
