Quick question, but in the beginning of ATSV, we see a shot that feels pretty purposeful of Miguel about to bite into the villain's (forgot his name) neck.

I was wondering if this is important to Miguel and his character in the comics..? Because as an average viewer, I don't think that's ever really explained in ATSV for us, for why Miguel would need to do that (unless I'm forgetting something).

Or was it just another way to show how different Miguel is compared to the other spiders? Specifically the whole "are you sure you're spiderman?" thing (I also think Miles or Gwen commented on how Miguel doesn't look like a good guy at some point 🤔)

Anyways, was just curious and wanted to ask since you seem like the go-to person for Miguel lore and information. The resident Miguel archive and library, if you will.

Miguel wasn't bitten by a radioactive spider, he had his DNA *scrambled* with actual evil scientist spider experiment DNA, as well as a bunch of other unspecified shit his coworker threw in an attempt to kill him (because comics are very silly about science) normal spidermen -- like peter for example -- mostly get enhanced strength and senses etc as superpowers; while miguel functions a lot more like a mutant.

He doesn't have spider-sense, but he produces biological webbing, has spinnerets jutting out of his forearms, has to deal with hyper-sensitive eyes that allow him superhuman vision at the cost of being very vulnerable to sunlight (he wears sunglasses everywhere out of costume), and instead of sticking to walls via little hairs Miguel has the big razorlike talons on his hands and feet, which is kind of why you see him being so destructive in that chase scene while everyone else just crawls around LOL. The bite moment on the movie is a bit of fanservice to another one of Miguel's exclusive powers: he has fangs that can deliver a paralyzing venom shot into his enemies. The Vulture wasn't calming down and Miguel was going to restrain him, but then the helicopter shines that big ass spotlight on his face (bad)

I personally write him as being *sound* sensitive as well, since spiders can communicate via web vibrations and he should be able to pick up on that. Technically speaking theres a bunch of other spider behaviors you could justify as being part of Miguel's instincts now.

+ He's not actually a vampire. It's just a funny comparison people make now that he needs dark environments to be comfortable / has the big fangs. (I still think its sexy and fun to make vampire fanart tho :shrug:)

I mean it when I say gojo is like a creature to me... with these recent chapters he looks like some little animal

Is it a stupid idea? Yes. Did I have to go overboard and animate it? No.

But I had to and I'm not sorry ;P
