Some random spider noir information from the comics! I’ve specified where the movies might come in and fanon stuff!
Noir was raised to be and is a socialist activist.
Dude most likely has a 1920-30s NY Bowery accent.
His first run takes place in 1933, in ITSV he comes from 1933, his second run(EWAF)takes place 8 mo. after, so he’d be coming off EWAF to ATSV.
Age wise this makes him 17-20.
Noir has been spiderman for like 2 yrs at most by ATSV, he started in 1933 and is from 1933 in ITSV.
Was bitten by a mythical spider rather than a radioactive one(its a whole thing let’s not get into it).
His costume is/based on his Uncle’s WW1 fighter pilot outfit
He has a black cat named Ding Ding.
Has an ambiguously strained relationship with aunt May bc she’s against killing, he is not.
Yes, he kills Nazis.
Yes, his uncle was cannibalized, his ‘love’ interest had her face mutilated, and his best friend was lobotomized.
Had two paternal figures named ‘Ben’ who died lol.
One of the few spiders who are always strapped.
Has organic black webbing!
If I’m remembering this right unlike the other Peters he’s more interested in physics than bio.
In the comics he’s not as physically strong as the other spiders and carries around a small vile of venom for emergencies.
He lives/grew up in a Bowery welfare center with his Aunt and Mj(sometimes) but later gets his own office/apartment.
Recruited to Superiors death squad before working with the other spiders.
Has died at least once(confirmed), but implied multiple times, and was resurrected from another dimension by a spider god back to his own universe.
Fanon wise, most people call him some variation of Benjamin(while avoiding Ben lol) like Benj, Benji, B, etc. with various justifications but ultimately to more easily differentiate between the other Peters. Me personally, I think he takes on the name ‘Benjamin Urich’ but that’s a different post.
Noir does have canon love interests. He has had a romantic(mostly sexual) relationship with White Widow aka Felicia Hardy, but she was like 40 he was like 16/17 it’s weird and gross. He has also had a weird relationship with his MJ but it’s not super flushed out and he even says in the comics it’s strained, so most fanon views her as a sister figure.
Fanon wise, he is often shipped with his best friend Robbie Robertson(who dies very traumatically) or Jean DeWolfe, a federal agent, he’s seen working with. Recently, I’ve seen him shipped with a lot more characters, most notably Ham, Hobie, and Miguel.

The complete shutout for Killers of The Flower Moon after the praise for its nominations is incredibly telling of how performative The Academy always has and will be.
The Osage murders were ignored for decades because the story wasn’t sensationalized enough to be “cared” about by people. It wasn’t a “big enough issue” to be treated with a fraction of respect or attention that it deserved.
Martin Scorsese did about everything he could to get Killers of the Flower Moon on the radar of those who would’ve otherwise completely ignored it [direct and fund it himself, two academy darling actors in main roles], and did so much outside of what they would want [made sure to give platform and voices to the Osage people where most would speak over them, even going as far to credit Robbie Robertson with so much of the films importance due to his indigenous heritage] and it still got ignored. Just a really shocking yet sadly expected decision made by an institution claiming they want to be more inclusive towards minority groups and stories. an institution who, after 96 years, had just nominated the first Native American actress and indigenous composer, yet still found a way to not reward them for their work.
It’s, once more, shocking yet not surprising. In my heart of hearts Lily Gladstone walked away an Oscar winner tonight, as deserved.
