Different films take different elements of these early stories, tweaking them as they go along, but you can… roughly… chart a course through each variation of Spider-Man that more or less walks the steps laid out by this original comic incarnation.įor instance, Peter Parker was in love with Gwen Stacey before he fell for MJ, and so Andrew Garfield’s films, by that metric, come first. It’s here where the classic arc was born – bitten by the radioactive spider, sees his beloved uncle Ben die, falls for Mary Jane, and so on. There’s the ‘Ultimate’ universe Spider-Man, multiple different Earth versions (Earth-9500, Earth-982, etc etc), and the Earth-616 universe where he first appeared from the minds of creators Stan Lee and Steve Ditko.Įarth-616 then is kind of seen as the ‘core’ Spider-Man experience that many of the films ultimately draw their inspiration from. Just as Spider-Man has existed in multiple forms on screen, so too has he in the Marvel comics he came from. OK, now we’re really getting into the nitty gritty of things, and where some comic book nerdery comes into play.

You could argue you should watch all the MCU Marvel movies in order for the full experience, but we’ll leave that for another day. So to get the full picture of how Tom Holland’s Spider-Man has grown into the hero we now know and love, you’ve got to watch at least a few more MCU films, too. Tom Holland’s Spider-Man films pour into this mixture and, thanks to the events of No Way Home, have ultimately drawn the Maguire and Garfield Spider-Men into this overarching MCU storyline, too. Modern Marvel movies, aka the Marvel Cinematic Universe, aka the MCU, are in part so successful and popular because they weave multiple characters together to create a much larger overall story.
