Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ Just Dropped the First Major ‘Avengers: Secret Wars’ Clue
Spider-Man: Brand New Day reportedly includes a post-credits scene that appears to point towards Peter Parker’s next MCU appearance being in Avengers: Secret Wars. The scene tracks Spider-Man from New York into space to an unidentified planet, suggesting the character could be drawn into the film’s wider multiversal storyline.
The article argues that Secret Wars could introduce Spider-Man’s black alien symbiote costume, potentially laying the groundwork for Venom. In the original 1984 Secret Wars comic, Spider-Man acquires the suit before discovering it is a symbiote, which later bonds with Eddie Brock; the forthcoming film is expected to draw more heavily from Marvel’s 2015 Secret Wars series.
In short
- Post-credits scene hints Spider-Man may return in Avengers: Secret Wars.
- A mysterious planet could signal a larger cosmic storyline.
- The film may set up Spider-Man’s black suit and Venom.
Explained simply
Spider-Man is Peter Parker, a superhero in Marvel’s films, which share a connected setting known as the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). His story has crossed paths with other heroes, including the Avengers, a group who face threats too large for one hero alone.
Avengers: Secret Wars is an upcoming film whose title refers to major Marvel comic-book stories involving characters and worlds brought together. In the 1984 comic, Spider-Man gets a black suit that turns out to be an alien symbiote; a later symbiote bonds with Eddie Brock, creating the character Venom.
The symbiote story links Spider-Man to Venom and could be relevant if the film uses elements from the comics. The 2015 Secret Wars comic also provides source material for the film, though how closely the film will follow either comic story is not established.
