Fan favorite Spider-Punk has a new one Spider-Man Variant appears for his title as a cool tough guy – and he’s into heavy metal. In a new cover by artist Corin Howell, Metal Spider-Man (Spider-Metal?) is wearing ripped clothes, spikes, dripping eyeliner, and has brought two friends along for the ride: Thor, and A very nervous Captain America.
In Marvel’s November solicitations, it was revealed that Captain America #15 will feature the second part of the “The New Warriors Three” story by J. Michael Straczynski and Jesús SaÃz. The story features the epic journey of Thor, Spider-Man and Cop exploring Broxton, Oklahoma to understand what in town is drawing them there. What they find may be too horrifying for even their powers to overcome, and based on this variant cover by Corin Howell, The experience may include dragging Steve Rogers to his first heavy metal show.

Captain America is a man without time, although he tries new experiences to bring him up to speed on modern culture. A heavy metal concert can be a little too overwhelming, even for the super soldier.

After being frozen for a few decades, Cap has a lot of history to learn and things to try. He has some hits and misses in his pop culture catch-up, most notably hating one Brad Pitt movie. But heavy metal doesn’t necessarily seem like something that would jump to the top of his list, and, in the cover art, he looks scared to death. In a subtle character touch, while Spidey and Thor throw up devil horns with their hands, Steve holds out his thumb as he does so – The sign for “I love you” in American Sign Language.
This clearly wasn’t Steve’s idea, meaning either Peter Parker or Thor decided to take their friends out for a wild night. Heavy metal is big in Scandinavia, and they often reference Norse mythology, something Thor is very familiar with. Alternatively, Peter might have wanted to try to be as cool as Spider-Punk and figured his friends would come along for the ride. It’s unclear if the art is in any way part of the story in issue #15, but hopefully it looks like it will be. A great moment of camaraderie Between the three heroes.
The new Spider-Society has a great collection of multi-versal Spider-heroes, and a heavy metal-themed Spider-Man (or Spider-Woman) would be a fun addition to the crew. Although there may be some aesthetic crossover with spider-punk, heavy metal has many of its own looks and traps. They can be more muscular and bulky than other spider-heroes, who are usually a bit more stocky; Think Metalocalypse In spider masks. They may have an extra vocal metal scream voice power, like Aggretsuko. There are always new universes to explore, and Heavy Metal Spider-Man Can be waiting in any of them.
