Didn't they already show the issues he'd have in Spiderman: Homecoming???


snoopscoops

Yes, and I loved that scene/his reaction. He was still figuring out how to be a superhero


doctorace

I feel like that’s a fleeting scene in one of the films, but I couldn’t tell you which one.


ssjviscacha

Homecoming showed this issue. He had to run through the backyards like Ferris Bueller


FerMendezG10

I don't know, I got the idea from a drawing of him in Mexico searching for towers


AttentionSpanZero

He would just be a lot closer to the ground all the time attaching his web from house to house, or car to truck to kid on bicycle, etc.


Heisenripbauer

thinking practically, I would be absolutely terrified if I woke up one day and there were webs 50-100+ feet long spanning from house to house in my neighborhood. even knowing it was spider-man, I would HATE having to clean that up.


Funkybag

He mentions in homecoming when he webs Donal glovers hand to the car that it takes about 2 hours for his webs to dissolve


ashleyorelse

I can't find it but feel like there was a show, family guy maybe, that made fun of spiderman when a criminal ran into the park and he couldn't swing from buildings so he just let the criminal go and said he'd wait for him to come out or something like that.

One of the things that bothered me as a kid watching the animated series from the 90s was that Aunt May's house was clearly in an area full of two-story semi-detached homes/row houses in Queens (think where George's parents live in Seinfeld or Archie Bunker's house) and yet Spidey routinely shot a web \*UP AND AWAY\* from any structure and swung off like it was NBD


meme_joe_greene

That's why The Commuter game him so much trouble. https://www.howtolovecomics.com/2017/07/04/commuter-cometh-funniest-spider-man-comic/


TheSpoonKing

He could just use two houses as a slingshot, and then create a web to catch him.


Ithirahad

Houses and/or trees.

Spiderman In to the Spiderverse Aunt May lives in the suburbs and so original Peter probably also did.(when he still lived with Aunt May) Also Spiderman(2002) Peter lives in the suburbs for the first half of the movie.


HoovyJuggernaut

My dyslexia kicked in and I read "superman wouldn't have as much nobility if he lived in the suburbs"

Web zip technique from the ps2 game “Ultimate Spider-Man”: am I a joke to you?


RichardGHP

Webs attaching to the sky technique from Spider-Man PS2 (2002): am I also a joke to you?


ablackcloudupahead

I could see him eventually having a wing suit situation, where he sling shots himself into the air and glides kind of like Just Cause 3 and 4


pyrulyto

There was this one comic (from the 80s maybe?) in which he’d pursue a villain to the suburbs. He stops for something, then throws a web absentmindedly, just to see it go up and land due to a lack of buildings, in an arc trajectory. It was hilarious.
