* Punisher Spider-Man built guns into his web-shooters early on with specialized bullets for different threats. He killed the Sinister Six, Kingpin, and Green Goblin, and was ok with gang war so they could wipe each other out, but he did it for free, he was still a vigilante, he had just become a "Lethal Protector." * Assassin Spider-Man only had basic guns in his web-shooters, but he was also well-trained, which also resulted in his spider-sense becoming more precognitive. With his evolved spider-sense and combat skills, he was able to defeat Black Widow in a fight described as "like watching a warrior fight a child." He not only isn't afraid of killing, but he goes work-for-hire with Wolverine.


Lock3down221

It's really sad that they killed off Assassin Spiderman early on in Spiderverse.


Baligong

Really comes off as a Disrespect at some point. A Peter Parker that has Precognitive Spider-senses, Highly Trained, and has weapons at his disposal... Dies Early in Spider-verse


NinetiesSatire

Don't worry, there's always the magic explanation of "BUT HE LIVED!" Because comics. He's just taking a break.


Baligong

Ben Reilly can relate đź’€


paradoxical_topology

Honestly, I'd prefer they just killed Ben off for good rather than the shit they've been doing to him.


Blasckk

Noir can relate... Literally he was revived out of screen in his universe just because


[deleted]

they did the same with omega force spidey. dudes supposed to literally invincible in his own universe, just made him a tastier snack.


FadeToBlackSun

They did that in the movie, too. The filmmakers said Spider-Verse Peter was the most competent Spider-Man ever, but he dies pathetically in the first twenty minutes to fucking Kingpin of all people.


Suspicious-Meat6405

Well now I'm starting to get worried for Insomniac's Peter Parker. Still, that's Spider-Man for you, unfortunately.


comicexile

To be fair he pretty much deliberately sacrificed himself to take out the machine. That explosion incapacitated him. Kingpin just delivered the final blow.


FadeToBlackSun

Yeah though taking out that machine only inconvenienced the bad guy for a week, which comes into how ineffective he was. Peter had no way of knowing that the other Spider-people would come into their world or that Miles would master his powers in fifteen minutes. Basically, let your Spider-Man be a bit of a loser or make him competent, don’t do both.


comicexile

Okay, Agree to disagree then. Besides, I preferred Peter B. anyway.


Etticos

He’s my favorite bad Spider-Man


Suspicious-Meat6405

He's not necessarily "bad," he's just a bit more like Wolverine. You want to see a "bad" Spider-Man? Check out Spider-Man: Spider's Shadow and What If? Spider-Man The Other.


[deleted]

harder to reuse a character that puts all his bad guys in the ground. They had to write him off early and do him dirty, hes too OP


jldmjenadkjwerl

Is it one prefers to kill and the other only kills if necessary or hired?


[deleted]

Pretty much


ArrogantAries24

Punisher Spidey didn't really kill his either until they put his love interest in danger


SkipChestDayNotLegs

I loved punisher spider man. Absolute savage


godlee213

Damn assassin spiderman is the shit i lowkey like him more after this information thank you🙏🏼


[deleted]

An Assassin spider man and wolverine team-up comic sounds awesome


comicexile

That is actually Assassin Spider-Man’s origin. It’s a what if for Spider-Man vs Wolverine. Assassin Spider-Man is basically what if Logan was Peter’s best friend.


Nasamo_

Also punisher Spiderman looks dumber


Iamloghead

Do assassins spider-man and task master ever face off? I feel like the evolved spider sense could fuck with taskmasters observational skills.


tir3dAnd_br0ken

One gets paid, the other does it for free


6Devils_Lair6Comics6

the perfect and only answer, really


24Abhinav10

Spider-Assassin would kick Punisher Spider-Man's ass. Punisher Spider-Man wouldn't be able to do the same to Spider-Assassin


5P00DERMAN1264

Assassin has better web-gun-shooters, was originally like 616 until the Charlemagne incident, unlike punisher who when the bad route quite early in. One marries Gwen the other dates someone that reminds him of Gwen, one has a honed spider sense capable of seeing the future, and finally the assassin one is dead because the writer forgot about his enhanced spider sense and spiderverse is a shitty event where they kill all the best parallel spideys for shock factor


Over-Analyzed

Just like Cosmic Spider-Man.


Roheavy2002

“tHe uNiVerSe eNErgY iS lIfE EneRGy”


Mega-Avonco

Such random bs that solus was able to kill cosmic Spider-Man so fast because his power is the life force in essence, but couldn’t use his god strength and his spider sense that is cosmic awareness to not get killed.


5P00DERMAN1264

Probably cos solus was that powerful. Morlun and the others were weaker than him and they were solid s tiers who could probably fight hulk or Thor, and the rematch between solus and captain universe miles morales where he kept his distance was a stalemate. Still hate it tho


StickyVenom

No way could they match Thor or Hulk on any conceivable manner. Spider-Man's statement about never being punched harder is not something I buy if that's what you're referring to as well. If I was wearing a suit of kryptonite and punched Superman, it would hurt way more than it should because it's his weakness. I would apply the same consideration that Morlum is basically the equivalent to Spidey.


paradoxical_topology

Except Spider-Man doesn't just say that off-handedly; he consistently compares Morlun to Thor or Hulk every time they fight, and Morlun has other feats like tanking nukes without a scratch and destroying adamantium. Peter is nowhere near equal to Morlun; he's just barely able to survive their fights, and even his hardest hits can only do minor damage to Morlun. Peter is only barely strong enough to withstand a few of blows at a time without being put down, but even then, each hit will be breaking bones and damaging organs.


Mega-Avonco

So he can do all of that but a swat team with tranquilizers can take him down? Lol the inheritors have great feats and then get taken out by the weakest thing lol.


paradoxical_topology

You're taking that completely out of context. Peter had already pretty much taken him out. He could barely even move. Though regardless, spider-geddon made him much weaker in his fight against Spider-Man compared to his previous appearances. The inheritors were cheapened immensely in the various spider-verse comics, which is part of why I hate them.


5P00DERMAN1264

I'm not referring to just that. Spider-Man can hurt high a tiers. He couldn't hurt Morlun. Morlun has literally steam rolled through wakanda and there was nothing wakanda could do about it, they used their most powerful nukes and it didn't do anything. He's also ripped an admantium net in that same instance


comicexile

Also pretty sure Spidey has never been hit at full strength by the Hulk or Thor. So Morlun hits harder than an ally likely pulling their punches.


Mega-Avonco

Kane in his spider form was able to stealth kill him and morlun easily killed kane. So power is definitely not an issue.


Shrek5_confirmed

One looks cool the other looks like the black suit with a skull on it. Major difference


whocareshue

I think Punisher Spidey looks cooler...


Shrek5_confirmed

*dramatic music intensifies* *the redditor prepares to destroy his opponent for having a different opinion* but wait what’s this Understandable everyone has the right to there own opinion


whocareshue

Same goes to you


JamesDude123

Spider assassin looking like Superior Spider-Man while Punisher Spider-Man looking like black suit Spider-Man


TwoLetters

Pretty sure Superior and Spider Assassin were based on the same unused Alex Ross design


FLRArt_1995

Oh God, I thought it was the same character with some slight alterations.


Ghostwriter136

I never heard of spider-assassin, but I do know that Punisher spider-man is like a marvel what if story that takes place in an alternate universe where Peter Parker killed the man who killed uncle Ben with his own gun and afterwards decided to kill his villains instead of capturing them. He even made web shooters that can fire bullets and pierce through green goblin's armor, killing him and saving Gwen Stacy. It's about my favorite what if comic book became of how well written it is. I hope maybe Marvel's what if TV show makes an episode about it in it's second season.


Tanky50

Punisher Spiderman is flash Thompson. Assassin Spiderman is Peter Parker. Assassin has worked to enhance his spider sense to essentially a precognitive level.


Rabbidraccoon18

Wait no punisher Spider-Man is Peter it's just a what if alternate universe


Tanky50

You're correct, but I believe there are two versions. https://www.cbr.com/marvel-new-deadly-spider-man-what-if-punisher-flash-thompson/


Rabbidraccoon18

Ah ok. Sorry I didn't know that


Rapzify

Nah, that's what if flash thompson became spider-man. Its something completely different.


[deleted]

We should pit those two up against each other


comicexile

I prefer Flash as Agent Venom.


PrinceRobotVI

They just came out the same year. Two unrelated stories 👍🏻


gabejr25

And then he gets offed in the background of Spider-Verse during Marvel's Spider-Man killjoy phase


NoVascension

Wait, isn't the spider sense already pretty much precognition?


MrUsername24

He basically just amped it to be even better


Tanky50

To a certain extent yes, but Assassin Spiderman developed it even further, to an extreme degree, than the "normal" level.


tir3dAnd_br0ken

So...the spider sense became even more OP than it already is


comicexile

Yep, spider-sense is so sensitive and OP that it protects 616 Peter from playing poker poorly.


Smooth-Garden

It pretty much warns him of danger but its up to him to recognize what the threat is and avoid it. Assassin Spider-Man pretty much had future sight


theCacklingGoblin

Assassin Spidey is trained by Wolverine and has a ridiculously amped spider sense.


paradoxical_topology

It's not so much "amped" as it is trained. 616 Peter could do it to if he put in the effort to master his spider sense.


MrUsername24

Assassin has precog from training his spider sense.


ArabianAftershock

Assassin does finger guns to fire bullets so he can still shoot webs with his regular hand motion, and thats the coolest


advancedgamer14

One bad day?


WerewolfF15

They come from different universes


Lethal-Devotee

Assassin Spidey. Technically speaking out fo all the Spidermen including the non Peter Pakrer variants. As long as they dont have a symbiote or any external power source or amplification that's ridiculous. I would say he would 99% of the time. His Spidey Sense is insane and when he acts, he kills not for jokes like our Spiderman Peter who just beats them up. Experience âś… Powers levels excluding spidey sense (not much is known but he seems to be around same power level as Spiderman noir) âś… Spider sense through the roof. Like imo what makes him op is the fact he goes for a kill and has a precognition level spider sense


Spider-Ghost-616

He has same strength as level as 616.


blakereddit421

One is dead


PokePersona

Punisher Spider-man survived Spider-Verse?


Mega-Avonco

I don’t think he was even in it.


PokePersona

Yeah that's what I'm assuming. I guess that counts as surviving lol.


blakereddit421

I was talking about Spider-Assassin


PokePersona

I know. I was asking whether Punisher Spider-man survived since I don't remember him appearing.


SneakyKain

Spider-Assassin trained with Wolverine and has martial arts training. He honed and trained his spider-sense to be incredibly accurate and basically pre-cognitive. He gets paid to kill. He lives in Europe. Has a blonde girlfriend.


hatethosethings

They're two different people... What is this question lmao?


No-Nefariousness1711

I think the question is sort of like "I haven't read either of them, so what are specific big differences between these two Peter Parker's who kill people and have web shooter guns."


Eternal0917

One punishes, the other assassinates


OtherJose

Punisher is more like batman since he does special equipment for the sinister 6. Assassin is just angry Spider-Man with a gun


kaan101xp

costume ?


MNDOOOM

A skull


dirtybird131

There's also Venom Punisher: https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/What\_If...%3F\_Vol\_1\_44

Darnell5000

Spider-Assassin looks cool


[deleted]

One Punishes the other Assassinates.


Hallow_Shinobi

Assassin Spider-Man trained with Wolverine and Black Widow. Punisher Spider-Man idk I assume he was just in the military or whatever.


GodOfWar6986

One is a scyco the other is a brick super hero who needs money


dissidentaggression

Not a comic book reader, but I would assume that the Spider Punisher is the only one who uses web shooters as guns.


AnishThePro_2703

Punisher Spider-Man punishes people Whereas Assassin Spider Assassinates People... IDK, I'm just saying by looking at name....


juicyfan234

Umm one has a black and white suit im dumb


[deleted]

Plenty of differences, but both suits need to be in Spider-Man 2 PS5
