Spider-Man: Noir is a four-issue miniseries which reboots the Wall Crawler into the genres of film noir and pulp fiction. It is set in New York during the Great Depression.
This series provides examples of:[]
- Badass Longcoat: As part of Spidey's costume.
- Big Bad: Norman Osborn.
- Circus of Fear: Norman Osborn recruited his inner circle from the circus, from which he himself is a refugee.
- Darker and Edgier
- Guns Akimbo: Hammerhead in Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions.
- I'm a Humanitarian: The Vulture.
- Likes Older Women: Peter himself, being in love with the thirtysomething Felicia Hardy.
- Nice Hat: An occasional part of the Noir Spidey costume - he only wears it a couple times.
- Superhero Packing Heat
- Wall Crawl: In the comics, this is notably absent from Spidey's power set, though he can do it in Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions.
- Justified, as the in-game manual and the IGN review both state that Spidey Noir can only wall-crawl at all (that rhymes!) because Madame Web granted him those powers for use in the game. She probably took them away after they defeated Mysterio.
