Description: MARVEL COMICS Marvel Cinematic Universe MCU Speculative First Appearance Key SPIDER-MAN 4 (2026) AVENGERS: SECRET WARS (2027) First Appearance: Spider-Man's Alien Black Suit / Venom SymbioteOrigin: Symbiote (Venom) Marvel Comics' Marvel Super-Heroes Secret Wars and DC Comics' Crisis on Infinite Earths were two of the most significant comics publications of the 1980's for one reason above all: they were the very first crossover stories or line-wide crossover events ever published. They were experiments in story-telling and marketing, and they were successful. Not only have the two series served as blueprints for every crossover published since, their influence on storytelling has become just as evident in film. If not for MSH Secret Wars and Crisis, neither the Marvel Cinematic Universe nor the cinematic DC Universe would even exist. Incredibly important publications, through their stories, likely give rise to incredibly important moments or developments for the characters they feature. For Marvel Super-Heroes Secret Wars, the character was SPIDER-MAN, and the important development was a brand-new costume for the character -- Spider-Man's very first new costume since his introduction in the early 1960's. This was history in the making, and the FIRST APPEARANCE OF THE BLACK SUIT (in continuity) was jaw-dropping, rocking comics fandom like a 9.0 SoCal earthquake. That Spider-Man's new black costume would have its own story so creatively expanded by creator Todd McFarlane, who in 1989 would redefine the black suit to be not a costume, but a sentient alien symbiote (named VENOM), was brilliant and surprising and truly just icing on the cake. Taken together, the idea of the costume and McFarlane's idea of Venom come together into one creation of sheer genius. Going into Marvel Studios' upcoming 2027 Avengers film, Avengers: Secret Wars, there is absolutely ZERO doubt that the most popular actor to ever portray Spider-Man on film -- Tom Holland -- will not receive his very own alien symbiotic black suit in the blockbuster finale to the MCU's Multiverse Saga. While much of Avengers; Secret Wars will be informed by the 2015 Secret Wars series, Spider-Man's "black suit moment" will not be an opportunity missed. Indeed, while the goal of Avengers: Secret Wars is to effectively re-shape the Marvel Multiverse, Spider-Man's new threads will undoubtedly be its most important moment.
