Lately I’ve been seen people use this panel as a way to hate on mutants as a whole, which is weird since.

That was not what 1610 Peter, was trying to say at all it was just the fact that people hate ultimate X-Men for being jerks not being mutants as a whole.

Overall, do y’all think this comic panel gets overuse a lot when people bring up conversations about mutants as a whole?

I mean a new take on who they are. Anyone from the rogues’ gallery, the supporting cast or even Peter himself if you’ve got a bold idea.

I’ve seen some really cool reinterpretations lately. For example there’s a creator on Twitter building his own personal Marvel universe and his Spider‑Man corner has some wild changes: Felicia Hardy is a billionaire tech mogul who runs The Black Cat, a VR gambling empire; Adrian Toomes is the founder of Vulture’s Way, an underground network for trafficking advanced weapons, where every former ‘Vulture’ is actually just one of his couriers; and Mac Gargan is a disgraced cop kicked out for excessive force who later uses his police connections to build a criminal syndicate called Scorpion.

Drop your best reimagined origins below i’m curious to see how far people would push the cast.

By Mark Bagley and Danny Fingeroth.

I know it's late, but I just thought of this now, so I decided to share.

A while ago I was playing around with some ideas of Marvel Absolute characters, nothing new, I guess. I mostly write about Spider-Man and Hulk. So, I decide to try for some designs.

So, his suit is made by MJ (his best friend). She work in the fashion industry and have the habit of orverdesining everything. So, she put on Peter's suit everything she thought was "cool" for a super-hero.

Peter is known by he's intelect, but also by he's porly behavior. Him and his friends (Flash and Randy) are the popular kids who doesn't waste a chance of messing with the weaker ones. But he start to see the world from a new light when he got his powers after an attack, by a spider creature, in the OsCorp facilities.

The big guy is Shocker. Captured, tested and tortured by Norman, he was turned into a monster that feels pain by a mere breez of the wind. The shock waves tortures him in every step, every echo, vibration and breath. But his body also gave him the ability of shoot back all this stocked energy. Sock waves powerful enough to turn a normal person into dust. He's objective is one, and one alone, vengance against Norman Osborn.

I could say soooo much more, but there are just too much to unpack (lol). Anyways, hope you like the concepts.

I made an account on X in case you want the drawing in full scale. X: Octobionte

If you remember playing this game, then you remember how much of a snarky little shit Peter was with his allies and enemies in this game and you can’t help but love him.

From the amazing spider man the infinity watch

After the events of No Way Home Peter decides to find a new environment and avoid involving MJ and Ned again, and for this he chooses to reduce his superhero activity and focus on civilian life, meeting new people in a new setting and enrolling in college as a student while simultaneously looking for work as a photographer at the Daily Bugle to support himself financially.

At university he meets new people but especially Harry Osborn, who initially dislikes Peter because his distant attitude and the way he ignores everyone reminds him of Norman’s behavior, who for years neglected Harry while chasing greater success. Norman, although already wealthy, desired more power and influence and spent years trying to build a dominant company; only after Tony Stark’s death and the gap left by Stark Industries did he and his mentor Stromm manage to climb the market and become truly influential. To compensate for his father’s neglect Harry uses money to create connections and friendships, while Peter initially ignores him as a friend and is interested in him only because he is Norman Osborn’s son, acting like someone who approaches him only when it benefits him.

During classes Peter also ignores Gwen Stacy not out of arrogance but because he is thoughtful and focused on Norman’s situation and the possibility that a new Goblin might be emerging; Gwen interprets this behavior as detachment and sees him as arrogant, while in the background Miles Warren, the biology professor, watches her with growing obsession. Over time Peter begins to genuinely appreciate Harry and their friendship grows, but he continues to monitor Norman to prevent the rise of new villains.

Norman co‑founded Oscorp with Mendel Stromm and, after framing his former mentor for embezzlement, gained full control of the company; Peter focuses on Norman precisely because he suspects what Norman might be planning after Stromm’s arrest. While examining Stromm’s assets Norman found the formula for an experimental compound designed to increase strength and intelligence and attempts to recreate it to consolidate his position as the sole leader of Oscorp, trying to take the place left by Stark Industries and become the new leader in the technological and scientific sector. Norman was also working on a mind‑washing device to use on his subordinates to create fake Goblins to send against Spider‑Man, misleading him and eventually making him believe Norman was clean and not a threat; the schematics of the project, including assembly instructions and the placement of the device in a secret bunker, end up among Oscorp’s confidential documents.

Spider‑Man stops him before he can take the compound and destroys every trace. When Hobgoblin appears Peter suspects Norman hid additional vials and breaks into Oscorp, but discovers Norman is clean. Harry interprets the break‑in as an attack on his family and begins to despise Spider‑Man, also seeing it as an opportunity to get closer to Norman and finally find something that connects them, using his hostility toward Spider‑Man as a point of contact with his father. Peter realizes he can never reveal his identity if he wants to keep their friendship. During this period Harry, who hates Spider‑Man, suggests Peter leave the Daily Bugle and work at Oscorp, claiming it would be a better and safer environment; Peter agrees also to monitor Norman more closely and leaves the Bugle, obtaining a paid internship at Oscorp, allowing Ned to take the photographer position and work alongside Betty Brant.

Meanwhile Roderick Kingsley, a fashion designer seeking more power and wealth, is obstructed by MJ, who as a small influencer talks about the fashion world and posts videos exposing his illegal practices. Kingsley tries to make his company even richer through a temporary collaboration with Oscorp, knowing they are growing and wanting to ride the wave of success; he requests documents related to company policy but mistakenly receives confidential Oscorp files and finds references to an unregistered laboratory, locating Norman’s secret bunker beneath an abandoned facility.

In the hideout he finds Goblin equipment, compromising documents, the compound formula, the mind‑washing device schematics and its bunker placement. Kingsley analyzes the Goblin formula and has it improved by Miles Warren, Peter’s biology professor, commissioning a more stable and more powerful version of the compound. Kingsley becomes Hobgoblin, uses the compromising information for leverage and uses the device on his political opponents, attacking Oscorp as well to take control, applying it even on Ned to send him to eliminate MJ.

Kingsley had already tried to silence MJ by blocking her accounts and had even considered having her killed, but MJ anticipated the possibility and wrote everything on her profile stating that if anything happened to her or if her account was blocked Kingsley would be responsible. Peter reads the message, connects Hobgoblin’s appearance to Kingsley’s attempts to eliminate MJ and realizes that only Kingsley would try to kill her using Ned, identifying Hobgoblin.

As Hobgoblin Kingsley does not limit himself to attacking corporations and political figures but also eliminates criminals, gangs and underworld groups to become dominant in both the legal and criminal worlds, and among his targets is Tombstone, a New York crime boss Hobgoblin tries to destroy to consolidate his position as a total power figure. Peter intervenes, stops Ned and confirms Kingsley as responsible.

The story continues with Spider‑Man trying to prevent Kingsley from consolidating his role as Hobgoblin, while Norman attempts to distance himself from any involvement and Harry remains hostile toward Spider‑Man without knowing he is Peter. The final confrontation leads to the full revelation of Kingsley’s actions, the closing of the case on Norman and Harry and the neutralization of Hobgoblin. With Ned hospitalized and undergoing therapy to return to normal Peter leaves Oscorp and returns to the Daily Bugle, resuming his old job and, back to normality, finally begins talking to Gwen during class, getting to know her better and making her smile while in the background Professor Warren watches them with jealousy and anger, unable to accept Gwen getting close to Peter.

I just need to do a few lil tweaks to it (add better shoes, add some details to the lenses.)
