Spider-Man (Noir)

Born in the midst of the Great Depression, Peter Parker was raised with a firm belief of right and wrong under the influence of his social activist Aunt May and Uncle Ben. After they organized a worker's strike against local sweatshop businesses, a group of rich elite hired Norman "The Goblin" Osborn and his freakshow mob to retaliate against the Parker's - resulting Ben's gruesome death and partial cannibalization. Rather than deter the surviving Parkers, this only lit a new fire under their activism and Peter began an apprenticeship as a detective and reporter under The Bugle's Ben Urich. Following one of Urich's tips, Peter became exposed to an antique, cursed Spider Idol - giving him strange, totemic Spider based superpowers including enhanced strength and reflexes. Creating a costume from Ben's old WWI Airmen uniform, Peter took on the identity of The Spider Man to bring Osborn and his criminals to justice.

Peter systematically wiped out The Goblin's operations, eventually discovering that The Vulture was Ben's ultimate killer. When Vulture attempted to kill May in their home, Spider-Man intervened and fatally shot the criminal. Despite saving her life, May was horrified with The Spider's violence and convinced him to swear off using firearms and lethal force altogether. Spider-Man would continue to operate through New York across the years that would follow, including finally ending The Goblin's crime ring and battling a Nazi Doctor Otto Octavius.

When the Inheritor vampire Morlun and his extended family began hunting those empowered by the Web of Life and Destiny across the multiverse, Peter was among those who joined up with the "Spider Army" to survive and fight them. He became known as Spider-Man Noir to help differentiate himself between his many multiversal counterparts. During this time, he began to wield firearms again in spite of his previous promises. During these conflicts, Noir would eventually die, blowing himself up in a failed suicide bomb attack on Morlun. The God within his home reality's Spider Idol resurrected him back in his home dimension shortly thereafter, and while he sent the Idol away with Miles Morales to repair the Web of Life and thus ensured he would never be able to make the same miraculous recovery again, Peter continued to battle crime, inequality and the rise of fascism as The Spider-Man.

Spider-Man Noir (Lizard Series) (2018)
The Noir version of Spider-Man made his debut in the Marvel Legends line during the 26th series under Hasbro's rebooted Infinite Series line, the Lizard Series from 2018, which was largely built around Spider-Man and his universe of comics. Spider-Man Noir is based on the original design for the character seen throughout the Spider-Man: Noir mini-series co-written by David Hine and Fabrice Sapolsky, using the trench-coat clad, World War I uniform themed look designed by artist Carmine Di Giandomenico.

The figure utilizes the same uniformed sculpt as the AIM Trooper and Star-Lord with several newly sculpted pieces to complete an accurate translation of the suit. The figure features new boots, a new belt, a new collar to replicate the turtleneck sweater collar underneath, and a new headsculpt. The figure's trench coat comes from the same mold that debuted with Ultimate Nick Fury, but due to the base body's smaller size and the greater range of motion from the uniformed mold's arms, the figure has far more unrestricted movement than most others wearing the same coat.

In terms of accessories, Spider-Man Noir comes with two pistols - however, neither are accurate to the time period appropriate revolvers used throughout most of his appearances. Instead, the pistols are based on the originally designed "sci-fi blaster" gun that first appeared as one of Forge's weapons. One of the two guns can be stored in the holster on Noir's belt, but the other lacks any storage options.
