Spider-Man is So Hated in Marvel’s Universe Even His Variants Suffer
Despite his popularity among Marvel fans, Spider-Man doesn’t get very much respect in his own universe – and neither do his multiverse variants.

When it comes to the most hated heroes, Spider-Man is near the top of the list in the Marvel Universe. In fact, in Spider-Ham: Great Power, No Responsibility, the titular hero has a similar problem. Neither manages to get very much respect from their communities – or their fellow heroes.
Spider-Ham debuted in 1983, thanks to the creative team of Larry Hama, Tom DeFalco, and Mark Armstrong. Although he isn’t as old as his original counterpart, who debuted in 1962, he gets about the same treatment from the heroes of his respective universe. The porcine webslinger lives on Earth-8311 and while he IS a hero, Spider-Ham is one of the most bumbling there is – and everyone knows it.
Spider-Ham: Great Power, No Responsibility (2021) is a graphic novel for young readers that has the creative team of Steve Foxe, Shadia Amin, and Rae Crawford. It released in September and features Spider-Ham receiving the key to the city during the mayor’s re-election campaign – just before he loses it and has to spend the rest of his time searching for it. Despite his involvement in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, this Spider-Man variant can’t catch a break, and he never seems to learn any better. While Peter Parker has the best intentions combined with terrible luck, Spider-Ham is an adorable mess who knows how to make an even bigger mess.
When he shows up for the ceremony, the mayor of New Yolk City introduces Spider-Ham. However, he precedes it with a speech that implies he would much rather have a different hero present. For example, Captain Americat and the Scavengers, the Earth-8311 variants of Captain America and the Avengers. He also claims to have contacted many other heroes before having to settle for Spider-Ham. This hero isn’t just disliked; he is publicly disrespected by city officials – not just local media. Yet even when Spider-Ham goes to talk to the Avengers’ variants, they largely dismiss him, revealing just how highly they think of their teammate.
Marvel’s multiverse is full of variants of recognizable heroes and villains. In some cases, these variants are rather different from their predecessor. This includes Gwen Stacy, who goes from being a love interest with a tragic story, to being a hero under the mantle of Ghost Spider (better known to fans as Spider-Gwen). Peter Parker’s variants, unfortunately, get to not only deal with the same day-to-day problems, they also get to suffer from being unappreciated, not taken seriously, and largely disrespected.
The inability to balance his life is one of the most relatable conflicts Spider-Man faces, yet it definitely makes his in-comic existence an extra tough one. He is also bad at communicating, but Spider-Ham takes it to the next level, failing to notice the disdain and annoyance he draws from the people he interacts with. The worst part? Even Peter Parker himself will question whether or not he wants to be in contact with his own variant after a brief talk resulting in a disaster of multiversal proportions. Spider-Man may be one of Marvel’s most popular heroes among fans, but his variant Spider-Ham proves just how deep disdain for him runs within the comics universe.
