The Avengers are Earth’s Mightiest Heroes in the Marvel Universe, and their ranks are usually comprised of major Marvel characters. In the past few decades, this has included the likes of Spider-Man, perhaps the company’s biggest character since his debut in the Silver Age of Comics. While this seems like an obvious development, the two properties aren’t as great of a fit as some fans might think.
Spider-Man has been independent of – and far more popular than – the Avengers for most of his history. On the other hand, the Avengers only truly earned their supposed prominence in the early 2000s, ironically around the time that Spidey and Wolverine joined the team. There’s also the fact that the friendly neighborhood hero connects with readers in ways that most of the Avengers don’t, cementing the idea that he’s the hero who best represents the Marvel Universe.
His growing popularity in the Bronze Age and the Modern Age of Comics allowed Spider-Man to have multiple monthly comic books. These included the main title, The Amazing Spider-Man, as well as Spectacular Spider-Man, “adjectiveless” Spider-Man, and spinoffs for characters such as the Scarlet Spider and even former villains such as Venom. Due to the ubiquitous nature of the “Spider-Verse” concept, he’s interacted more and more with similar heroes.
