Spider Byte - Tumblr Posts

How people are treating Hobie Brown, and British punks / people as a whole, reeks of classism, privilege and plain ignorance. It's so painfully obvious when somebody who has no clue about punk history, or even the basic idea of poverty in Britain, writes about or speaks about Hobie and his universe.

Let's also discuss the way people immediately assume Hobie is a thief who has no hygiene, and how that's a god damn issue. There is NO mention in the comics or movie of him not washing himself or being a kleptomaniac, not only that, but aren't wicks hard to maintain? It's obvious he doesn't use 3 in 1.

This assumption of Hobie is racism and that much is obvious, but is also rooted in classist beliefs and common stereotypes about punks used to demonise the movement. People also threw around this 'headcanon' in the first movie with Miles, it's a CLEAR pattern.

Don't even get me started on cishet people in this fandom and how heteronormative / homophobic people are in regards to Hobie. 'B-But Hobies universe is the 70's 🥺🥺 he'd hate gay and trans people...👉👈' Do your god damn research?? The punk and LGBTQ+ movements have always been closely intertwined. I have seen a comic panel where Hobie literally kisses Captain Anarchy, but even if that isn't real and was edited, he is still friends with Captain Anarchy, who's a confirmed gay man.

All in all, please, for the love of god, just treat Hobie Brown like you treat Peter Parker. Treat him like the well written character that he is. He's not some racist, classist stereotype you can push your bigoted beliefs onto.

Just wait until I get onto how misogynistic this fandom is toward Spiderbyte and Spidergwen, don't get me started because I will make another post.

All Spider mfs remind me of cats, the way their eyes move, the way they just • • and the way they schoop around y'know

They're all built like string cheese, besides most of the adult ones, and that's so just MWAH of the animators. Even stuff like TSSM and USM have the string cheese cat look, but it's in a way that I just can't explain.

ALSO THE ANIMATORS BASED MILES OFF A BABY DEER THATS SO CUTE OMG??

I can't help but fanboy over funny spider people and their funny stretchy ass limbs and kitty flexibility

did a bunch of margo art over the weekend cuz there’s not just enough art of her 😢

Back Up- Spider verse cast x Reader

@jordanahart wifeyyyy what do ya think??

Spider-Byte. I love her character design!

Currently trying to write a Spider-Verse and TMNT crossover. For the TMNT side, it's mostly gonna be a combination of some of my favorite bits and pieces of different iterations sort of mashed together. Probably mostly the 2003 and Rise versions of the universe are the biggest influence.

Spider-Verse side of things? Three of Gwen's group, specifically Hobie, Peni, and Margo, will have gotten sent careening to the TMNT universe after a multiversal quake happened. I'm thinking as a bit of a joke, Hobie somewhat recognizes Mikey, because back on his Earth, there was show called Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles.

So far of what I have written, the trio of Spider-People have met Michelangelo after he went looking for a flux in time-space above NYC. Agent Bishop would have investigated it himself if not for being busy, and the turtles being closer.

That Spider-Verse and TMNT cross I spoke about a couple posts ago? Yeah, I got two chapters of it finished. Slowly working on the third chapter.

Omg Ghostfloweryuri on twitter did the Spiderband as 6teen characters

I yearn for the earlier versions of ATSV where she was more utilized as a proper character and got more lines than Ben Reilly

Hobie Brown had a plan from the beginning

So a little while ago I saw a post that said that Hobie's biggest weakness was that he quit the Spider Society when he did (I can't find that post so I won't link it). I don't really agree with this.

The thing about Hobie Brown is that he knows the value of community. Obviously, we don't get much back round about his personal life in the movie so I'm going to go off of the Spider Punk mini series.

I'm this run Hobie is homeless. He lives out of a van and a community center in Brooklyn (he's originally a New Yorker) but he's not alone. He lives and/or works with a bunch of friends: Captain Anarchy (Karl Morningdew, E-138's Captain America and a gay native american man), Riothart (Riri Williams, E-138's Ironheart), Mz Marvel (Kamala Khan), Hulk (Robbie Banner), Daredevil (Mattea Murdock, in E-138 she is a blind punk drummer in Philadelphia) and other unnamed characters. So even though they switched up his backstory in the film I still belive that he's not alone in his home universe. Punk culture, anarchy and communism are all about building community and helping others.

Honestly I think thats why he's part of the Spider Society in the first place because he obviously does not agree with anything their doing. He's there because he knows they will recruit vulnerable teenagers who don't have the support that he does. Thats why he takes Gwen and Pavitr under his wings I think (to make it clear Hobie is also a teenager that needs support he's just uniquely positioned to give it in this situation because of his background but he is still very much a teenager.) He also knows that sometimes the best way to take down the system is from inside of it. He's gonna play along till he can take them down.

I think it makes perfect sense that he "quit" when he did. At this point Miles knows Spider Society is really fucked up, he knows his dad is gonna die in two days and he's made it clear that he will not go quietly. Hobie knows all of this and trust Miles to have everything handled. I think that he also knows that when Miles escapes Gwen is going to be disillusioned by the Spider Society and get sent back to E-65.

So he trusts both Miles and Gwen to be able to handle themselves for the moment, but because he knows the value of community when organizing he also knows that they can't do it alone. So he quits (like he always knew he was going to). He knows that the best use of his time and skills right now is to make sure they have everything they need to oppose Spot and Miguel when the time comes. We all know he made at least two watches (he had to have made one for himself as well) but I think that he was also recruiting the rest of the band at the same time.

The only other main spider besides Gwen that we see in the chase scene is Peter. We see Penni that one time during the confrontation scene but not again. I think that he was finding Pavitr, Peni, Noir, and Ham. I think he knew that Gwen would probably go to Peter first. He probably knew when she activated the watch he gave her and brought everyone else to regroup.

But Margo was also in that final shot and Hobie would not have had enough time to recruit her between Gwen being sent back and the final shot. I think they have been working together behind the scenes this whole time. When Miles sends himself back, sure at first she didn't know what was happening, but when she saw Miles in the go home machine she kind of froze. She is looking right at the controls for the machine and there is an option to shut down. She doesn't press it. She could, but she didn't. She even tells Lyla to get out of her way, probably because she doesn't want her to interfere too much. She may have known she was gonna help him escape before that scene even happened. Once that was done she could get out and regroup with Hobie and the rest.

So ya I don't think he's a coward for quitting when he did I think he was really smart. We know he plans and excutes political actions in his home universe. Actions that could defiantly end up with him or others in jail. When planning things like that you need to be smart about it, often times for particularly dangerous things no one has all the information till the very end, of course he'd keep it a secrete. Even from Gwen because she's still not ready. He's not a coward he just knew how to best utilize his and everyone else's skills. He knows when he needs to be in the background as opposed to the front line.

So I remember watching across the spider -verse when it first released and I can’t help but think….

god Gwen and Peter b we’re so fake 😟Like while I criticize the spider society so much for not helping a kid who obviously needs help I can MAYBE see from their perspective but Gwen and Peter b’s actions I cannot understand.Like Gwen went out of her way to see miles but didn’t tell him shit before it was to late.Peter is now a dad and I just can’t understand how he didn’t help miles like he wouldn’t want mayday to grow up w/ out him.Hobie and spider-byte helping him just makes me sad tbh.Like they have know miles what for like a few minutes ???But they still help which makes me respect them sm ‼️

anyways just my thoughts 🤷‍♀️
