Spider-Manhas had plenty of games over his decades both on and off the Marvel comic pages. Within these games, players can expect the usual quipping Web-Head, swinging across New York City. However,Spider-Manis sometimes joined by other iconic Marvel heroes, whether that’s featured as a cameo, mention, or a fully-fledged ally.

It’s always great to see other Marvel heroes interact with each other, and over the years, there have been some great Marvel cameos in Spider-Man games. Hopefully,Marvel’s Spider-Man2will feature someexciting and familiar faces, but even if they don’t, at least Spider-Man fans will have these games that do.
11Madame Web (Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions)
Madame Web’s brilliant psychic abilities make her an excellent medium, and a mysterious ally to Spider-Man. Madame Web may know the secret identity of the web-head, but it is safe in her hands, and she uses this hero relationship for the betterment of the city, and inSpider-Man: Shattered Dimensions,different dimensions.
Seeing Madame Web feature in a video game is a great concept, especially when the video game has her traveling through dimensions. Madame Web hasconversed with Spider-Man 2099, Ultimate Spider-Man, Noir Spider-Man, and the Amazing Spider-Man.
10Deadpool (Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions)
Although Deadpool is known for his strained and often violent relationship with Wolverine, Marvel Comics has him closely associated as both afriend and foe to Spider-Man. Deadpool features inSpider-Man: Shattered Dimensionsas an antagonist, receiving his stage in the Ultimate universe, where he will do what he does best: talk. Constantly.
InSpider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, Deadpool has his very own game show called Pain Factor, with a special guest appearance from Spider-Man. However, when Spider-Man sabotages the deadly show, Deadpool decides to come down and remove the intruder himself.
9Juggernaut (Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions)
Cain Marko seems oddly out of place inSpider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, considering that he is a Mutant. Juggernaut is better known for his battles with the X-Men rather than Spider-Man, but that doesn’t stop him from being a major threat to the wall-crawler, especially when he’s holding onto a fragment from the Tablet of Order and Chaos.
Juggernaut storms and crashes his way through the city, leaving it up to Spider-Man to try and retrieve the fragment, and stop the onslaught and rampage of the rageful Juggernaut.Spider-Man’s quipscertainly won’t calm him down, but what does?
8The Avengers…Tower (Marvel’s Spider-Man)
Insomniac Games created a new version of Peter Parker for their universe.Marvel’s Spider-Manwas a brilliant addition to Spider-Man’s legacy, especially when the new wall-crawler is living in the same bustling New York City as the Avengers. It’sgreat to see the Avengers TowerinMarvel’s Spider-Man, even if there is a lack of Marvel heroes throughout the city.

The fact thatMarvel’s Spider-Manhas included the Avengers as canon makes the world feel so much more like a true Marvel universe, and not just one where it’s Spider-Man vs the world. Hopefully,Marvel’s Spider-Man2 will see a few familiar Marvel faces.
7Wolverine (Spider-Man: Web Of Shadows)
Spider-Man and Wolverine always have a strange relationship. For the most part, Wolverine and Spider-Man are good friends, but that doesn’t stop them from insulting each other now and then, with words or fists. As a Symbiote plague takes over New York City inSpider-Man: Web Of Shadows, Wolverine comes toaid the web-head, begrudgingly.
Wolverine has his boss fight, where he is taken over by a Symbiote. It’s a horror-filled sight, seeing Wolverine absorbed into a powerful Symbiote, with his claws even longer and sharper. Spider-Man has two options: fight to save his friend or rip him in half.
6Moon Knight (Spider-Man: Web Of Shadows)
A heroic ally that mostly works for himself, and more importantly, Konshu, Moon Knight can help inSpider-Man: Web Of Shadowsby giving Spider-Man some quests through Act 2 of the game. Moon Knight is an exclusive ally to the heroic Spider-Man, so players best be on their best behavior if they want to interact with Moon Knight, and battle against Kingpin’s Tech soldiers.
Moon Knight is brilliant and often brutal, sometimes encouraging Spider-Man to embrace his brutality and pursue justice through violent means, but he will always have a heroic mindset before anything else. Moon Knight and Spider-Man have had several friendly encounters in Marvel Comics.
5Luke Cage (Spider-Man: Web Of Shadows)
With a heroic alignment inSpider-Man: Web Of Shadows, Luke Cage can be a useful ally and a friend who helps to save Mary Jane against the beginning hordes of the Symbiote invaders. Luke Cage helps Spider-Man against gang members, trying to clean up the city from guns and crime.

Luke Cage is a brilliant and heroic ally and eventeaches Spider-Man some neat new tricksinSpider-Man: Web Of Shadowsthat he can use against the ensuing enemies that will seek to take over New York City.
4The Punisher (Spider-Man 2000)
Frank Castle became the Punisher after the mob murdered his wife and children, and despite his desires for a helpless crusade of vengeance, filled with murder and lead, he can still be a helpful aid to Spider-Man, even if the two disagree on morality and the terms of murder.
The Punisher may not help so much against the enemies of Peter Parker inSpider-Man(2002), but that doesn’t mean he won’t be present to show his hand with a game of poker to celebrate Spider-Man’s victory against thelong night of battling villainsand Monster-Ock.
3Captain America (Spider-Man 2000)
Captain America may have got his start as the First Avenger from World War 2, but due to some complications and being frozen in ice, Captain America has the privilege of playing a game of poker with other iconic Marvel heroes like Spider-Man.
Although Captain America does not have much to do inSpider-Man(2000), his presence is still great to see, and audiences love to see Spider-Man interact with the best Marvel heroes from his decades of adventures in the comics.
2Human Torch (Spider-Man 2000)
Johnny Storm is a member of the Fantastic Four, with the brilliant ability to “Flame On!” which sees him ignite with a powerful set of flames. The Human Torch is not only a great ally, but a great friend to Peter Parker. The two have had a brilliant friendship in the comics and were even roommates at one point.
Players can interact with the Human Torch by standing at the Baxter Building, the iconic headquarters of the Fantastic Four. Alternatively, The Human Torch is another hero that can be seen dancing with Black Cat at the end ofSpider-Man(2000).
