SpiderHam

Spider-Ham, also known as Peter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Ham, is a fictional anthropomorphic pig superhero appearing in Marvel Comics. He is an alternate-universe counterpart of Spider-Man, living in a world populated by talking animals. The character is presented as a humorous, cartoony parody of the Spider-Man mythos.

Introduced in the 1980s, Spider-Ham has appeared in his own limited series and various crossovers, reflecting Marvel's experimentation with multiverse storytelling. In his fiction, Peter Porker becomes the hero after gaining spider-like powers, joining a cast of animal-based heroes and villains in lighthearted adventures.

Powers and abilities mirror those of Spider-Man: wall-crawling, enhanced strength, agility, and a heightened danger sense, along with the ability to project webbing. The portrayal emphasizes slapstick humor and puns, distinguishing Spider-Ham from his more serious counterparts.

Across media, Spider-Ham gained renewed prominence in animation. In 2018's Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, the character is voiced by John Mulaney and appears alongside other Spider-People from alternate universes, including in the sequel Across the Spider-Verse (2023).

Spider-Ham is frequently cited as a fan favorite for its playful approach to a long-running franchise and as an example of Marvel's multiverse approach to storytelling.
