10 Marvel Heroes Who Started Life as Rejected Spider-Man Costumes

While Spider-Man's red and blue suit is one of the most iconic in superhero media, Peter Parker has also experienced his fair share of radical redesigns. From Tony Stark's Iron Spider suit to his black symbiote costume, Spider-Man has had some amazing alternate looks, though he always returns to the old classic eventually. But what happens to these other costumes when Spider-Man is done with them? It turns out, they're often claimed by other heroes.

Three genetically perfect humans programmed with the muscle memory of Spider-Man, the clones were given Tony Stark's Iron Spider suits - abandoned by Spider-Man when he defected to Captain America's team during Civil War. The triplets worked in tandem as Red Team - introduced in Dan Slott and Stefano Caselli's Avengers: The Initiative #3 - but two were eventually killed in the line of duty.

8 Ricochet Another result of 'Identity Crisis,' Peter designed the Ricochet costume to play in favor of his agility, debuting the costume in Tom DeFalco and Joe Bennett's Amazing Spider-Man #434. Not only does the costume offer maximum maneuverability, but it also comes with disc-shaped weapons which can be bounced off surfaces and fitted with additional features, such as EMP blasts.

6 Hornet The last of the Slingers, the Hornet persona allowed Spider-Man to utilize his technological genius with an armored suit - albeit one so heavy, he could only wear it because of his spider-strength.

3 Venom Not just a rejected costume of Spider-Man, but the ultimate example of the 'evil costume' trope that has plagued a host of superheroes, from Flash to Iron Man, Venom is an alien being who was initially mistaken for a synthetic costume. Officially debuting during the Secret Wars event, Spider-Man believed he was using a machine to generate clothing that other heroes had mentioned, but accidentally released Venom from imprisonment.
