Links from the discussion…

Peter Parker usually goes it alone but has teamed up with the Avengers and the Fantastic Four at times. He’s the best superhero of all time.

Aunt May took in Peter after the death of his parents and raised him. She eventually learned he is Spider-Man.

The Vulture of the comics invented an electromagnetic harness that one could wear to fly and also increased the wearer’s strength. They improved on his costume quite a bit in Spider-Man: Homecoming.

The Shocker in the comics teamed up with Doctor Octopus to take on the Avengers, and once fought alongside the Guardians of the Galaxy against aliens.

Aaron Davis isn't the original Prowler, but he's the most recent and has a direct connection to Miles Morales.

The Tinkerer makes tons of tech for Marvel villilains, just like in the movie.

The only hint is a scorpion tattoo on his neck, but the Scorpion did make it into his first Marvel movie.

Michelle is great in the movie, but she's not the MJ from the comics, nor does she have any relation to Mary Jane Watson.
