Spider-Punk's Powers And Abilities In The Marvel Universe Explained

Depressingly, Spider-Punk's powers are exactly the same as the standard, vanilla Spider-Man. That is to say, Spider-Punk has the "proportional strength, speed, agility, endurance, and reflexes of a spider," along with the tried and true Spider-Sense ability, which allows him to respond to danger more effectively. According to his Comic Vine biography, it has yet to be confirmed by Marvel as to whether his webbing is organic, like Tobey Maguire's in the early 2000s films, or mechanical, like literally every other Spider-Person's ... and if Marvel isn't sure, who's supposed to have a concrete answer in their stead?

What makes Spider-Punk's powers unique is that he actually uses them. Unlike Peter Parker, who notably holds back when fighting because the only other option is to murder everything he touches (that's only a mild exaggeration), Hobart Brown aggressively solves his problems. On his Earth, he's an anarchist rebelling against a fascist, corporate America, which is essentially the justification for the hard rock-themed universe, by the way. He literally bashes the president's head in. It was Norman Osbourne, so no one really minded, but STILL. 

Spider-Punk also uses weapons like his guitar and the metallic spikes on his cowl to commit (what we are going to gently refer to as) effective closing arguments. Also, he's in a band, because of course he is.
