History

I don't want those weapons in this neighborhood either. I got a nephew living out here.

-- Aaron Davis to Spider-Man ^src

Aaron Davis was embroiled in a black market arms deal purchasing hybrid tech weapons from Herman Schultz and Jackson Brice when the meeting was interrupted by Spider-Man. Spider-Man later tracked down Davis to gain information on where he could find the supplier, Adrian Toomes, and his gang.^[1]

Notes

Donald Glover portrays Aaron Davis in the film Spider-Man: Homecoming. He was the original inspiration for Miles Morales.^[2] The role of Aaron Davis was made specifically for Glover in recognition for his influence in the creation of Miles Morales. Director Jon Watts admitted to Glover that if he didn't play Davis, the character would've been scrapped from the movie entirely.^[3]

Trivia

Davis' alias of "Brian Pichelli" is a reference to the character's creators, Brian Michael Bendis and Sara Pichelli.
Aaron Davis was considered to make a small appearance at the beginning of Spider-Man: Far From Home. The idea was scrapped to move the plot away from New York as soon as possible.^[4]
