Spider-Man's Stealth Suit

History

Spider-Man (Peter Parker) created this suit to combat the Hobgoblin's sonic screams; the suit warps light and sound around it, rendering it invisible.^[1]

It was later used by Kaine, to defeat Spider-Queen. The costume's new color was a consequence of the suit being locked in that design, which was made on purpose by Madame Web, who wanted it changed for what the Scarlet Spider meant in Kaine's past.^[2][3]

Originally Kaine could not make the suit change colors until he thought hard enough to change it back to its original colors.^[4]

During his time in Spider-Man's body, Doctor Octopus created a second stealth suit with the original look. When Spidey returned, the suit became one of his possessions,^[5] and was put into storage alongside Spider-Man (Miguel O'Hara's) new suit, a replica of the Iron Spider Armor, and his Future Foundation suit.^[6]

After the death of the Spider-Man of Earth-94, Kaine gave into The Other and inadvertently ripped his suit to shreds.^[7] It was later found by the Black Widow of Earth-1610.^[5]

When the Master Weaver found Kaine alive, he crafted a new suit for him.^[8] Peter's version was used by Clayton Cole when the Ghost attacked Parker Industries.^[9] To combat Itsy Bitsy, Parker created a fourth variant of the Spidey stealth suit.^[10]

Capabilities

• Omni-harmonic mesh provides cloaking and sound canceling abilities.
• Comes equipped with anti-metal Spider-Tracers.

• The suit is fireproof due to being made of Unstable Molecules.^[11]
