10 Amazing Easter Eggs To Look Out For In Spider-Man: Homecoming

At last, Spider-Man is back where he belongs - standing among his fellow Marvel heroes as part of the MCU. As the mega-positive reviews suggest, Spider-Man: Homecoming is perhaps the most faithful rendition of the friendly neighborhood wallcrawler we've had on the big screen yet, and we couldn't be happier about it.

10) The Vulture’s Arsenal

In contrast to the, let’s be honest, fairly lacking original comic book version of the Vulture, Homecoming‘s take on Adrian Toomes is a clever play on his supervillain name. Like a real vulture, Toomes is a scavenger who pinches alien or advanced technology leftover from Avengers incidents. Which obviously leads to lots of nods to past Marvel movies.

The most obvious one occurs at the beginning of the film, when Toomes is clearing up after the Chitauri invasion of New York in The Avengers. This first haul of tech is what starts him on his mission. Later on, we see him wielding a gun taken from one of Ultron’s drones. A head of one of these robots is also seen at one point.

Another bit of familiar tech that’s mentioned are black hole grenades. Fans of Thor: The Dark World (if there are any) will know that these were used by Malekith and his Dark Elves during their attack on London during that movie’s climax.
