Reintroducing The Striking Spider-Man

Reintroducing The Striking Spider-Man

I started working on his look a few weeks ago and didn't really like the way it came out. This piece though just felt right in every way. I'm really close to finishing the first Arc of his series that ill post on AO3 when its done.

I've been lurking this sub for awhile now and spent most of that time writing lore for my Sona instead of drawing him. FINALLY got around to making him. Will continue to draw and update his design.

This is Christopher Conners, aka The Striking Spider-Man from Earth-8193.

His father is Dr Curtis Conners & his late mother was Martha Murdock. Christopher was an amateur boxer in Hell’s Kitchen until he was bitten by an escaped radioactive Spider from Oscorp Tower. After gaining powers he created a suit inspired by his mothers old boxing gear.

He lives in an apartment with his cousin, Matthew Murdock, above 'Jacks Gym', a local boxing school owned by Christopher's uncle Jack Murdock. He spends his days working as the gyms Janitor.

Right now I'm writing his (Year One) story line where he faces villains like...

-His father, who becomes the Lizard using a formula based off Christopher's blood.

-The Shocker, a man who uses his powers to cheat his way to the top of the boxing rankings that Christopher challenges to a boxing match as Spider-Man.

-Norman Osborn, who created the Spider as part of an experimentally cure for his son who has contracted a mysterious disease that's slowly killing him. Believing Spider-Man is the only surviving test subject from his experiments, he uses the failed experiments to create animal/human hybrids he sends to capture Spider-Man he names his 'Sinister Six'.

Ive got SO much lore and plans for him, his villains, and his adventures. I'm working on the first volume of his series that I'm planing to post to AO3.
