Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, the new video game by Insomniac Games dedicated to shooting cobwebs, aims to bring many news within its franchise. One of these innovations could concern the general tone of the work which, compared to that of its predecessor, could be darker. To suggest this change of direction was one of the executives of Marvel, who was recently a guest of the well-known podcast This Week in Marvel.
