A new promo video for Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse introduces Spider-Ham’s own theme song.
Spider-Ham, aka Peter Porker, is just one of the many spider-heroes who are featured in the upcoming animated film. Voiced by comedian John Mulaney, Spider-Ham comes from a world that’s even more cartoonish than the others, where every Marvel hero is an anthropomorphic animal. First appearing in 1980, Spider-Ham has risen in prominence in recent years, appearing regularly in comics such as Spider-Verse and Web Warriors.

In a newly released promo for the film, it turns out that Spider-Ham even has his own variant of the classic 60s Spider-Man theme. The song doesn’t shy away from the fact that it’s a bit weird he’s a pig fighting crime, but still argues that he’s a hero all the same. The video also highlights his wackier animation and fighting style, where he incorporates a giant mallet into his battle with the Scorpion.
