MCU's Peter Parker might be going on a Euro vacay with his pals post-Snapture, but Spider-Man as a cultural icon never rests. In the past year, there have been three — count 'em, three — Spider-Man movies: Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, Avengers: Endgame, and Spider-Man: Far From Home. Over the last few decades, Marvel has given us four different live-action Peter Parkers: Nicholas Hammond, Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield, and, of course, Tom Holland. Plus, there seems to be a new Spider-Man swinging into the world of animated series every generation. Suffice to say, the scrappy superhero will never not be a part of the pop culture zeitgeist. If you want a breakdown of the most well-known Spider-Man portrayals, you won't have to rely on spidey senses alone. Here, we've gathered all of the actors who have brought us the most iconic iterations of the web-slinging superhero, from Paul Soles's take in the very first animated Spider-Man series to Shameik Moore's beloved Miles Morales in Into the Spider-Verse.

Paul Soles
Canadian actor Paul Soles lent his voice to the first animated version of Spider-Man in the 1967 series, giving Peter Parker a deeper and huskier sound than most Marvel fans may typically associate with the character. And, yes, this one's the origin of the pointing meme that you've seen before.

Shameik Moore
Shameik Moore voiced Miles Morales in the critically acclaimed Into the Spider-Verse, which revolves around the first black-Latino Spider-Man. Into the Spider-Verse is special because it features not one but seven Spider characters, so we also need to give a shout-out to Nicolas Cage, Hailee Steinfeld, Kimiko Glenn, Chris Pine, John Mulaney, and, of course, Jake Johnson for playing Miles's cadre of superhero pals with arachnid reflexes.
