Notes[]
- No Ben Cooper copyrights from the 1950s were renewed.
- The Spider Man costume has been rumored to be an inspiration for - or in some cases the plagarised origin of - Marvel's Spider-Man. Note that the costume is just that, a costume, and is not explicitly stated to possess any powers or backstory associated with Spider-Man.
- When Marvel's Spider-Man gained popularity, Ben Cooper became the first company to make licensed Marvel merchandise.
- A background character in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse strongly resembles Ben Cooper's Spider Man.
