So who is Webweaver on The Boys? What about the comic book source material? And who is Dan Mousseau, the actor who plays him? Browse on for all that info, and more. Not much more, though.
Who Is Webweaver On The Boys?
The first we heard about the Supe was in a chyron (the tiny writing at the bottom of the screen) in &#;Department of Dirty Tricks,&#; where we discovered the Supe had been released from a Global Wellness Center. Then in &#;We&#;ll Keep The Red Flag Flying Here,&#; when Ryan (Cameron Crovetti) is playing Vought&#;s Tournament of Heroes game, Webweaver is seen as a playable character on screen.

Summary
- The Boys' Webweaver is a dark parody of Spider-Man, taking pointed jabs at the Marvel and Disney icon.
- Webweaver's actions in the exhibit push the Spider-Man archetype to extreme, obscene levels.
- Webweaver's role in the series may enlarge, potentially becoming a crucial weapon in the battle against Vought.

After being teased earlier in The Boys season 4, Webweaver plays an important (if somewhat minor) role in the sixth episode of the season, "Dirty Business."

Summary
- The Boys introduces Webweaver, a parody of Spider-Man, in "Dirty Business"
- Webweaver's powers involve a grosser version of webs, and he has a role as an informant for Butcher.
- Webweaver didn't actually appear in the original comics, and is a very different character from Marvel's own Web-Weaver.
The Boys has formally introduced their version of Spider-Man in the form of the comically inept informant, Webweaver. Played by Dan Mousseau in the sixth episode of The Boys fourth season, Webweaver is a minor player in the overall episode who offers up a suprirising explanation of how Butcher has been able to procure so much intel about Vought and the Seven.

Notably, Webweaver also serves as the latest example of The Boys reimagini
