When we found out that Michael Keaton was going to be in Spider-Man: Homecoming, we assumed he would Vulture, and probably be the film’s sole villain.
However, toy maker Diamond Select reportedly revealed at their San Diego Comic-Con panel that they are making a line of toys based on the film, and that line will also include the characters Shocker and Tinkerer.
This toy panel just seemingly (accidentally?) confirmed that Vulture, Tinkerer, *and* Shocker are all in SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING. #SDCC2016

The two characters are on pretty different ends of the villain spectrum. Tinkerer was one of Spidey’s first foes, appearing for the first time in the very same issue as Vulture. He’s a genius inventor, who often supplies the other baddies with the outfits and gadgets necessary for evil-doing.
Shocker, on the other hand, is a subject of frequent ridicule, an inept petty thief whose only real power comes from his vibration-emitting wrist bracers.
Spider-Man: Homecoming is currently filming, and doing a decent job of keeping its secrets under wraps. Hopefully, we will soon know more, including which actors will portray these characters. Stick with ScreenGeek.net for all the latest news!
