It’s developed by Oren Uziel, best known for his collaboration as a screenwriter with Lord and Miller on 22 Jump Street (2014). Right at the outset, Cage’s voiceover makes it clear that the spin-off series on Spider-Noir is not a stepping stone in the expanding Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), but a world unto its own: “Years ago, somebody asked me which universe I belong to. This is the only one I know.” Since New York City of the 1930s is the only dimension he knows, Cage’s ageing and jaded Ben Reilly doesn’t go about trying to erase the whole world’s collective memory to conceal his identity as Spider-Man.

One such creature is a frog that literally breaks its bones to defend itself. Meet the Hairy frog—a species found in Central Africa that has one of the strangest defence mechanisms in the animal kingdom. At first glance, it looks like a regular amphibian, but what it can do under threat sets it apart in a truly shocking way. A defence mechanism like no other Hairy frog is also popularly called the ‘Wolverine frog’ (Image: Wikimedia Commons) Unlike most frogs that rely on camouflage or quick escapes, the hairy frog takes a far more intense route. When threatened, it deliberately breaks the bones in its toes. These bones then push through the skin, forming sharp, claw-like projections that act as weapons against predators. What’s even more fascinating is that these claws are not permanent. Researchers believe the frog can retract them once the danger has passed, and over time, …
