Gliding ability after jumping out of a window multiple stories up, insulation to prevent electrocution, finger claws to tear out of web cocoon as well a slippery surface on his body to prevent webbing from sticking to him and sliding off. He also appears to possess a healing factor having once been shot without discomfort and having no visible wound soon after.
