Why does Spidey make a "y" shape with his fingers to use his web shooters...

Why does Spidey make a "y" shape with his fingers to use his web shooters? It's more comfortable to make a full fist and feels less awkward.

How come his web shooters aren't always going off when he's punching people?

he can also depress the trigger with his ring and little finger while pointing his index and middle finger (like a gun) as well

when he balls his hand into a fist the trigger paddle bends a different way and doesn't trigger the web shooters

1) Style, He has it, you don't
2) He has to press hard to make them shoot, except the times when anyone can shoot them

the second question actually answers the first question

It's like you answered your one question with your other question.

They likely don't go off because he needs to extend his two fingers while pressing down with the other two. If he just balls up his fist, no webbing. If he just extends his hand, no webbing. It gives him full natural freedom with his fingers, without accidentally webbing something just by punching it.

Because it cool.
It's impossible to do that shit. Try and you will find out.

Its iconic, don't question it

He made the shooters so they only fire with the gesture BECAUSE he didn't want them firing when he made a fist to punch people.

Those are the cuckold's horns.

Bitches love Spider-Man.

He has to double tap his shooters to shoot web.

yeah i've never been able to understand how he does that
feels like my hand will spilt in two when i try

>Trying to emulate that hand
> get a cramp and pinky wont extend

It must be impossible for a human, right?

a regular human without the proportionate abilities of a spider

Sup Forums get out

There's traditionally a button on his palm, and to avoid setting it off while punching he has to double tap it.

This guy is the only one that's right.

Thank you, user. Have a Cap for your efforts.

Anyone have that page of Strange and Spidey comparing their similar hand shapes?

Ha, you dumb dumb, Spider-Man himself explained this:

First guy here to post the right answer.

What? It's pretty easy to do, unless he's supposed to be touching below the wrist (though I'm sure spider-flexibility helps). Is this like when people can't do the vulcan thing, or wink?

The pinky cannot fully extend as much as the pointer finger.

And sometimes the middle and ring fingers are fully down on the bottom of the palm, like the Raimi films, resulting in the pinky being impossible to raise above ring fingers first digit.

It's a satanic hand gesture.
