Spider-Man (Marvel)

"With great power, comes great responsibility."

Spider-man is a superhero who was created by Marvel and has appeared in many television shows, comics, and movies based off of him.

Origin
Peter Parker was an average high school student with a variety of normal problems, who was living with his Aunt and Uncle due to the death of his parents. One day, on a school field trip to a museum, Peter was bitten by a radioactive spider. Soon after, he gained various spider-like abilities. At first, he sought to use his gifts for personal gain, but after his Uncle Ben was killed by a robber whom Peter intentionally let get away, he realized that "With great power comes great responsibility", and he began to use his powers to fight crime, and protect the innocent as Spider-man.

Over the years Spidey has had to juggle his everyday normal problems as Peter Parker with his important duties as Spider-man, fighting many different Super-villains, the most famous being: The Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, Venom, Carnage, Sandman, Electro, The Lizard, Scorpion, Mysterio, Vulture and many, many more.

Powers and Abilities
Spider-man has the proportionate strength of a spider, enabling him to lift approximately 10 tons. Super agility, dexterity, and reflexes fifteen times that of a normal human's. Spidey can adhere to any surface with his hands and feet, due to a strange substance secreted from his pores. He also has the ability to shoot webbing from his wrists via web shooters he created in the comics, and organically in the movie trilogy. One of his most famous powers is his "spider sense" which alerts him to any danger coming his way seconds before it happens. thumb|300px|left
