dwawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwpider-Man is a fictional superhero created by writffffffffffssssser-

editor Stan Lee and writer-artist Steve Ditko. He first appeared in the anthology comic book Amazing


Fantasy #15 (August 1962) in the Silver Age of Comic Books. He appears in American comic
books published by Marvel Comics, as well as in a number of movies, television shows, and video
game adaptations set in the Marvel Universe. In the stories, Spider-Man is the alias of Peter Parker,
an orphan raised by his Aunt May and Uncle Ben in New York City after his parents Richard and
Mary Parker were killed in a plane crash. Lee and Ditko had the character deal with the struggles of
adolescence and financial issues, and accompanied him with many supporting characters, such
as J. Jonah Jameson, Harry Osborn, Max Modell, romantic interests Gwen Stacy and Mary Jane
Watson, and foes such as Doctor Octopus, the Green Goblin and Venom. His origin story has him
acquiring spider-related abilities after a bite from a radioactive spider; these include clinging to
surfaces, shooting spider-webs from wrist-mounted devices, and detecting danger with his "spider-
sense".
When Spider-Man first appeared in the early 1960s, teenagers in superhero comic books were
usually relegated to the role of sidekick to the protagonist. The Spider-Man series broke ground by
featuring Peter Parker, a high school student from Queens behind Spider-Man's secret identity and
with whose "self-obsessions with rejection, inadequacy, and loneliness" young readers could relate.

 While Spider-Man had all the makings of a sidekick, unlike previous teen heroes such
as Bucky and Robin, Spider-Man had no superhero mentor like Captain America and Batman; he
thus had to learn for himself that "with great power there must also come great responsibility"—a line
included in a text box in the final panel of the first Spider-Man story but later retroactively
attributed to his guardian, the late Uncle Ben.
Marvel has featured Spider-Man in several comic book series, the first and longest-lasting of which
is The Amazing Spider-Man. Over the years, the Peter Parker character developed from a shy,
nerdy New York City high school student to troubled but outgoing college student, to married high
school teacher to, in the late 2000s, a single freelance photographer. In the 2010s, he joins
the Avengers, Marvel's flagship superhero team. Spider-Man's nemesis Doctor Octopus also took on
the identity for a story arc spanning 2012–2014, following a body swap plot in which Peter appears
to die.[10] Marvel has also published books featuring alternate versions of Spider-Man,
including Spider-Man 2099, which features the adventures of Miguel O'Hara, the
