Interesting facts about Spider-Man / Spider-Man

Steve Ditko on working on Spider-Man: "One of the first things I did was the costume. This is a vital visual part of the character. I needed to know what he looked like before I started drawing stories. For example, with the ability to cling to walls, he would not wear heavy boots or boots, and a secret weapon on his wrist replaced his firearm and holster. I wasn't sure if Stan would like the idea of ​​hiding his face behind a mask, but I did it because it covered an obviously boyish face. In addition, it added mystery to the hero.

Comics with Spiderman immediately gained popularity, they were sold in huge numbers, the hero became one of the main stars of the Marvel universe.

Peter Parker's parents died in a car accident when he was just a child. The care of the boy fell on the shoulders of his aunt May and uncle Ben Parker, who raised their nephew as their own son. Ben simply doted on the child, he constantly entertained and amused Peter. Little Parker worked hard at school and soon became an excellent student. The teachers praised him for his success, but his classmates did not like him much, because they considered him a nerd and a nerd.

Rise of Spider-Man

Peter Parker

But one day, Peter's life changed forever. He went to a science fair and was accidentally bitten by a spider that had been exposed to radiation. A few hours later, Peter discovered that he now had the ability to stick to walls and generally gained the powers of an arachnid.

Deciding to try new strengths in business, he came up with a bright costume for himself and began to perform in public under the big name Spider-Man (Eng. Spider-Man).

Sometime after the performance, a security guard asked Peter to help him apprehend a fleeing thief. But Parker refused, and the robber quietly fled.

To the boy's dismay, a few days later the same bandit killed his uncle Ben. Peter was beside himself with grief! He swore that he would never leave a person in trouble again and would always help people. Spider-Man realized that with great power comes great responsibility.

Spider-Man - schoolboy

Peter soon began fighting villains such as Chameleon, Vulture, Doctor Octopus, Sandman, Doctor Doom, Lizard, Electro, Mysterio, Green Goblin, and Scorpion. He even tried to join the Fantastic Four, and although this venture was unsuccessful, Parker became friends with the Human Torch.

But the publisher of the Daily Bugle, Jonah Jameson, hated masked heroes and branded Spidey as a dangerous criminal. Peter decided to cash in on Jameson's greed and take pictures of himself by selling pictures of Spider-Man to a newsboy.

He later graduated with honors, although he nearly missed prom while fighting Molten Man. Fortunately, the hero prevailed and found out that he had entered the university as an external student.

Spiderman in college

Spiderman

During his studies, Parker met his future wife Mary Jane Watson, but began dating Gwen Stacy (who later died tragically at the hands of the Green Goblin). Peter also became friends with Harry Osborn and some time later found out that his father Norman was the Goblin. In addition, he met the insidious villains Kingpin, Rhino, Shocker, Grey-haired and Tramp.

After graduating from college, the hero encountered the thief Black Cat and even dated her for a while, and also fought the bandits Hydro-Man, Speed ​​Demon and Hobgoblin. Moreover, he managed to fight the terrible Juggernaut and the mighty Fire Lord. And at one time, Spider-Man wore a black suit, which, as it turned out later, turned out to be an alien symbiote. All this time, Peter's relationship with Mary Jane grew stronger, and soon the couple got married.

Spiderman Adventures

Spider-Man and Morlun

Soon the insidious Norman Osborn returned to Peter's life and again tried to destroy him, but to no avail. The hero then met a man named Ezekiel who claimed that Parker's powers came from magic and not from a radioactive spider, and this made Spider-Man wonder about the true nature of his powers. Then Peter encountered the terrible Queen, who turned him into a huge arachnid. Returning to his human form, the hero found that his strength had increased, and now he can create an organic web. Soon Spider joined the Avengers team.

After Peter's encounter with the terrible vampire Morlun, everyone thought that the superhero was dead. But later he rose from the dead and even put on a new suit that Tony Stark gave him. However, Spidey eventually returned to his classic outfit.

During the Civil War, Peter sided with Iron Man and even agreed to reveal his secret identity to millions of television cameras. But later, when he saw what Stark's allies were doing, he regretted his decision and went over to Captain America. For a while, Parker even wore a black suit again, but it was no longer a symbiote, but an ordinary cloth outfit.

Fatal Shot at Spider-Man

Now all of Parker's enemies knew that he and Spider-Man were the same person. The Kingpin, who was in prison, hired an assassin to shoot the hero. Peter dodged the bullet and it hit my aunt. The doctor told him and Mary that the patient's life could not be saved.

To pay for May's treatment, Spidey turned to Tony Stark for help. He put on the armor and tried to arrest the hero for treason during the Civil War, but the hero caught him in a cocoon of cobwebs. Parker accused Stark of making him make the worst mistake of his life and demanded money for his aunt's hospital expenses.

However, Tony refused, stating that he was not going to help the criminal. He flew away, but Stark's butler Edwin Jarvis later brought Parker the money he needed. However, even they could not fix the situation ...

Spider-Man's deal with Mephisto

Spider-Man struggled to find someone who would cure his aunt. He turned to Doctor Strange, but even he could not help. Peter went to the past and tried to change it, but in vain. As a result, the demon Mephisto approached him with a proposal. He promised to save May and change reality so that no one else would remember that Peter is Spider-Man. In return, Mephisto wanted Mary Jane and Parker to give him their happiness and love.

The heroes agreed. The next morning, Peter woke up alone, but Aunt May was alive and well.

New World of Spider-Man

The amazing Spider Man

Parker's life has changed dramatically. Now he has moved in with Aunt May, and his best friend Harry Osborn has risen from the dead.

However, Peter is now sucking unlucky in love. Some things, however, have not changed. Jonah Jameson remained the same miser and refused to pay Parker normal fees. When Peter told the publisher what he thinks of him, he had a heart attack.

As a result, the Daily Bugle was sold, and Spider had to work as an ordinary paparazzi. Parker later left for Ben Urich's Editorial.

Change for the better in Spider-Man's life

Spiderman and Anti-Venom

After Spidey's return, many of his enemies reappeared as well, but now he could fight them on his own terms.

Aunt May got a job at a homeless shelter working under Martin Lee, who was actually the mafia boss Master Negative.

Eddie Brock returned to the city in the guise of Anti-Venom, and Norman Osborn tried to set his Thunderbolts on the hero, who later became the Dark Avengers.

In addition, Peter had to fight a new villain, Menace, who used a glider and a Green Goblin weapon.

And in the life of Parker there was a new heroine named Jackpot.

At first, the hero suspected that it was Mary Jane, but she turned out to be Alana Jobson.

The spider found out that the girl acquired her abilities thanks to special drugs, because of which Alana eventually died.

And although Parker enjoyed the fact that no one knew his secret identity, he soon revealed it himself to several friends from the Avengers team.

Dark Days of Spider-Man

During the Dark Reign, Peter had to come to terms with the fact that his worst enemy Norman Osborn (Green Goblin) is now in charge of America's security.

The madman recruited a team of pseudo-heroes from his henchmen, and introduced Venom (Mac Gargan) to everyone as Spider-Man.

Because of this, Parker had to reveal his true identity to the Avengers and the Fantastic Four.

Family of hunters vs. Spider-Man

The family of Craven the Hunter - his wife Sasha, children Anya and Alyosha, and half-brother Chameleon - decided to take revenge on the Spider for the death of the villain, although he himself committed suicide. They kidnapped Madame Web and the third Spider-Woman (Matty Franklin). The scoundrels set a whole pack of his old opponents on the hero in order to weaken Spider-Man before the final act of the performance they had conceived.

The Kravinovs sacrificed Matty in order to resurrect the hunter's son, Vladimir. However, he returned to life in the form of a lion-like creature. And in order for Craven himself to rise from the dead, Peter had to be sacrificed. But the clone of the hero Cain, replacing him, died instead of Parker, thereby saving his life.

Spider-Man - Workaholic Hero

Spider-Man and Fantastic Four

When Aunt May married John Jameson Sr., they asked John Jr. - who by then had become mayor of New York - to find the guy a job. Marla Madison recommended the hero to the director of the Horizon Science Laboratory, where he became one of the best employees.

After the death of the Human Torch, Parker joined the Fantastic Four and worked with that team until Johnny was reborn. Later, after the fall of Norman Osborn's regime, Peter rejoined the Avengers.

City of Spiders

Soon, the supervillain Jackal returned to the life of the hero, who was guilty of creating clones of Parker. Now he worked for the Spider Queen and, along with Cain in disguise, endowed the inhabitants of Manhattan with the powers of arachnids. Luckily, Mister Fantastic managed to create a cure for them from Anti-Venom's blood.

However, as a result of this incident, Mephisto's magical protection, which hid the secret of Parker's identity, weakened, and his girlfriend Carly Cooper guessed who he was. After that, the couple broke up.

Today we have a very interesting topic: Spider-Man costumes. We will tell you what his costumes are made of, how many of them, and what gadgets are used.

After learning about his abilities after being bitten by a spider, Peter saw an ad in the newspaper offering a cash prize to anyone who lasted three minutes in the ring with a professional wrestler. Peter thought it was a good way to test his strength. To maintain anonymity, he puts on old clothes and makes himself a mask.

This is what the very first Spider-Man costume looked like.

After the victory, Peter was offered to become a show business star, for which Peter makes himself the well-known red and blue suit for all of us.

The suit was made from spandex, consisting of polyurethane fibers. The fabric is very elastic - it is able to stretch by 600% and return to its original state in a very short time. Spandex has great wear resistance, is also easy to wash and dries quickly.

Large white lenses are sewn to the mask for a good view in the mask. The lenses also function as sunglasses.

The suit has standard set gadgets:

Symbiote, "black suit"

First appearance of Secret Wars #8

Venom appears in the eighth edition of the "Secret Wars" event. Otherworldly (beyond), seeing how strong the earthly heroes are, against their will transferred a group of heroes and villains to another planet located in another galaxy to fight each other. In one such battle, Spider-Man tore his suit. He was advised to find himself a new suit at one of the bases. Finding an unknown mechanism at the base that released a black sphere, the Spider touched it. Thus, he released a sharpened Venom, which replaces his old suit, makes him stronger and gives him a more formidable black color.

The suit gave Spider-Man new abilities such as:

• Superhuman strength
  The symbiote greatly strengthens the muscles and skeleton of the body, making it much stronger;
• Superhuman durability
  The symbiote strengthens the body, allowing it to safely survive falls from high altitudes, gun shots, strikes of the strongest superheroes like Hulk and Juggernaut. The symbiote is also capable of absorbing small caliber bullets;
• Superhuman Stamina
  The symbiote significantly slows down the production of fatigue toxins in the muscles. Due to this, the wearer is able to be at the peak of his abilities for 24 hours before he starts to get tired;
• Regenerative healing factor
  The suit allows you to heal wounds much faster than they heal on ordinary people;
• Symbiote detection
  The symbiote is able to sense other symbiotes over long distances;
• web development
  The symbiote also allows it to produce its own web, made up of the suit's genetic material. Its strength is 58 kg per 1 mm²;
• Camouflage
  Symbiote allows you to copy any clothes.

After Peter got rid of the symbiote, he was left without a suit at all. In order not to run home naked, Peter is given one of the Fantastic Four's spare costumes, and instead of a mask, a bag is put on his head.

On the way home, the "Package Man" stops a gang of bandits. After that, journalists attack him, asking a bunch of questions about who he is, how he managed to stop the bandits, whether he is trying to make fun of superheroes with his costume. Without answering questions, Peter runs away from the journalists and runs home.

Black suit

First appearance of Spectacular Spider-Man #99

Another suit worth mentioning is the black suit, but not the symbiote. After Peter got rid of the alien suit, he was surprised by the Black Cat, who made him an exact copy of the black suit, as she considered Spider to be sexier in it.

The costume is made of the same material as the classic one, i.е. from spandex. At first, Peter didn't wear it, but when his regular suit was torn or in the wash, Peter wore a black suit. But after Venom visited Mary Jane, seriously frightening her, she asked Peter to take off this suit. Thus, the black suit temporarily went to the shelf.

In the future, Peter wore a black suit to show the enemies that he was serious and not going to joke. In this costume, the Spider behaved extremely aggressively, despite the fact that it was not a symbiote.

In a black suit, Spiderman nearly killed Wilson Fisk (Kingpin / Kingpin) and Sergey Kravinov (Kraven the Hunter).

First appearance Amazing Spider-Man #529

After pacifying the riot at the Raft Prison, Spider-Man joined the New Avengers and befriended Iron Man. Stark took care of Peter in every possible way, even settling the Parker family in the Avengers Tower. Before the Civil War, Tony Stark made an agreement with Peter: Peter tacitly became his main assistant. On this occasion, Tony Stark gave Peter an armored suit made from Kevlar microfiber. Kevlar has high strength (five times stronger than steel, tensile strength σ0= 3620 MPa). Kevlar retains strength and elasticity at low temperatures, up to cryogenic temperatures (-196°C). Moreover, at low temperatures, it even becomes a little stronger. When heated, Kevlar does not melt, but decomposes at relatively high temperatures (430-480°C). The golden details of the costume are made of titanium alloy.

The spider emblem serves as a housing for the computer system that controls the suit's gadgets, as follows:

• mesh glider
  Allows you to make short flights, the computer can calculate the flight path;
• Radio communication
  Built-in communication lines for firefighters, police and ambulance, sound and video amplification. Including infrared light and ultraviolet;

armored suit

First appearance of Amazing Spider-Man #654

When Spidey lost his spider-sense and was shot by Marcus Lyman, Spidey had to somehow protect himself. For this reason, he made himself a new armored suit that can withstand bullets up to and including sniper rifle bullets.

In his costume, the Spider broke into the building where Marcus Lyman was holding hostages. The bandit tried to kill the hostages, but the Spider in his armor took the blow, withstanding a 5.56 mm machine gun burst. As a result, the Spider pushed Marcus outside, where dozens of snipers tried to shoot him. But Spider-Man saved the criminal by protecting him from sniper bullets, which his suit successfully withstood.

The material of the costume is not exactly known. Most likely the material is a high-impact polymer that Peter invented. Kevlar is worn under the black coating. On the head is a helmet with narrow lenses on the holes to minimize the chance of a bullet hitting the eye. Web shooters are not on the wrists, but on the forearm.

Another feature of the suit is a magnetic web that blocks any radio signals. Peter made it so that Marcus Lyman could not use the detonators.

Peter created Spider Armor to help the Night's Watch defeat a new villainous team called the Enforcers, whose members had dangerous abilities and were a threat to all of New York. Acting as a team, they were very dangerous even for Spidey. Spider-Man was endangered by the powers of Dragon, Termite, and Eel, which could easily fry or undermine Spidey, as well as by a woman called the Plant, who released poisonous spores. The armor is worn over a normal suit. The armor is made of Kevlar fiber. The plates are made of titanium alloy, which increases strength and heat resistance. The plates are connected so as not to interfere with movement. The lenses are made of heat-resistant glass that can withstand high temperatures. Under the mask there is a built-in filter that cleans the air from poisonous spores.

When the fight with the Enforcers began, the armor perfectly protected the Spider from high temperatures and explosions. But during the battle, the armor gradually broke down from numerous blows. The fatal move was made by Thermite, which melted the plates and then froze Spidey. Spider-Man broke the frozen armor. Spiderman never used this armor again.

Costume Features:

• Armor
  The plates can withstand small caliber bullets;
• Heat resistance
  Kevlar and titanium withstand high temperatures;
• Filter
  The filter under the mask allows you to purify the air from toxic gases (spores).

stealth suit

First appearance of Amazing Spider-Man #650

One day, the Hobgoblin broke into Horizon Labs and stole an artificially created metal, revirbium, which is almost impossible to destroy, and once reflecting the vibrations nearly destroyed the entire building.

In order to keep this dangerous metal from falling into the wrong hands, the Spider decides to steal it back, but to do this he had to get into the heavily guarded tower of the Kingpin. For these purposes, the Spider decided to develop a special suit that makes him invisible and isolates any external sounds in order to protect himself from the Hobgoblin's ultrasonic laughter, as well as internal sounds (in this case, Spider-Man's voice and breathing).

The suit is made of an omi-harmonic network with light and sound bending properties. The suit has 3 modes:

• Green, stealth mode
  In this mode, the suit bends light and sound, making Spidey invisible, and isolates sound. Neon lines serve to ensure that, while in stealth mode, the Spider can navigate in space. With the help of special lenses, he sees these lines;
• Red, soundproof mode
  Completely isolates all external sounds, including ultrasound;
• White
  This is the normal mode, becomes a normal suit.

In addition to these properties, the suit has another feature - these are special anti-metal spider bugs that can destroy any type of metal.

Future Foundation Costume

First appearance of Amazing Spider-Man #658

When the Future Foundation called Spidey on a mission, he showed up in an old Fantastic Four costume to join their team. But the team ended up in new costumes, and they also gave a new costume to Spidey. Peter initially joked that he looked like an anti-venom and people would think he was bad.

The suit is made of unstable molecules. Fabric of unstable molecules, difficult to cut with a knife and pierce with small caliber bullets. The suit cannot be stained, which is a big plus, since the suit is white.

Scarlet Spider Costume

First appearance of Web of Spider-Man Vol 1 #118

After a long wandering, Ben Riley, believing himself to be a useless clone, returned to New York with a desire to help Spider in the fight against crime.

Riley makes herself a different costume from Spidey's. Wears a red leotard that is identical in material to the Spider suit (spandex). Over the tights, a blue sleeveless sweatshirt with a spider emblem on the chest.

On top of the suit are web shooters and a belt with cartridges for them. Web shooter cartridges are larger than Spidey's, which increases the supply of webs. One of the features of the costumes are poisonous darts in web shooters that paralyze enemies.

After the first battle with Venom and saving people, the journalists who watched it nicknamed Ben the Scarlet Spider.

First appearance of Sensational Spider-Man #0

One day, Peter and Ben were confused. A certain Seward Trainer, who worked for Osborn, informed Ben that he was the real Spider, and Peter was his clone. Shocked by this news, besides learning that Mary Jane is pregnant, Peter decides to give up his superhero career. And asks Ben to take his place. But Riley didn't fill in for Spiderman for long. Peter returned when he found out that they had been misled.

It is worth mentioning that in this costume, Ben merged with the symbiote Carnage.
As the Scarlet Spider was escaping from the Ravencroft Institute, he merged with Carnage, who escaped through the plumbing from his host Cletus Kasady's cell.

Kernage gives all the same abilities as Venom, but he also knows how to transform limbs into melee weapons.

Ben managed to subdue the symbiote, and exposed himself to microwave radiation in an attempt to kill the symbiote, but he last moment manages to escape, and returns to the former carrier.

First appearance of Peter Parker Spider-Man #90

When Peter entered the Negative Zone, his costume changed to black and gray. And then the Spider was attacked locals, but he was saved by a hero named Dusk. Later it turned out that those who attacked him were the people of the local tyrant ruler. After that, Spidey joins the Dusk, who led the rebels, and fights shoulder to shoulder with him. Dusk soon died in a fierce battle, and at the request of the rebels, Spider-Man donned the Dusk costume.

In this costume, Spidey leads the attack and leads the rebels to victory. After that, Peter returns to his world, taking the Dusk costume with him.

Dusk

One of the features of the suit is a glider, which allows you to fly short distances. Since the suit is completely black, it is almost impossible to see it in the dark.

Spider-Man dons this costume in the "Identity Crisis" arc in Peter Parker: Spider-Man #91, in which he played the role of a mercenary in order to get information from a man named Trapster. Who, on Osborn's orders, staged the murder and framed Spidey.

While we're on the subject of the "Identity Crisis" arc, let's continue with the costumes that Peter wore during this period. And let's start from the very first
which he tried on is the Ricochet suit.

Ricochet

First appearance of Amazing Spider-Man #434

Once, Norman Osborn framed Spider-Man by rigging the murder of a petty crook named Joey Z. To do this, he filled his lungs with the web that Spidey uses. He also provoked Spider-Man to attack him in public. The spider was put on the wanted list, and the reward for the capture was $ 5 million. Spider-Man could not safely appear on the street, as most of the police and ordinary people tried to catch him.

In Amazing Spider-Man #434, Peter put the Spider-Man suit on the shelf and donned the new suit that Mary Jane made for him to live up to the good name of Spider-Man.

The costume is made from spandex. Over a leather jacket, on the sleeves of which discs for throwing are attached. The discs are made from a special alloy that allows them to bounce off hard surfaces while maintaining most energy.

In order not to give himself away, in this suit, Peter used only his agility, jumping away from attacks, and jumping from wall to wall, which is why he was nicknamed Ricochet.

Using the Ricochet costume, Peter temporarily teamed up with an old nemesis of Spider-Man, Deliala, in order to get information on some villains, including the Black Tarantula, who was hunting Spider-Man and suspected that Ricochet was hiding Man- Spider.

After Spidey and Deliala managed to stop the Black Tarantula, Peter put Ricochet's suit on the shelf.

Hornet

First appearance of The Sensational Spider-Man #27

The new costume was again made by Mary Jane. Peter borrowed web shooter technology from the Scarlet Spider, making bracelets that fired paralyzing darts. Instead of the usual mask, Peter put on a helmet with protective glass. The jetpack was made by Hobie Brown, but since the jetpack was too heavy to carry ordinary person, he gave it to the Spider.

The debut of Spider-Man in the Hornet costume was successful. Within a few days, Hornet became folk hero. The hornet stopped Luther (looter), who stole the money that served as a reward for the capture of Spider-Man. After that, Hornet was interviewed, asking "Would you stay in New York to stop Spider-Man" to which he replied "I don't think you don't have to worry about Spider-Man anymore". But the words of the hornet were distorted, and something completely different was printed in the newspapers. Because of this article, the Human Torch attacked the Hornet, warning him that if he touched Spider-Man, he would regret it.

One day during a fight with Vulture, Vulture learned Spider-Man's fighting style and his taunts, he realized that Hornet is Spider-Man and planned to reveal the truth to people. Therefore, Peter was forced to remove the Hornet costume.

After the Hornet costume, Peter puts on the Dusk Costume mentioned at the beginning.

When Peter was looking for Trasper in his Twilight costume, Osborn put a bounty on Trasper's head to keep him from talking. Spiderman manages to save Trasper from the Shocker. Dusk said he helped Trapster because Norman used him too. Dusk and Trapster became allies. Once Trapster called Dusk with him to kill Norman Osborn, but Peter stopped him, he convinced Trasper to confess in court that Osborn ordered to do so that his life would be hell. The trapster did just that, and thus, Spider-Man's name was partially cleared.

Prodigy

First appearance of The Spectacular Spider-Man #257

Prodigy is a yellow armored suit made of Kevlar fiber. On top of the suit are shields made of durable polymer. In this suit, Peter jumped with all his might, and from the side it seemed that he was flying.

Dressed as a Prodigy, Peter stopped the mercenaries who were hired by a man known as Riddle. Riddle wanted to kidnap the ambassador's daughter, who stole a certain glove that has great power. But Jack O'Lantern took the glove from the ambassador's daughter. When Peter found the ambassador's daughter and tried to free her, he was attacked by Jack Lantern, but before he could do anything, he was killed by Norman Osborn, who nailed him to the scene.

Later at the press conference, Peter, dressed as Prodigy, revealed that he was Spider-Man, he explained what had happened. People accepted it and Spider-Man's name was completely cleared. And Peter put on his old suit.

First appearance of The Amazing Spider-Man #329

A mysterious source of energy travels the universe in search of those who need the power of this energy. This energy chose Spidey as its host in The Amazing Spider-Man #329.

The spider received his new power after a strong electric shock in the laboratory. But the electric shock partially blocked most of Captain Universe's energy abilities, and Peter could not use the new powers to their full potential. But Peter believed that the electric shock was the reason for the increase in his spider abilities.

One day, Spider-Man and the other heroes encountered a team assembled by Loki, and with the help of a new power, Spider-Man defeated them. But Loki did not stop and created the Triguard (Tri-sentinel) of the three Guardians, mutant-hunting robots.

And at that moment, Spider-Man manifested all the power of energy, and he turned into Captain Universe. The full force of Captain Universe's energy gave Spider the following abilities:

• Superhuman strength
  Spider-Man's normal strength increased by 50 times;
• universal vision
  A kind of cosmic consciousness. Captain Universe can sense objects at the subatomic level or at great distances. It can also force a person to tell what he wants to know. The information received is always true;

• Heat resistance
  The Captain Universe suit protects the wearer from varying temperatures;

All of these abilities will not work if the wearer tries to use them for anything other than their mission. It was the Triguard, who was very dangerous, that was the reason why Spider-Man became Captain Universe. When Peter defeated the Triguard, this energy left him.

Spiderman or Spiderman (Peter Benjamin Parker, eng. Spiderman) is a Marvel comic book superhero invented by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. Spider-Man first appeared in the series comic book Amazing Fantasy #15 in August 1962. Since then, he has been one of the most famous and commercially successful superheroes. Now it appears not only in comics, but also in movies, on television, on clothes, in video games and in the form of toys.

This is the main character of a teenage superhero who works independently, and does not help a mature superhero. However, during the release of stories about him, he managed to graduate from high school, college, and even become a married teacher.

Character Creation

In 1962, at the beginning of the so-called Silver Age comics, and after the success of the Fantastic Four and other characters like the Hulk, Ant-Man or Iron Man, the director of Marvel Comics, he asked his main writer, Stan Lee, who created a new superhero that would eventually be Spider-Man.

At the time, teen characters in superhero comics tended to retain their roles from companions to main characters, but Stan Lee couldn't stand that kind of character and Spider-Man broke that trend by taking them as protagonists. b These readers will identify immediately with Peter Parker, the "alter ego" of Spider-Man, for his timid nature, their loneliness and their limited ability to fit between young people of their own age.

Stan Lee cites among his influences, the Spider-Slayer crime, which appeared published in a Pulp-type magazine.

Lee submitted the draft to editorial director Martin Goodman, but rejected the character, considering that spiders were not of public taste. He allowed, however, to introduce Spider-Man eventually into the series, which featured on each copy a different story, often about monsters, aliens, or the paranormal. The series was called Amazing Fantasy, which, in order to last number(fifteenth), change its name to Amazing Fantasy.

Jack Kirby, Lee's biggest contributor, was given the task of drawing that first story. However, Lee was not too happy with the result. In his opinion, Spider-Man designed by Kirby remembered the other heroes of this drawing: too muscular, similar to Captain America. The commission then passed into the hands of Steve Ditko, a darker Kirby artist accustomed to giving life to mysterious and unusual characters. with Ditko with the final portrayal of Spider-Man completely rejecting Kirby's previous work, which used a traditional superhero costume and a partial mask, Buccaneer gloves and boots, and a gun of sorts. He shoots the web. Instead, Ditko designed a recognizable costume from anywhere, a very original, closed-eyed and large white-looking mask that made the Spider-Man hero somewhat sinister.

early years

A few months after Spider-Man debuted at #15 Amazing Fantasy (August to October 1962), editor-in-chief Martin Goodman found sales of that number to be impressive. Goodman ordered Lee to immediately provide the trepamuros with a collection of his own, which would be called The Amazing Spider-Man and would begin his career with a cover date of March 1963. Ditko will remain as the series' illustrator at number 38, but will leave this task of creative disagreement with Stan Lee. d will be replaced by John Romita, which Spider-Man will provide a more romantic air, making him more muscular and curvy. Romita also redesigned Gwen Stacy, a minor character who would soon become Peter Parker's great love before his death, and met Mary Jane Watson, and Peter's neighbor Pleasure, whom many years later ended up marrying.

seventies

In the early seventies, the story of Spider-Man forced a revision of the Comics Code, the censorship mechanism for American comics. Until then, this code is not restrictively prohibited from mentioning drugs, speaking only negatively of them. However, at that time, the United States Department of Health went to Stan Lee to ask me to write a story with an anti-drug message, and this story appeared in one of the comics' best-selling Marvel.

Lee decided to make an arc of three numbers that appear on numbers 96, 97, and 98 of The Amazing Spider-Man (May to July 1971). In the adventure, Harry Osborn, Peter Parker's best friend, became addicted to LSD. Although the story is clear of his anti-drug message, Comics Code rejected to include their imprint on it. Stan Lee then decided to publish it out of print, which eventually led to a loosening of the rules governing it.

In the seventies, both Stan Lee and John Romita gave up their tasks in The Amazing Spider-Man, and although this would have been a later arrangement than the character's press strips, it would have fallen into other hands: screenwriter young Gerry Conway, who work with artists such as Ross Andru and wrote two of the most famous stories about lanzarredes: the death of Gwen Stacy in September and the Clone Saga.

In 1972 came the second series of Spider-Man to be published in parallel to Amazing. It was a Marvel Team-Up that Spider-Man co-starred with other Marvel heroes.

In 1976, he begins his second solo series, Peter Parker, a gripping Spider-Man that intertwines their stories with those of Amazing, focusing mainly on Peter Parker's personal life.

nineties

The launch of the fourth title in 1990, compiled and written by Todd McFarlane, an author who placed among fan favorites with his previous graphic work Amazing, was met with a best-seller: three million copies of the first issue, although this was largely due to the strong presence of speculators in the American market. comics in the nineties, a phenomenon that would lead to the greatest crisis in its history, from which only beginning to recover ten years later.

In 1999, she undertook a major restructuring of the arachnid franchise. The Amazing Spider-Man series, which had been published since 1963, would be canceled at issue 441 (November 1998) to return later with a new issue 1. The same would apply to the second spider-man collection, which was then titled Peter Parker: Man- spider (the old "Spider-Man" McFarlane).

New numbers 1 lanzarredes are coming, and in early 1999, the hand of writer Howard McKee, who from years ago, wrote some of the Spider-Man collections, and artist and writer John Byrne, who also try to revisit the origin of the character with a series that will soon take place in Fly: Spiderman: Chapter One. Not a single commercial success or critical accompaniment to Relaunch's false character seemed in everyone's view to have lost its luster of yesteryear.

2000

Since the turn of the century, Joe Quesada, the new editorial director, has launched an operation to bring back the pomp to Spider-Man (and all of Marvel in general), leading to the signing of prestigious television writer Joe Straczynski for such a task. Straczynski's arrival was widely acclaimed by readers, and soon sales began to rise (triple the original print run), although their changes would not have been without controversy, raised by the sins of the past saga.

Although the Straczynski stage has been criticized by several "traditionalists", the truth is that few writers have been able to describe Spider-Man's adult and so serious mind in a way that I'm giving away some pomp of the past while also having the advantage of presenting new stories. based on magic and "packing out" common "super-tech" enemies, all portrayed by an artist of great prestige like John Romita Jr.

Thanks to this, Amazing restored their original numbering, and so, in December 2003, it would see the light of day for their historic 500. The collection has continued to number since then.

But misguided and dubious editorial decisions shortly before the Civil War landmark (as Straczynski said in "One More Day: Special Edition"), led to lower quality publications, such as the Other/El Otro series J, which lack the argument's strength it must probably be due to the diversity of writers and artists.

When some critics reclaimed the quality in the "Back In Black" K Marvel story decided that Spider-Man needed to be more fun and less mature to suit the style of superhero movies, so they tried to bring the character back to its origins.

This brings up "SAGA One More Day" 11 which, though shown to be magnificent argumentalmente (in dialogues and l graphics), brings the controversy to its bitter end: It was decided that Spider-Man never married Mary Jane, and the reality of the Marvel Universe twists it so much of what happened in "Amazing" in the final stages "never happened", reverting to more fun Spider-Man and simplistic to appeal to younger readers.

Typically, Spider-Man has two regular series on the market, m n supported by other miniseries and specials. Also in 2000, the launch hosted Ultimate Spider-Man, an update on the character's mythos that tells their stories from the start as if they were happening over the course of the first time. Series written by Bendis and drawn in his first 110 numbers by Mark Bagley, Or Reach incredible success and lead to a disguised new audience.

2010

Marvel announced that the character he expected big changes in his 5 sampler posters with the title "The Year of Spider-Man 2010". Already in 2009, a saga called "launched a gauntlet," which would end in "Hunting Sinister." These two tales narrate the return of several classic Trepa villains—and the revenge of his walls—Kraven the Hunter's family, the Kravinoff. Finally the Kravinoff family is overcome as a result of Origin of the Species, where Spider-Man must save a child from Norman Osborn and Lily Hollyster Dr.

Octopus and other villains are seen in Gauntlet (revealing that the father is Harry's child). 2010 Spider-Man ends with a big time where, despite the fact that the deal with Mephisto is still standing, all of the New Day continuity changes are removed, as is the return of Harry Osborn, who goes to care for his son, Stanley. Peter gets a permanent job and pays well as the new star of the Horizon Science Labs. The Great Moment returns Duende and Wilson Fisk to lifelong superheroes as new outfits for various functions.

After the death of a human torch in the negative zone. Spider-Man replaces his Fantastic 4, at the request of Johnny, was renamed the group as the Future Foundation and changing the group of his traditional costumes, including Spiderman.

Some are in black and white. 16 In June, it was announced that a new script for the series would be released in November by Zeb Wells and drawn by Joe Madureira called "The Punisher Spider-Man" in order to model the seventies "Marvel Team-Up" series, featuring adventures with little impact on "Amazing Spider" -Man" where Spider-Man teams up with several heroes in the Marvel Universe, in this case (from which the series name comes) there would be several of his fellow Avengers guests.

In 2011, in publications typical of comics (located in another universe, the so-called Ultimate), Peter Parker died fighting the Green Goblin. Comic book writer Brian Bendis explained that this was due to a very important reason, after which, a mini-series was created by Ultimates Fallout, with a young Hispanic, Miles Morales, taking Parker's place.

In the bow of Octopus's "dying wish", a doctor who suffered from osteochondrosis who was on the verge of death switches bodies with Parker through one of his Octobots, Peter does his best to restore his body, but unfortunately not for this even in the final the battle he manages to pierce through all his experiences, like Spider-Man who does realize Octopus how bad his methods were, finally Peter Parker dies in Doctor Octopus's body while it is, he swears he will stay.

Spider-Man protecting his loved ones on the spot and with his unstoppable genius and boundless ambition would be the best Spider-Man ever - Parker referred to this as "Superior Spider-Man". He then discovered that there is still a fragment of Peter Parker's mind in Octopus's mind acting like a ghost and gaining more control over your body.

Superior Spider-Man #9, Doc Oka realizes the presence of Peter's ghost and after an intense fight Octopus erases all memories of Parker living in his mind, which ends up being destroyed by Peter, but definitely not. Finally in the nose of the "Goblin Nation" Doc Ock the victim of erasing all traces of his mind in order to get his body and thus stop the Green Goblin caused complete chaos in New York

Biography

early years

Peter Parker was orphaned at the age of six when his parents died in a plane crash. Peter was taken in by his aunt and uncle, Ben and May Parker. He was a very intelligent boy who was much appreciated by the teachers at Midtown High School, but his shyness and interest in learning often made him an outcast among his peers.

Boy, spider and robber

General Techtronics Corporation was holding an exhibition on the safe handling of radiation, and Peter, as a true science lover, simply could not miss it. At the exhibition, he was bitten by a spider exposed to radiation in the accelerator elementary particles. On the way home, Peter discovered that he had somehow gained incredible strength, agility, and the ability to hang on walls, and immediately knew it was due to a spider bite.

After seeing an ad offering a cash prize to anyone who lasts three minutes in the ring with a professional wrestler, Peter decided that this was a good way to test his strength. To avoid shame in case of defeat, he built himself a mask. Parker easily defeated the opponent and was noticed by a television producer who convinced him to get a job in television. After sewing a flamboyant costume and constructing containers that shoot webs, Peter called himself Spider-Man and became an instant sensation.

After his TV appearance, Peter refused to stop the thief, saying it was none of his business. Pete forgot about this incident and continued to bathe in the glory. Returning home one evening, he found that Uncle Ben had been killed. After learning from the police that the criminal was cornered in an old warehouse, Peter went there and easily defeated him. When the face of the criminal fell into the rays of light, Parker recognized in him the very robber whom he had once refused to detain. Filled with remorse, Peter realized that with great power comes great responsibility. He soon embarked on a glittering crime-fighting career as the Amazing Spider-Man.

Acceptance of Great Responsibility

At first, Spider-Man wanted to join the Fantastic Four, but this team refused him. Then he began to pluck all sortscrimes alone, and sold the pictures taken with an automatic camera to the Daily Bugle newspaper ( Daily Bugle). Spider-Man quickly became the most famous New Yorker, though Bugle publisher John Jameson was always branding him a threat. Most of all, Parker feared for Aunt May: he thought that if she found out about his superhero activities, shea heart attack will happen.

At the beginning of his career, the Spider fought the Chameleon for the first time ( Chameleon), Vulture, Tinkerer, Kraven the Hunter ( Kraven the Hunter Sandman ( Sandman), Lizard, Doctor Doom (Dr Doom), Mysterio (Misterio) and Green Goblin Green Goblin). But his main enemy of that time was the insidious Doctor Octopus ( Doc Ok). It was he who gathered several of the above villains into the Sinister Six team ( Sinister Six) with the sole purpose of destroying Spider-Man.

At the time, Peter was dating Betty Brant ( Betty Brant , a secretary from the Daily Bugle. Betty was very jealous of Parker for Liz Allan ( Liz Allan) who was in love with him. Aunt May and the Parkers' neighbor Anna Watson ( Anna Watson hoped that Peter would start dating Mary Jane(Mary Jane) , Anna's niece, but the young people first saw each other only a few months later.

University studies and life after graduation

After graduating from school, Peter entered the Empire State University, and now he had to combine study, work and exploits. Parker soon became friends with Harry Osborn, the son of Norman Osborn, the Green Goblin. Peter and Harry rented an apartment together, and Parker helped his friend study and supported him at times when the relationship with his father became especially difficult.

The Green Goblin came up with more and more ingenious ways to deal with the Spider, and he soon eclipsed the rest of Treetop's enemies with his antics. The goblin was not only the first villain, but in general the first person to learn the secret of Spider-Man's identity.

At university, Peter met Gwen Stacy and they fell in love. However, after Gwen's father, police captain George Stacy, died during a fight between Spider-Man and Doctor Octopus while trying to save the child, the girl hated the Spider and blamed him for her father's death. Peter did not reveal his secret to her, fearing that this would destroy their relationship.

The joint happiness of Peter and Gwen was short-lived. One day, the Green Goblin kidnapped her and threw her off a bridge. Spider-Man released the web and caught Gwen by the legs, but from a sharp jerk, her spine broke. The loss of Gwen was for Peter, perhaps the worst tragedy since the death of Uncle Ben.

The fight against the villains did not end. Spider constantly had to deal with the Rhino ( Rhino) second Vulture, Shocker ( Shocker), Kingpin (Kingpin), Predator (Prowler), and even with the vampire Morbius ( Morbius).

After the death of Gwen Stacy, Mary Jane provided Peter with great moral support. Soon Peter fell in love with her and even proposed, but Mary Jane refused and disappeared from Peter's life for several months.

After graduating from university, Peter continued his career as a photographer and superhero. Now he lived alone, and Aunt May decided to organize a nursing home in her home. For some time, the Spider had a partnership and romantic relationship with Black Cat ( Black cat). However, the Cat was only interested in Spider-Man and not Peter Parker, and they broke up.

Symbiote, the Avengers and the wedding

When the mysterious being known as the otherworldly (Beyonder) kidnapped numerous heroes and villains to organize "Secret Wars", Spider-Man was among them. During different battles Peter's suit was severely damaged and he decided to use an alien machine to repair his clothes. However, the mechanism did not work as expected, and the Spider acquired a black symbiotic suit. He also used this costume after Secret Wars, until he noticed that he (the costume) was behaving strangely. Then Peter turned to Reed Richards ( Reed Richards , who found out that this living suit gradually enslaves its wearer. Reed placed the suit in a special trap, but soon the symbiote escaped and merged with Spider-Man's longtime foe, reporter Eddie Brock ( Eddie Brock). So one of the most dangerous supervillains appeared - Venom ( Venom).

Spider-Man many times had to fight side by side with all the heroes of Manhattan, if not the world. One day, having learned that all members of the Avengers team receive financial assistance, he decided to join their ranks. Together with the Avengers, he eliminated the threat of Project Pegasus. However, in the end, the heroes refused to accept him into their team.

After some time, Mary Jane returned to Peter's life. After his duel with the supervillain Puma, she revealed that she figured out the secret of Parker's double life early in his career. They soon got married. Harry Osborne rented a loft for the newlyweds in the same building where he lived. At one time, Mary Jane's cousin, Christy, lived with the Parkers. However, Peter and Mary Jane subsequently moved to Queens with Aunt May due to financial difficulties.

Although the Avengers did not want to take on Spider-Man, they soon had to work together again to stop the supervillain Nebula ( Nebula) who wanted to destroy the entire universe. Unaccustomed to facing cosmic threats, the Spider was responsible for giving the Nebula the power of the Infinite Alliance ( Infinity Union ). Fortunately, the heroes managed to defeat the villainess, but the Avengers again refused to accept Spider-Man into the team. However, some time later, they still accepted it on a temporary basis.

Peter also briefly worked as a research assistant at Empire State University. During this period, he was granted the power of Captain Universe so that he could defeat numerous robots, including Guardians, designed to hunt mutants. With the threat removed, Captain Universe's power left Peter.

clone saga

When Aunt May had a heart attack (later she never recovered and died), Ben Riley, a Peter Parker clone created by the villain Jackal, came to see her. Peter and Ben once fought, and the Spider believed the clone was dead. However, now Riley has returned with quite friendly intentions. He created his own superhero costume and began to help Parker on his adventures. The Daily Bugle nicknamed him the Scarlet Spider, and he began to use that nickname. Together with Parker, he fought the evil clone of Spider-Man - Kane, as well as the Jackal. Mary Jane soon became pregnant and she and Peter moved to Portland, Oregon. Pete abandoned his alter ego in order to devote maximum time to his family.

After the second Doctor Octopus disgraced the Scarlet Spider name, Riley began to act as Spider-Man. At this time, Mary Jane went into labor and was taken to the hospital. This hospitalization was orchestrated by Norman Osborn, who kidnapped the newborn May Parker. The parents were told that the girl had died during childbirth. The Green Goblin then tried to kill Parker, but Ben Riley, who arrived just in time, threw himself on the villain's glider and sacrificed himself to save Peter.

Because Peter Parker's and Kane's fingerprints matched, it was Treetopper who was blamed for the murders committed by this first disfigured Spider clone. In order to continue his career as a crime fighter, Peter alternately changed costumes and different time called himself Hornet, Dusk, Prodigy and Ricochet. Having regained his good name, he again returned to his usual image. After some time, the hero of the Golden Age Black Miracle ( Black Marvel) distributed these four costumes to different teenagers and formed a team of them "Spinners" ( Slingers). Shortly after these events, the Avengers invited the Spider to rejoin their team, but he refused.

As it turned out later, Aunt May was still alive, and the Parkers buried her copy. Peter and Mary Jane returned to New York and settled in Manhattan. Peter promised Mary Jane to end Spider-Man's career, but at night he again went on exploits. Their marriage began to fall apart. Soon Mary Jane was in a plane crash, and everyone thought she was dead. After some time, it turned out that she still survived, but Mary Jane refused to live with Peter.

First Encounters with Ezekiel

Shortly after Mary Jane left for California, Peter met an unusual man named Ezekiel Sims. The fifty-six-year-old Ezekiel had exactly the same abilities as Spider-Man, with the exception of Spider-Sense, and was one of the co-owners of a large corporation. Sims' business partners also had abilities reminiscent of the properties of various animals, but Peter never got to know them.

Ezekiel hired the best private detectives on the planet to get all sorts of information about Spider-Man. He then compared the results of their independent investigations and came to the conclusion that Spider-Man is Peter Parker. Thus began their very strange friendship.

Ezekiel told Peter about his connection with the totemic source of power - the spider. Because of this close connection, he was an excellent candidate for the role of prey for an ancient mystical creature named Morlun ( Morlun). The same danger threatened Ezekiel himself, but he, like his superhuman friends, was a less pure source of totemic energy. Therefore, Sims suggested that Parker hide from Morlun in a specially equipped shelter. The spider refused and entered into an unequal battle with an energy vampire. When he realized that he could not defeat Morlun, Ezekiel came to his aid, who with an unexpected blow was able to break the monster's nose. In the ensuing fight, Ezekiel seemed to drown, but thanks to the obtained blood sample, Spider-Man was able to learn about Morlun's only weakness - susceptibility to radiation. He went to a nuclear power plant, where he repeated the experiment on himself that once turned him into a superman (this time the spider was not needed, Peter simply prepared a suitable radioactive solution). This enhanced all his abilities for several weeks. In addition, a lot of radiation got into the Spider's body, and now he easily coped with Morlun, after which the monster, weakened to the limit, was shot by his own assistant Dex ( Dex).

After some time, it turned out that Ezekiel had not died. He reappeared in the life of Spider-Man to warn of the approach of another extremely dangerous mystical creature- supervillains Shatra ( Shatra). In the future, he more than once supplied Peter with valuable information about various enemies of occult origin.

Book of Ezekiel

By the time Ezekiel's true intentions were revealed, Spider-Man's life had already improved somewhat: Mary Jane returned to him, and Aunt May learned Peter's secret. And then one day Ezekiel reappeared in New York to warn of the coming coming of another mystical threat - the Gatekeeper. As usual, Peter refused to hide and engaged the Gatekeeper, but was defeated. Waking up, the Spider found that he was in South America, and Ezekiel is about to sacrifice him. It turned out that Morlun, Shatra and other mystical villains were hunting for Ezekiel, and not for Peter at all. And the insidious Sims, with his warnings, each time forced him to get involved in the battle.

All these villains hunted for Ezekiel because he was not worthy of his power, obtained during an ancient Mayan ritual. Ezekiel saw only one way out - to sacrifice his "worthy" competitor, Spider-Man. However, already performing the ritual of sacrifice, Ezekiel changed his mind and gave himself up to be devoured by bloodthirsty spirits.

Changing abilities

After meeting a very strange supervillain, the Queen ( queen) Spider-Man gained the ability to shoot webs directly from his wrists, and his Spider-Sense and other abilities were greatly enhanced. But that was only the beginning. Soon Peter died and was reborn, which further strengthened his totemic connection with the spider, and at the same time his abilities.

Friendship with Iron Man and Civil War

After pacifying the riot at the Raft Prison, Spider-Man joined the New Avengers and befriended Iron Man. Stark took care of Peter in every possible way: he settled the Parker family in the Avengers Tower, supported the Spider during the difficult period of death and rebirth, gave him a unique Red and Gold Spider Armor, which allowed him to act even more efficiently. Tony considered Peter a very valuable ally and made an agreement with him: Pete tacitly became his main assistant.

When the government began talking about passing the Super Hero Registration Act, Spider-Man and Iron Man worked together to convince the politicians to reject the bill. This did not work, and Tony announced to the Spider that he would have to act in support of the Act in order to control the situation, being officers of S.H.I.E.L.D. Since Parker already knew he could trust Stark, he agreed.

At the start of the Civil War, Peter was one of Iron Man's staunchest supporters. He even agreed to publicly reveal the secret of his identity, and later helped Stark coordinate the actions of legal heroes and S.H.I.E.L.D. in the battle with Captain America's rebels. However, he became more and more doubtful that he had chosen the right path, and in the end decided to go over to Cap's side. Perhaps Iron Man would have managed to convince him, but the SHIELD agents burst in and opened fire, and the Spider escaped. SHIELD director Maria Hill sent several supervillains to capture him, in the battle with which the Spider Armor was almost completely destroyed. The wounded Spider was discovered by the Punisher, who took him to the rebel headquarters. Peter spent the rest of the war fighting for Cap.

One more day

When Captain America surrendered to the authorities and the Civil War ended, Spider-Man found himself in a very difficult position. In addition to being an outlaw, all supervillains now knew his real name. The Kingpin, who was in prison, sent an assassin who mortally wounded Aunt May. Peter and Mary Jane took her to the hospital, but the doctors' verdict was disappointing: she would live another day.

In desperation, Spider-Man turned to Iron Man for help. Tony replied that he would do nothing to help a state criminal, as he did not want to risk his newly acquired position as director of S.H.I.E.L.D. He defeated Peter and flew away. But when he returned to the Avengers Tower, he paid his butler Jarvis a bonus of several million dollars and asked him to dispose of it as he liked, hinting at the poor health of their mutual friend. Jarvis immediately went to the hospital, and May received the most the best treatment that can be bought with money. But even this was not enough.

When Peter was already desperate to save his aunt, Mephistopheles appeared to him and offered a deal. He promised to cure May and deal with the secret identity on the condition that Peter and Mary Jane were not remarried. The couple talked for a long time. Before Mephisto could do his dirty deed, Mary Jane made her deal with him: she would convince Peter to accept such conditions, and the demon would leave him alone forever.

Mephisto returned to the past, on the eve of Spider and MJ's wedding. In the form of a bird, he freed a criminal who had just been arrested thanks to our hero. This criminal again got to the Spider, as a result of which he was late for the wedding. Mary Jane decided that Peter didn't love her and broke up with him.

The problem with the secret identity was solved even more simply: shortly after the Civil War, at a meeting of the Illuminati, it was decided that Doctor Strange would simply erase her from the memory of the whole world. When Strange cast the spell, Peter disrupted that process, causing Mary Jane to still remember who her failed husband was.

Brand new day

So Peter Parker's world has changed a lot. Then began numerous difficulties with work, friends and enemies. Peter caused Jonah Jameson to have a heart attack, and his wife sold the Daily Bugle to tabloid kingpin Dexter Bennett, who fired Parker soon after. Peter also became friends with police officer Vin Gonzalez, who hates Spider-Man. Together they rented an apartment until Vin landed in jail on a ridiculous false charge. Win's place in the apartment was taken by his cousin Michelle, with whom Peter developed an unusual relationship - sometimes hateful, and sometimes romantic. Harry Osborn returned from oblivion, and the Spider met his girlfriend Lily Hollister (as it turned out later, she was the supervillain Menace) and Lily's girlfriend, Carly Cooper.

Numerous new enemies appeared - Threat ( Menace), Crazy (Screwball), Freak (Freak), Mr. Negative (Mr Negative), new Vulture ( texture) and many others. Do not give rest and old friends.

With job searches, Peter began to have real problems. For some time he worked part-time in the newspaper "Front Line" ( frontline) with his old friend Ben Urich, then spent a little time as one of Jonah Jameson's assistants, who was elected mayor of New York.

Dark Dominion

After the Secret Skrull Invasion, one of the most powerful people in America became the old enemy of the Spider, Norman Osborn, a former supervillain nicknamed the Green Goblin, and now the director of M.O.L.O.T.a, the leader of his own team of Avengers and the pseudo-hero Iron Patriot. Osborn decided to make a hero out of his son as well, making a lightweight armor model for Harry. But Harry did not want to become dependent on his hated father. He nearly killed Norman, but was stopped by Spider-Man.

shed

For quite a long time, Dr. Curt Connors managed to control himself and not turn into a Lizard. But at some point, the disease turned out to be stronger than him. The personalities of Connors and the Lizard merged, forming a monstrous creature named Shed. The body of the monster also underwent changes, and he became even stronger and more agile than the Lizard. In addition, he acquired the ability to telepathically influence the minds of people.

Shed did what the old Lizard would never have done - killed Billy Connors, Kurt's son. After that, he encountered Spider-Man and used his psionic powers for the first time: he tried to destroy the "monkey" (in his own words) component of Peter's mind, so that only the lizard mind remained, which in the first place would obey base animal instincts and the right of the strong. Fortunately, the Spider was able to resist this influence, but then Shed began to make numerous New Yorkers think in this way. The streets were in chaos.

In a hard fight, Spider-Man defeated Shed and freed people from his influence. But some felt that the primitive instincts and the right of the strong, proposed by the monster, are much more just than sanctimonious human laws. Together with Shed, they went down into the New York sewers and still live somewhere there.

Age of Heroes and the Death Hunt

After the Siege of Asgard, Spider-Man was finally recognized as a hero again. He joined the Avengers and New Avengers teams, and his popularity has steadily grown. However, not everyone is happy about this.

The Kravinov family (wife and children of Sergei Kravinov, the first Kraven the Hunter) decided to bring the deceased head of the family back to life. They began to catch all people with spider abilities in order to sacrifice them. When a clone of Peter Kane ( Kaine warned him about it, had already been caught by Madame Web ( Madame Web), Arachne (Arachne), Aranya (Arana) and Spider-Woman/Matty Franklin. Finally, Spider-Man was also caught (he was lured into a trap by the Chameleon, pretending to be Ezekiel resurrected from the dead).

To bring Kraven back to life, the ritual murder of the Spider and Matty Franklin was enough. However, Craven, who had risen from the dead, was not at all happy with his rebirth: he turned into a living corpse (though not decomposing). It turned out that the sacrificed Spider was not real: Kane stunned Peter and replaced him in a suit.

In a rage, Sasha Kravinova (Sergei's wife) inflicted a mortal wound on Madame Web. She died leaving her gift of clairvoyance to Julia Carpenter, Arachne. The real Spider-Man arrived at the Kravinov estate. He was extremely angry because of the death of his friends and was ready to kill Craven, but he was stopped by Arachne, who showed him an alternative future in which Peter began to kill enemies and turned into a real monster.

The defeated Kravinovs went to the Savage Land, where they are still. Peter buried Matty Franklin, Madame Web and Kane. On the grave of the latter is written: “Kane Parker. Brother."

One moment in time

Mary Jane came to Peter, and together they recalled the details of the deal with Mephistopheles. At the end of the conversation, Mary Jane kissed Peter and said that if they were not destined to be together, then he should not think only about her, because then he might not notice the true love of his life. They parted, promising not to interfere in each other's lives again.

Personality

After the death of Uncle Ben, Peter Parker's sense of responsibility has become much more acute. Often he blames himself in vain for something to which he has practically nothing to do. For example, he felt guilty that Electro, one of "his" villains, arranged a breakout from the Raft prison. However, when someone's life is in danger, Peter doesn't seem like such a depressed whiner at all and retains his sanity and wit.

Reputation

Spider-Man has gained immense notoriety among other superheroes as well as villains and civilians. As was once noted, half of Earth-616 loves the Spider, the other half hates it, but everyone talks about it. Aunt May once read on the Internet that Peter had saved the lives of over 10,000 people, not counting the defused bombs and the feats he had performed with the other heroes.

Among the villains, Spider-Man has a very special relationship. When in the Bar Without a Name ( Bar with No Name) bets were made on the victory of the Spider in the next battle, many villains claimed that the Spiderman always defeats the newcomers. And when Kolpak ( Hood ) was just starting his career, one of the villains laughed at him, saying: "You haven't even fought Spider-Man yet."

Powers and abilities

Forces

The original (they are the current) forces:

• Spider Sense: Spider-Man has a psychic sense that warns him of danger in advance with a tingle at the back of his skull. This allows him to avoid most injuries. Unfortunately, sometimes Peter's strong emotions prevent him from recognizing Spider Sense signals. The nature of the Sense is unknown: Ezekiel Sims called it mystical, but there are no reasonable scientific explanations. Signals can come both directly at the moment of danger, and minutes and even hours beforehim. The stronger the degree of threat, the sooner Peter learns about it. Intuition does not give an idea of ​​the nature of the threat, but indicates the exact direction from which it comes. Sudden and very dangerous circumstances can lead to a painful flair reaction. Peter's sixth sense works even when he is unconscious or asleep. It warns him of anything he considers dangerous. In particular, it reacts to the presence of observers or cameras that can fix Pete dressing up as Spider, but does not react to Aunt May, even if she is about to find out about her nephew's secret. Spider-Man is so well trained to recognize the signals of his ESP that even when opponents blind him, he can continue the fight, guided by the signals of Spider-Sense.
• Reception of radio signals: Spider Sense picks up radio waves of a certain frequency. Using this property of his, Peter designed the Spider Beacons ( Spider Tracers) emitting signals at that frequency. He uses radio beacons to keep track of anyone.
• Wall climbing: One of the changes in Peter's body after the spider bite happened in the cerebellum. Now he can mentally control the attraction between atoms using electrostatic forces. This violates the boundary between the surfaces of objects in contact at the subatomic level. Simply put, there is a diffusion of several upper layers of atoms of different objects. It is not yet known how Spider-Man's mind can influence the behavior of atoms. Until now, the ability to change the strength of their attraction to each other was limited to controlling the attraction between objects and Peter's body (mainly hands and feet). With this ability, he can hold a load weighing several tons "docked" to his fingers.
• Superhuman Strength: The special structure of the muscles allows Spider-Man to lift a load weighing up to ten tons. In combat, he is forced to hold back his blows (unless he is fighting someone of his equal or greater endurance). Otherwise, his blows would be fatal for a person without superpowers. He has demonstrated that he is strong enough to knock out a man with a simple slap to the head. Also during the Secret Invasion, in a fight in the Savage Land, he defeated the Tyrannosaurus rex with one blow. Of course, Spider's physical strength extends to his legs, allowing him to make huge jumps. On the day he was bitten by the Spider, Peter nearly got hit by a car, but escaped by jumping about ten meters vertically into the air (which is how he discovered his powers). It should be noted that at that moment, his powers had not yet developed to their full potential.
• Superhuman Speed: Spider-Man is able to run and move at speeds many times faster than even the most trained person can. He has shown that he can easily outrun a car on foot, but prefers to travel on webs.
• Superhuman Durability: In Peter's enhanced musculature, fatigue toxins are produced at a much slower rate than in a normal human. This allows him to operate at the peak of his powers for long hours. His breathing apparatus is also vastly improved: he is almost never seen out of breath, and Spider is able to hold his breath for more than eight minutes.
• Superhuman Stamina: Spider-Man's body is significantly more resistant to various injuries than other people. He is able to survive exposure that would seriously injure or kill an ordinary human with little or no discomfort. If the Spider flexes his super-strong muscles, a person without superpowers can do almost no harm to him with his bare hands. Peter himself said that he tries to dodge the blows of opponents who do not have at least the same strength and endurance, otherwise they can dislocate or break their wrist.
• Superhuman Agility: Parker's agility, balance and coordination go far beyond human limits. Its connective tissues and tendons are about twice as flexible and mobile, but also more durable. The spider can break any Olympic record for exercises on gymnastic apparatus such as rings, parallel bars, etc.
• Superhuman sense of balance: Spider-Man can balance in any position imaginable and on any support, even the smallest and narrowest.
• Superhuman reflexes: the speed of all Peter's conditioned and unconditioned reflexes is about forty times faster than that of an ordinary person. Combined with Spider Sense, they allow him to dodge almost any attack. In some instances, Spider-Man has been shown to dodge bullets with just his reflexes, without using his Senses at all.
• Regenerative Healing Factor: While Spider's regeneration isn't as noticeable as Wolverine or Deadpool's, it's powerful enough to recover from major injuries, fractures, and extensive tissue damage in a surprisingly short amount of time. After gaining his power, he soon found that his poor eyesight improved and the need to wear glasses was no longer necessary. During the battle with the villain named the Masked Marauder, Spider-Man was completely blinded, but after two days he saw everything perfectly (although his eyes were easily irritated for a whole day). Its accelerated metabolism provides the highest resistance to drugs: the effects of even the largest doses quickly wear off without causing addiction. During a meeting with Roy ( swarm) Peter got thousands of bee stings, but the next day he was completely fine. His resistance to and recovery rate from other toxins and diseases varies, but is generally significantly higher than that of normal humans. Spider-Man was able to fully repair his eyes from the acid spat in his face by the new Vulture, though the extent of the damage may have been lower than he first thought.
• Protected Identity: Thanks to the magic of Doctor Strange, no one can accidentally or intentionally find out the secret of Spider-Man's identity, unless Peter himself wants it. Any evidence that the Spider is Peter Parker (even direct evidence in the mass media times of the Civil War) are either incomprehensible to people or lead to incorrect conclusions. Finding out who is behind the mask is possible only if Peter himself tells it.

Lost Powers:

Mutation after meeting with the Queen endowed the Spider with the following powers:

• Enhanced Strength: Now the maximum weight of the load that he could lift was not 10, but 15 tons.
• Telepathic communication with arthropods: The developed Spider-Sense helped to communicate with spiders and insects, using them as a remote source of information, and even control their behavior. One day, the spiders voluntarily hid an unconscious Spider-Man from the Shatra, and thus saved him.
• Biological/organic web production: Peter's wrists had glands that could produce and release webs. This web had practically the same properties as those produced from containers, only it disintegrated not in two hours, but in a week.

After death and rebirth, Peter's powers increased again:

• Even More Strength: The new limit of the lifted mass was the mark of 20 tons.
• Enhanced Agility, Stamina, Speed ​​and Reflexes: In the fight with Mysterio, the Spider noted a significant improvement in all these indicators.
• Enhanced Spider Sense: Peter was able to perceive everything that was happening around him, and not just sources of danger.
• Night vision: Spider-Man has learned to see in the dark in the presence of at least the weakest light source.
• Feeling of vibration and air currents through hair and cobwebs: This ability allowed him to find his way out of the rubble of a collapsed building.
• Improved Healing Factor: Recovery after any damage to the body began to occur several times faster.
• Sleep Healing: This is how his rebirth happened: Peter went into an unconscious state, twisted a cocoon, hibernated, healed and received new powers. His mysterious "disease" and short-term loss of superpowers were the first attempts of the body to enter this state. It is unknown if Peter can repeat this at least one more time.
• Sting:Spider-Man had sharp, retractable stingers on his wrists. They released a polyamine poison capable of paralyzing an adult for several hours. And for the almost invulnerable Morlun, the wounds from these stings proved to be fatal.

Capabilities

• Unbending Willpower: Over the years, Peter has led double life, full of losses and defeats, but this did not break him, and from short moments of weakness he emerged as an even stronger person. His will was strong enough to resist the attempts of Venom, and later Doctor Octopus's nanobots and Shed's telepathy, to subdue his mind.
