Applied English 4th & 5th Hours
Origin• Spiderman's alter-ego is
Peter Parker.
• Before he became Spiderman, Peter was a typical high school "nerd."
• When he is not fighting crime as Spidey, Peter takes college classes and works part-time jobs (pizza, photography, etc.)
• Peter Parker gained his spider-powers when he was bit by a radioactive spider at Oscorp.
• He begins to fight smaller crimes after his Uncle Ben is murdered by a thug.
• Later, he saves New York City from supervillains such as the Green Goblin and Venom.
Strengths and Abilities• Spiderman can stick to most surfaces, as well as
shoot super-adhesive webs from his wrists (for swinging or fighting).
• His super-human strength and agility makes him 15 times stronger and faster than the average human.
• "Spider-Sense" allows Spiderman to react to incoming attacks.
• Peter Parker is also incredibly intelligent, allowing Spiderman to outsmart enemies who are stronger than him.
Weaknesses
• Despite his super-strength, most of Spiderman's enemies are much bigger and stronger than him.
• Similarly, his webs are not as effective against metal or armored foes.
• Peter Parker's biggest personality flaw is that he is highly emotional – Spiderman often makes poor decisions when his loved ones are involved. In several different series, he gives up or loses his powers.
Allies and Enemies• Spiderman has fought alongside the X-Men,
Avengers, and Fantastic 4 in the past.
• His main ally is a woman named “Black Cat,” a former thief who fights crime in NYC’s darkest areas.
• Spiderman has the most enemies of all Marvel heroes.
• His most well-known enemies are the Green Goblin, Venom, Lizard, Doctor Octopus, and Electro.
Fun Fact!• Peter Parker is not the only
Spiderman, according to one comic series. In the series, a villain named Jackal makes two clones of Peter Parker.
• The first clone, Kaine Parker, becomes evil (figure in black).
• The second clone, Ben Reilly, becomes the heroic Scarlet Spider (figure in red and blue).
