Who am I? You sure you want to know? The story of my life is not for the faint of heart. If somebody said it was a happy little tale... If somebody told you I was just your average, ordinary guy, not a care in the world... somebody lied. But let me assure you, this, like any story worth telling, is all about a girl. That girl. The girl next door. Mary Jane Watson. The woman I've loved since before I even liked girls.

Whatever life holds in store for me, I will never forget these words: "With great power comes great responsibility." This is my gift, my curse. Who am I? I'm Spider-Man.
„

She looks at me every day. Mary Jane Watson. Oh, boy. If she only knew how I felt about her. But she can never know. I made a choice once to live a life of responsibility. A life she can never be a part of. Who am I? I'm Spider-Man, given a job to do. And I'm Peter Parker, and I, too, have a job.

It's me, Peter Parker. Your friendly neighborhood... you know. I've come a long way from being the boy who was bit by a spider. Back then, nothing seemed to go right for me. Now… ...people really like me. The city is safe and sound. Guess I've had something to do with that. My uncle Ben would be proud. I still go to school, top of my class.

Whatever comes our way, whatever battle we have raging inside us, we always have a choice. My friend Harry taught me that. He chose to be the best of himself. It’s the choices that make us who we are, and we can always choose to do what’s right.
Remember Ben Parker? The old man you shot down in cold blood!?

It's funny you should say that, 'cause I was looking through some old photos, and looks very, uh, similar. You're trash, Brock. Your picture is a fake. You want forgiveness? Get religion.

I'm done trying to convince you. No, he despised you. You were an embarrassment for him. Look at little Goblin junior. Gonna cry?

The night Ben died, I hunted down the man who I thought did it. I wanted him dead... I got what I wanted. It didn't make it better. It took me a long time to... learn to get through that darkness.

Are you afraid that I'm going to turn into some kind of criminal? Quit worrying about me, okay? Something's different, I'll figure it out. Stop lecturing me, please!

Staying away from you. That's a cute outfit. Did your husband give it to you?
Peter Benjamin Parker was a brilliant but socially inept student. After being orphaned Peter moved in with his Uncle Ben and Aunt May. While attending a field trip Peter was bitten by a genetically modified spider and gained spider-like abilities turning him into the one and only Spider-Man.
This dropdown contains the synopsis of Peter Parker’s story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!
He then used his powers to become a masked wrestler to earn money and impress his next-door neighbor Mary Jane Watson. However, when the owner of the wrestling ring refused to pay him he allowed a thief (who had just robbed the owner) to escape. Unbeknownst that thief would go on to kill his Uncle Ben. Overcome with guilt Peter remembered his Uncle Ben's words of wisdom, "With great power comes great responsibility", which inspired Peter to become Spider-Man. While as Spider-Man Peter got a job as a photographer for the Daily Bugle. The owner J. Jonah Jameson ironically had a deep hatred towards the web-slinger however. Peter's close friend Harry's father would transform himself into the Green Goblin during a lab accident. Peter would confront the Goblin unaware he was Norman Osborn. The two battled at a parade where Osborn attacked but Peter managed to drive him off. Later Osborn asked him if he would join him and help him take over New York. When Peter declined, Osborn told him that eventually, the people of the city would turn on him. Afterward, Osborn learned Peter's dual identity and attacked Aunt May. Enraged, Peter confronted him and learns that Osborn had kidnapped Mary Jane. In the battle that came Norman was killed and before dying asked Peter not to tell Harry. Peter then brought his body to Osborn's home in time for Harry to see him. He fled as Harry vowed vengeance. Peter attended Norman's funeral declaring himself as Spider-Man.
Two years later, Peter faced new challenges as he struggled to cope with "the gift and the curse" of his powers while balancing his dual identities as the elusive superhero Spider-Man and the life as a college student. Relationships that Peter held most dear were now in danger of unraveling as he clashed with the multi-tentacled villain Dr. Otto Octavius, also known as "Doc Ock", his old idol who had been driven insane thanks to an explosion that killed his wife and melded the mechanical tentacles of his invention to his body. Peter's life-long yearning for MJ became even stronger as he fought the impulse to abandon his secret life and declare his love. In the meantime, MJ had moved on with her life. She embarked on an acting career and had a new man in her life whom she intended to marry. Peter's relationship with his best friend Harry Osborn has been overshadowed by Harry's growing vendetta against Spider-Man, whom he held responsible for his father's death. After a fight with Octavius plus all the emotions caused Peter to begin to lose his Spider powers. Eventually, he decided he no longer wished to be Spider-Man. However, when Doc Ock kidnapped Mary Jane to bait Spider-Man, Peter had no choice but to accept his fate and harness all his superhero talents to stop the diabolical madman Doc Ock's quest for infinite nuclear power. Peter met Ock at his base and the two battled. Peter defeated him and managed to convince Octavius to regain control over his arms. Otto later sacrificed his life to stop the unstable nuclear core. Afterward, Peter revealed himself as Spider-Man so Mary Jane called off her wedding and decided she wanted to be with him.
Later life went easier for him. The city began to embrace him for the first time in his career, he was once again the top of his class and he was planning to propose to Mary Jane. However, his friend Harry who had learned his secret attacked him. Peter was forced to defend himself and knock Harry out. Peter would learn that the head injury would give Harry amnesia. Around this time, he discovered that the real killer of his uncle was Flint Marko, who later became the Sandman. While on a date with Mary Jane, a alien symbiote attached itself to Peter Parker's costume. It increased his strength but influenced his behavior for the worst. He fought Marko again and seemingly killed him. Once Harry regained his memory Peter and he fought, this time ending with Peter disfiguring Harry's face with a pumpkin bomb.
After some time, Peter got rid of the symbiotic costume when he learned it was slowly corrupting him, but the symbiote would survive after nearly being destroyed by Peter and bonded itself to Eddie Brock, creating the monster called Venom. The monstrous Venom kidnapped Mary Jane, and when Spider-Man attempted to save her he was brutally beaten by the combined powers of Venom and Sandman. He was saved by Harry, who had seen the error of his ways and decided to help Peter fight Sandman and Venom. When Venom attempted to impale Peter, Harry jumped in front of the glider, mirroring the way his father died. Peter then used one of Harry's pumpkin bombs that ended up annihilating both the symbiote and Eddie Brock (whom Peter tried to save despite everything that Brock had put him through). In the end, he forgave Marko for killing his uncle.
