Because of a bite taken from a radioactive spider, young college student Peter Parker has the ability to climb walls, to sense danger, and to shoot webs like a spider. He made a costume for a wrestling match, a burglar shot Peter's Uncle Ben, Peter went after the burglar, and killed him. Peter changed his costume to the costume we know today. And that's the origin of Spider-Man.

Get the Spider-Man mug.Spider-Man is a fictional character, a comic book superhero who appears in comic books published by Marvel Comics. In the comics Spider-Man is often referred to as "Spidey", "web-slinger", "wall-crawler", or "web-head". Created by writer-editor Stan Lee and writer-artist Steve Ditko, he first appeared in Amazing Fantasy #15 (August 1962). Lee and Ditko conceived the character as an orphan being raised by his Aunt May and Uncle Ben, and as a teenager, having to deal with the normal struggles of adolescence in addition to those of a costumed crimefighter. Spider-Man's creators gave him super strength and agility, the ability to cling to most surfaces, shoot spider-webs using wrist-mounted devices of his own invention which he called "web-shooters", and react to danger quickly with his "spider-sense", enabling him to combat his foes.
