It does just what it says on the tin |
|
Spider-man, Spider-man
Does whatever a spider can
Spins a web, any size
Catches thieves, just like flies
Look out! Here comes the Spider-man!
|
Is he strong? Listen, Bud!
He's got radioactive blood.
Can he swing from a thread?
Take a look overhead.
Hey there, there goes the Spider-man!
|
|
|
|
In the chill of night,
At the scene of the crime
Like a streak of light
He arrives just in time
|
Spider-man, Spider-man
Friendly neighborhood Spider-man
Wealth and fame, he's ignored
Action is his reward
|
|
|
|
To him, life is a great big bang-up
Wherever there's a hang-up
You'll find the Spider-man!

For over 30 years, Spider-Man has been one of the world's most popular superhero, wielding his amazing spider-powers and web-slinging weaponry in breathtaking battles with fearsome, larger-than-life foes like Venom, The Lizard, and Scorpion. As created by Stan Lee, The Amazing Spider-Man was the first comic book to present the Superhero as Everyman.
This series asks what would really happen if an ordinary guy got super-powers? The ordinary guy is Peter Parker, a nineteen-year-old student from Forest Hills, New York. And despite his ability to crawl straight up walls with the strength, speed, and agility of a spider, he still can't remember when he makes a date with Mary Jane or keep from catching the common cold. Even with his near-clairvoyant spider-sense, he can't find his socks and misplaces his camera.
Spider-Man is coming-of-age story of Peter Parker who is learning that true heroism lies less in deeds of valor than in the simple act of getting through the day without compromising his principles or hurting his loved ones.
