A
bout Peter Parker & Spiderman:
Orphaned as a baby when his parents were killed overseas in a plane crash as U.S. government spies, only child
Peter Parker was raised by his elderly Uncle Ben and Aunt May. Academically gifted, Peter displayed an uncanny
affinity for science that was nothing short of genius. Socially, however, he was painfully shy and the target of
much cruelty by his peers at Midtown High School. Attending a public science exhibit when Peter was 15-years old, he was bitten on the hand by a radioactive spider accidentally irradiated by a particle beam, empowering Peter with the arachnid's proportional strength and agility, and the ability to cling to almost any surface. Most incredibly, he had gained a sixth sense that provided him with early warning of impending danger. Disguised, Peter tested his new-found abilities defeating professional wrestler Crusher Hogan in the ring, and earning some cash. Using his scientific powers, a costume, and a new name, Spider-Man was born. Unconcerned with the rest of the world, he vowed to use his powers only to take care of himself and his aunt and uncle. Soon after, he allowed a burglar that he could have easily restrained to run past him and escape. Peter then learned later on that his beloved Uncle Ben had been shot and killed. When Spider-Man confronted the killer hiding in the old Acme Warehouse at the waterfront, he discovered to his horror that his uncle's murderer was the burglar he apathetically allowed to pass. Consumed with guilt, he became aware at last that with great power comes great responsibility, just as his beloved uncle had once said. To help his Aunt May with finances, Peter took a freelance job at the Daily Bugle selling pictures of himself as Spider-Man to publisher J. Jonah Jameson. Despite Spider-Man rescuing his son, astronaut John Jameson, from a malfunctioning space capsule, Jonah used his newspaper to publicly condemn Spider-Man as a menace.
About Venom !
Spidey's 1st appearance:
The character of Spiderman first appeared in Amazing Fantasy #15 in 1962, as created and written by Marvel Comics publisher Stan Lee and drawn by Steve Ditko. The character only appeared in one of several stories in that issue but response was overwhelming. (Interestingly Lee was warned initially against creating such a character on the supposition that people are frightened by spiders). Within less than a year Spiderman had earned his own comic-book, Amazing Spider-Man, and went upward from there to become the single most popular character in the Marvel Comics canon, the only character whose popularity was ever in danger of challenging Marvel's rival DC Comics's characters of Superman and Batman. Moreover Lee's dictum of creating superheroes with real world problems proved a new spin that brought superheroics down to size and created a new inwardly drawn superhero.
F
amily & Friends:
Mary Jane Watson:
Peter, expecting a dowdy girl, was stunned by Mary Jane's beauty and exhuberant charm. Mary Jane remembered
a bookish, bespectacled nerd, and never imagined the confident young college student Peter had become. Mary Jane dated Peter a few times, and became part of his circle of friends, joining Harry Osborn, Gwen Stacy, and
Flash Thompson. But Peter and Gwen fell deeply in love, and Mary Jane could offer no such commitment. Instead,
Mary Jane began casually dating Harry, though she flirted shamelessly with Peter. But when Harry's relationship with Mary Jane suffered greatly, and it never truly recovered. With the death of Gwen Stacy and Norman Osborn, Mary Jane's friendship with Peter remained true, and she comforted him through his loss. Harry meanwhile had become increasingly unstable, and Mary Jane abandoned him completely. Over time, Peter began to realise that there was more to Mary Jane than the "party girl" persona she affected, Peter eventually proposed to Mary-Jane. They married, and shared many moments of great happiness. But the reality of being wedded to a super-hero was far more demanding than Mary Jane ever imagined. Mary Jane Watson is the guiding light in Peter Parker's life, and their love has overcome countless obstacles.
Ben Parker:
When Ben's brother Richard and his wife Mary died, Ben and May decided to raise their son Peter as their own. Peter loved his uncle and aunt more than anyone in the world. Ben was killed when a burglar who he accidently surprised, causing the burglar to shoot him. His death sparked the transformation of Peter Parker into Spider-Man.
May Parker (Aunt May):
May and Ben Parker took full custody of their nephew Peter after his parents were killed in a plane crash. Later on, Ben was killed in a burglary, leaving May and Peter all by themselves, as she continued to raise him as her own son.
Harry Osborn:
Harry Osborn was perhaps Peter Parker's first true friend. His upbringing was radically different from Peter as his life was rich in financial assets, but lacking the nurturing warmth of the Parker home. He was the son of the ruthless industrialist, Norman Osborn, founder of Osborn Industries and Oscorp.
Gwen Stacy:
Gwen Stacy was Peter Parker's first true love. Next to the death of his Uncle Ben, no death has weighed as heavily upon Spider-Man's shoulders as her passing.
J. Jonah Jameson:
When Spider-Man became a crimefighter, Jameson owner of the Daily Bugle vowed to expose him as a publicity-seeking scofflaw, and not even the rescue of John his son from a space flight disaster dissuaded him. J. Jonah relies on photos from Peter Parker, not knowing he was employing Spider-Man himself.
Joseph "Robbie" Robertson:
Robbie rose through the ranks to become the Bugle's city editor and one of the city's most respected journalists. He formed a close friendship with the Bugle's publisher and editor-in-chief, J. Jonah Jameson, supplying a calming yin to Jameson's raging yang. Though a good newspaperman at heart with a strong social conscience, Jameson has often allowed his personal biases to compromise his journalistic perspective, but Robbie's counterbalancing views have kept the Bugle's news coverage relatively fair (unlike many of Jameson's editorials). Jameson and Robertson have sharply differing views on super heroes in general and Spider-Man in particular. Jameson tends to regard costumed vigilantes with suspicion and contempt, and is consumed by a jealous loathing of Spider-Man, not knowing the hero is secretly young Bugle photographer Peter Parker. Robbie has a more objective view of New York's super heroes, judging them by their actions, and has aided Spider-Man and other heroes on many occasions. Robbie has also been something of a fatherly mentor to Peter Parker, and has often seemed aware of Peter's dual identity; but he has never voiced, exploited or acted on this knowledge.
Flash Thompson:
Handsome and naturally athletic, young Eugene Thompson seemed to have a bright future ahead of him, but hidden
darkness in his family set the stage for what became a life of wasted potential. His father, popular policeman
Harrison Thompson, had a secret drinking problem, and it was all the Thompson family could do to hold him together
at times. Alternating between anger and despair, the self-loathing Harrison took out his frustrations on his family,
often treating Eugene abusively. Eugene, in turn, became a neighborhood bully, taking out his own frustrations on weaker and less popular children. One of his earliest and longest-running targets was Peter Parker, a bookish boy who later became the masked adventurer.
