Peter Parker ©

Hey there boys and girls, my name is Peter Parker but a lot of people know me as your friendly neighborhood Spider-man. Here is a little bit of how I got to be everyone's faviorite web head. While attending a public exhibition on safe nuclear power; little ole me was bitten by a spider that had been exposed to a deadly dose of radiation. Instead of killing over from the bite I gained the proportionate strength and agility of a spider. Pretty cool huh? Trying to cash in on my new found abilities I became a masked professional wrestler - a performance which attracted the attention of an entertainment agent. After completing a television performance in my masked identity I failed to stop a fleeing thief; a decision which would in the future haunt me forever. A few days later, I arrived at my Queens, New York home to discover that my uncle Ben had been killed by a burglar. Distraught by the death of my beloved guardian I vowed to capture the criminal. Easily apprehended the killer, I recognized the criminal as the thief I allowed to escape at the television studio. Realizing that my inaction inadvertently doomed my uncle, I took to heart the advice that with great power comes great responsibility. Vowing to honor Uncle Ben's memory I pledged my life to fighting crime and injustice. Armed with my superhuman abilities and scientific genius I struggle with sinister villains, making financial ends meet, and maintaining some semblance of a normal life while fulfilling his destiny as the Amazing Spider-Man.With great power, comes great responsibility!
