Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is available for purchase on home video. Now that you are done watching this amazing, Oscar-winning film, it is time for you to learn a few things about your favorite wall-crawler. These facts focus on the Peter Parker version of Spider-Man. Where are the Miles Morales facts? Oh, they are coming… Enjoy!
He wears a mask to hide his fear
Peter Parker was a 15-year-old kid when he got his powers. The decision to fight crime came after he failed to stop a robber who ended up killing his uncle.
Spider-Man risks his life to save any and everyone that he can and with that comes a lot of fear. This is something he can’t allow his enemies to see. Hence the Iconic mask and the quips. He knows that someone he needs to save is having the worst day of their life, so he needs to mask his fear.
He shares an arch enemy with Daredevil in the Kingpin
Wilson Fisk is a busy man. So busy that he is the villain to two superheroes. The funny part is that both Spider-Man and Daredevil get a different version of Fisk all the way down to his henchmen.
When Daredevil fights Kingpin, his #2 is Bullseye and is supported by The Hand. While Spider-man takes on Kingpin when he is teamed with Hammerhead and Rhino. It’s fun to think about.
Spider-Man gets around with the ladies
Friendly neighborhood Spider-Man is a worthy title because Spider-Man has had a lot of lady friends.
These include, but aren’t limited to, Gwen Stacy, Mary Jane Watson, Betty Brant, Black Cat (Felicia Hardy), Anna Maria Marconi, Black Widow, Carol Danvers, Carlie Cooper, Debra Whitman, Marrow, Michele Gonzales…
Yeah, he gets around.
He joined the Avengers for the paycheck
Peter Parker is relatable on so many levels because he’s a remarkable person who is extremely mediocre in his personal life.
Until recently, he’s been struggling with money for a while. When approached by Iron Man and Captain America to join the Avengers, all Stark had to say was “we have money.” to which Spider-Man broke down in tears saying “Oh, thank God.”
Spider-Man is Barack Obama’s favorite superhero
During Barrack Obama’s run for President, he mentioned his fondness for Spider-Man and named the wall-crawler his favorite superhero.
Marvel comics returned the compliment and put the President in a Spider-Man issue where Peter Parker attends the inauguration of the 44th president.
