Origins
Spiderman was created when Peter Parker, visiting a laboratory for a field trip, was bitten by a radioactive spider. This gave him radioactive superpowers. He began webslinging, using a serum he had invented with his keen scientific mind. He also tried professional wrestling for cash. One day, he declined to stop a thief who was getting away. "Not my job," he figured. But later that same day, that thief killed his beloved Uncle Ben. From that day on, he pledged to protect the innocent and stop the wicked.
