	Spider-Man - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		Peter Benjamin Parker was born to Richard Parker and his wife Mary Fitzpatrick-Parker, both of whom were agents of the CIA and later of S.H.I.E.L.D. (a fictional secret agency).

		Thus prepared, Peter Parker appeared as Spider-Man on national television and was an immediate media sensation.
		Parker had promised Mary Jane to give up his Spider-Man identity, but he would continually sneak out at night as Spider-Man. Their marriage began to strain, in part because of a new modeling career of Mary Jane and in part because Parker's sneaking was discovered.
		Parker was told again that Spider-Man may not be suited for Avengers membership, although later he was inducted into their number on a provisional basis.

	SPIDER-MAN: Bio
		Civilian Occupation: Peter is a newspaper photographer for the Daily Bugle; he uses a specially timed camera to snap pictures of Spider-Man's crime-fighting exploits.
		Peter also invented two devices to complement his powers—mechanical, wrist-mounted webshooters, which shoot a sticky "webbing" compound, and "spider-tracers"—small, bug-like electronic devices that enable him to secretly follow opponents to their lairs.
		One night, a fugitive ran past Peter on the street, and Peter ignored a policeman's plea to help catch the man. Later, Peter learned that the criminal had murdered his beloved Uncle Ben.

	Press Releases - Gotham Comics
		Readers of this series will not see the familiar Peter Parker of Queens under the classic Spider-Man mask, but rather a new hero — a young, Indian boy named Pavitr Prabhakar.
		As Spider-Man, Pavitr leaps around rickshaws and scooters in Indian streets, while swinging from monuments such as the Gateway of India and the Taj Mahal.
		Spider-Man India interweaves the local customs, culture and mystery of modern India, with an eye to making Spider-Man’s mythology more relevant to this particular audience.

	Amazing Spider-Man Masterworks Vol. 1
		What really set this comic apart from the others, and what allowed it to blossom from such humble beginnings,is the sense of humanity Stan and Steve poured into Peter Parker.
		In Peter Parker, Stan and Steve made the "thought bubble" almost Shakespearean instature, as that is where the real story is being told: Peter Parker is constantly in doubt, working things outin his mind and trying to do the right thing.
		And Stan and Steve develop the "Spider Sense," the unique ability that lets ol' webhead know of danger that lurks under every manhole, down every alley, and up every rooftop.

	Inside Pulse v2 .::. Spectacular Spider-Man #27 Review
		Save for the recent (and best forgotten) 'Sins Remembered' story-line, Spectacular Spider-Man and Peter Parker : Spider-Man before it have served as vehicle for Jenkins' personal take on Peter Parker and the people close to him in his life.
		You find yourself caring deeply about the people in his best stories, whether it be Peter remembering trips to the baseball with Uncle Ben, or a sick young man watching a battle between Spider-Man and an old foe on a rooftop.
		This final issue, more than anything, serves as a coda or epilogue to the time that Paul Jenkins and his artists have spent fooling around with the life of Peter Parker.

	Spider-Man Unlimited : Character Bios
		Naoko's practice brings a mix of the city to her doorstep, giving her more knowledge of what goes on in the lower levels of society than anyone else, which can often be a help to Peter and Spider-Man.
		Peter Parker rescues seven-year-old Shayne Yamada-Jones from a Machine Man. Shayne's mom, Naoko, witnesses the rescue, which is how Peter gets his apartment.
		Much to his mother's (and occasionally Peter's) dismay, Shayne is all too happy to unquestioningly embrace the mysterious Peter Parker as his new father figure.

	OAFE - Secret Identity Spider-Man review
		The last time we got a Peter Parker figure in the regular Spider-Man lines, it was based on the then-current animated series.
		Learning that with great power comes great responsibility, Peter became Spider-Man to protect those who could not protect themselves.
		In the comics, Peter Parker is an adult, married to Mary Jane and teaching at a New York City high school.

	Spider-Man (2002) A Hollywood Jesus Movie Review
		This favoring of Peter Parker over actual son Harry Parker by the man who becomes the Green Goblin sets up amazing drama and tension.
		On a school trip, during which Peter and his classmates are given a science demonstration on spiders, Peter is bitten by a genetically altered spider.
		After discovering these powers, Peter appears in a televised wrestling match and, armed with his new spider strength, wins the match in record time.

	Skip Westcott (Peter Parker foe)
		Skip's fate following Peter's revelation is not revealed (Similarly, Judy vanishes from the main story.); one would presume that the Parkers at least spoke to Skip's mother about her son's crime, but the story rightly chooses to focus on not the perpetrators but the victims of child molestation and how they should react.
		Skip is carefully portrayed as being several years older than the pre-teen Peter, perhaps to prevent any implication that Skip was a gay youth attracted to Peter as an equal; evidently Jim Salicrup felt that Aunt May and Uncle Ben would've been concerned from the outset about an adult man befriending their nephew.
		Powers/Abilities: None, although Skip was intelligent enough to engage honor student Peter Parker in hours of discussion about "all of life's important problems."

	SPIDER-MAN (2002)
		The performances in the film are dominated by Tobey Maguire's wonderful turn as Peter Parker/Spider-Man. Maguire makes the role his own so much so that it is difficult to imagine anyone else in the role.
		In a nutshell, school bookworm, Peter Parker, is bitten by a genetically enhanced spider and finds himself endowed with the proportionate strength and speed of the arachnid.
		His nemesis in the film is the deadly Green Goblin - whose alter ego - Norman Osborn, is the father of Peter's closest friend.

	Comixfan Forums - SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN #27 REVIEW
		The man behind the mask is important but if the book was just called Peter Parker with him just being Peter it would not sell many copies.
		When Peter Parker morphed into Spectacular, something was lost: paired with Humberto Ramos and a series of artists not very suitable to that kind of low key storytelling, the stories as a whole suffered as both writer and artist tried and often failed to adapt.
		After a year’s worth of declining quality, including way too long in the Avengers Diassembled stable and an unfortunate arc by Samm Barnes and Scot Eaton, this issue, the last for both Jenkins and the series, represents a return to form and a fitting end for Jenkins’s involvement with the character.

	The Superhero Hype! Boards - The Spider Man cartoons
		Despite the limited animation and the fact that this series is meant for kids, "Spider-Man" (1967) also got a lot of things right: the character designs for Peter Parker (a combination of Ditko and Romita Sr.), J. Jonah Jameson, and most of the villains is straight of the comic books of the time.
		The voices are a lot of fun (loved how Peter's voice would drop a few octaves when he'd change into Spider-Man), Spider-Man actually gets to throw punches (unlike his 90's counterpart), and the theme song is classic.
		But some of the animation looked bizarre ("Thunderbirds" meets a Rankin/Bass "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer" special by way of Pixar), there were hardly any classic villains, and MTV tried way too hard to "hip up" the characters to painfully obvious levels (chronic coffee drinking; Peter Parker looking and acting like a wised-up, cool hipster).

	BUZZSCOPE :: Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man #1
		Simply a typical day for Peter Parker, as your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man has to contend with a new and deadly opponent named Tracer, self-defense lessons with Captain America, and some disturbing news that will change his life in a distinctly negative manner.
		The start of a 4-month Spider-Man event that crosses over all three core Spider books and promises to forever change the lives of Peter Parker and everyone close to him!
		He's just this force of nature- this man-beast combination that hungers for the spider.

	Spider-Man (2002)
		At first Peter decides to use his new powers for show, but after a terrible tragedy, Peter decides to use his powers to stop crime and help people, by becoming Spiderman.
		Peter Parker is a typical 18 year old who is smart, but is picked on by Jocks and is too shy to talk to the beautiful Mary Jane Watson who lives next door.
		Goofs: Crew or equipment visible: When Peter gets bitten by the spider, the camera pans over to a tv screen showing the spider DNA.

	The Amazing Spider-Man Biography at People Search Free
		According to the story line, Spider-Man is the alter ego of student Peter Parker; an accidental bite from a radioactive spider gave Parker the arachnid's relative strength and agility plus a tingling "spider sense" for danger.

	Spidey Kicks Butt - The Ultimate in Spider-Man Commentary
		Originally the story was going to end with the birth of the baby and close the book on Peter Parker's Spider-Man career, since after all, he was the clone at the time.
		In fact, in the back-up story to Webspinners #1, which was Peter and Gwen’s last night together before her death, his "soft, clean, dated" artwork perfectly captured the feel for what probably was the last night of whatever innocence Peter Parker had left, before his life was irrevocably altered.
		None of the other spider writers at the time knew where he was going with that character either, and Tom DeFalco later finally brought the character to as logical a conclusion as possible and jettisoned him.

	Mary Jane Watson - MarvelDatabase
		Knowing that Peter was Spider-Man, when a news bulletin about the escape of the Rhino interrupted the music program the pair were watching, MJ suggested they try and see if they could spot the criminal.
		Peter and Mary Jane got married on the front steps of New York City's City Hall (Amazing Spider-Man Annual #21), with her uncle, Spencer Watson, a judge, presiding over the ceremony.
		As time passed, Peter and Mary Jane realised that they were deceiving themselves about the depth of their feelings for each another and that they were very much in love.

	Amazon.com: Spider-Man: Return of the Goblin (Peter Parker, Spider-Man): Books: Paul Jenkins,Humberto Ramos
		Peter Parker carries the scars of Gwen's death to this day, but with the death of the Green Goblin the "Spider-Man" comic had killed off its prime villain, something that as a general rule comic books try to avoid doing.
		However Jenkins is also trying to make this more a contest between Norman Osborn and Peter Parker, which means it is more of a psychological duel for most of the story.
		In this story, Peter Parker feels that he has hit bottom - his marriage to MJ is on the rocks, the death of Gwen Stacy still haunts him, and his life has turned out worse than he could ever have imagined.

	MTV's Spider-man
		Rather than re-establishing the now-familiar web-slinging origin, MTV's Spider-man assumes everyone knows all about how Peter Parker gets bitten by a genetically engineered spider and ends up with super-strength, the ability to shoot webs out of his wrists, and a precognitive spider-sense that warns him of impending danger.
		Capitalizing on the immense popularity of the 2002 Spider-man feature film, MTV jumps right into Peter Parker's college days with a new animated series that will air weekly in hourly blocks featuring back-to-back half-hour episodes.
		In the episode airing July 11th, "The Sword of Shikata", a wealthy crimelord named Damien hires an Elektra-esque assassin (Shikata, guest-voiced by Gina Gershon) to capture Spider-man for his private zoo.

	Review - Ultimate Spider-Man // PlayStation 2 /// Eurogamer
		Ultimate Spider-Man has oodles of style though, and it seeps out of its greasy teenage pores most during the cut-scenes.
		The story starts with a nerdy and deformed angst-ridden teen Peter Parker suffering an identity crisis and struggling to come to terms with who and what he is. Mary Jane, looking somewhat Kirsten, is fully aware of Peter Parker's arachnoid proclivities.
		Unlike Spider-Man 2, the game doesn't attempt to follow any cinematic storyline, and is instead based on the Ultimate Spider-Man comic books.

	GameSpy: Ultimate Spider-Man Review
		Thus "Ultimate Spider-Man" has Peter Parker as a 15-year-old high school kid juggling algebra tests, the Internet, and awkward first dates, while fighting super-powered criminals and living with the guilt that his best friend Eddie Brock has become the hideous Venom because of an experiment performed by his deceased father.
		Unlike the Tobey Maguire Spider-Man, Peter Parker in USM is just a 15-year-old kid, pretty new to his powers and all this superhero jazz, and the animations really show that.
		Ultimate Spider-Man is the closest a game's ever come to bringing a comic book to life -- if only the gameplay could match the visuals.
