Spider-Man
Arachnid-powered hero
Spider-Man is a Marvel Comics superhero who gains spider-like abilities—wall-crawling, superhuman agility, web-slinging—after being bitten by a radioactive spider.
Created in 1962, the character's civilian identity is typically Peter Parker, a young New Yorker balancing ordinary life with crime-fighting.
The hyphen distinguishes the character from generic spider-man compounds.
