Marvel Comics Radioactive Man
The Amazing Spiderman Phenomenon
Since its first appearance in Amazing Fantasy # 15, Spider-Man has grown to be one of the most beloved superheroes already created, appearing in a range of products from books to comics to movies.
The Birth of Spiderman
When we first met SpiderMan Amazing Fantasy # 15, it was just Peter Parker, an unpopular high school student. He was alone and more interested in books than saving something or someone. At However, due to the timely interference of a radioactive spider, Peter Parker gains the strength and agility of a spider. Armed with this new power, Peter Parker sews a costume itself red body (thank goodness for home economics), build a crude device webbing, and joins the professional wrestling circuit to make some money. Unfortunately, Peter Parker is more about making money with your new skills to help any. When it allows thieves to escape, they end up killing his uncle, setting the stage for the guilt that will lead SpiderMan for the rest of his career.
Spiderman: The comic books
SpiderMan was written to be a case of once. His appearance Amazing Fantasy, however, revived sagging sale, in fact, Spider-Man proved to be one of Marvels superheroes more profitable. Far from being a unique case, Spider-Man can now be found in a series endless variety of comic books in The Amazing Spider-Man, the Spectacular Spiderman, Sensational Spiderman, and even Ultimate Spiderman (not to be confused, of course, with Spider-Man Unlimited).

Spiderman is more than just comic books. Its popularity led Marvel to create a media franchise, Spider-Man, with his story appeared in the television cartoons, video games and even movies. The recent feature films to focus on SpiderMan star Tobey Maguire as Spiderman and Kirsten Dunst as Mary Jane Watson. The first film, released in 2002, focuses on early career SpiderMans, with a genetically altered spider taking the place of the original radioactive spider. With his new powers, Spider-Man comes face to face with the Green Goblin, played by Willem Dafoe. Buoyed by the success of the first movie, Spiderman 2 SpiderMan returned in 2004 to face off against Dr. Octopus, a multi-tentacled experiment wrong. Spiderman 3 is scheduled for release in 2007. This time it is set to face his greatest enemy yet in his own poison black alien suit.
