Ouch! During a nuclear experiment at a high school science fair honor student Peter Parker was bitten by an accidentally irradiated spider. From that momentary pinch of pain he gained incredible spiderlike powers! Now, whether he's swinging his way into the city on a web-line of his own weaving, hoisting hundreds of times his weight like the little namesake or acrobatically arresting the world's wildest assortment of arch-villains, there's no mistaking that wonderfully witty wall-crawler--the one and only Spider-Man!
Did you know: Peter's parents, Rick and Mary Parker, were US government agents killed by the nefarious Red Skull! *Source: Back of card
