She is, however, distinguished for being a rare instance of a hero with a disability, living with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, as a result of which she uses a wheelchair or crutches even in the context of her costumed identity.

What’s their deal?: Spider-Man had spent a full decade in the purgatory of tangled Hollywood film rights before a minor miracle occurred in 2002, with director Sam Raimi finally bringing the character to the big screen as portrayed by Tobey Maguire. Though Maguire himself was considered a surprise choice at the time, he managed to impress audiences with his convincingly put-upon and introverted portrayal of young Peter Parker — notwithstanding his questionable dance moves in Spider-Man 3. The same universal praise, alas, was not bestowed on Maguire’s successor, Andrew Garfield, when Spider-Man was rebooted in 2012 as a surlier, skateboarding, Ultimate Comics-influenced Parker. Nevertheless, both actors returned to warm fan reception in 2021’s Spider-Man: No Way Home, where they pointed at one another accusingly as the memes foretold.

What’s her deal?: Mayday “May” Parker was the Spider-Girl who was never supposed to live. Created by writer Tom DeFalco and artist Ron Frenz, she was intended initially for a What If…? one-shot in 1998, imagining the teenage adventures of the child of Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson. That story met with such unexpected success, however, that DeFalco and Frenz were caught off-guard by Marvel’s request to spin May off into an ongoing series. Spider Man is perched on the table. He’s revealing to me a long story. I’m tuning in and here and there we talk. It’s a pleasant time we’re having. Power-responsibility score: 10 Uncle Bens out of 10. Brave kitty. Brave, brave kitty. Pter Ptarker/Spider-Rex What’s his deal?: Earth-8101 is an Earth populated by anthropomorphic apes — not to be confused with the Earth that was home to Marvel’s 1970s licensed adaptation of the Planet of the Apes motion picture. Much like his human equivalent in powers, Spider-Monkey had a wildly different (and convincingly obnoxious) personality, and was frequently willing to kill in battle against his animal enemies. After coming to the aid of a multiversal crisis, however, he lost his life heroically during the Spider-Verse crossover. Spider-Man has been a member of several superhero teams, including the Avengers, the Fantastic Four, and the New Avengers.

Beyond these major series, there have been other adaptations and spin-offs featuring different actors voicing Spider-Man in animated TV shows and films. Spider-Man's real name is Peter Benjamin Parker. Peter Parker was created by writer Stan Lee and artist Steve Ditko and first appeared in "Amazing Fantasy" #15 in 1962.
