==History==
===Background===
Peter was born in 1984 to Mary and Richard Parker. At four years old, he lost his parents in a plane crash, leaving him to be raised by his paternal uncle and aunt. Despite never knowing his parents, Peter had Aunt May and Uncle Ben to look up to as parents who became very proud of their nephew. Peter was sixyears old when the Watsons moved in next door to his house and he immediately developed a crush on their daughter, Mary Jane. He was one of the top students at school and because of this, Peter was often picked on by bullies such as Flash Thompson and other people who considered Peter a nerd. He later became best friends with Harry Osborn, who mostly protected him when they reached high school.

==Personality==
Peter Parker is a highly intelligent young man from high school, where they went on a field trip that caused him to be bitten by a radioactive spider. Empowered by genetic mutations, he uses his newfound powers to help people in the wake of his uncle Ben's death. Peter easily got along with Norman Osborn (who, according to Harry, treated him like a son before learning Green Goblin's true nature) befriended his idol, scientist Otto Octavius.Though, he can be quirky at times, mostly due to his romantic feelings for Mary Jane Watson. He has a rather special relationship with Harry Osborn at the start of the film, regarding each other as best friends despite their socioeconomic backgrounds. However, it comes into conflict due to Harry staying a relationship with Mary Jane, because Peter is also in love with her. in the second film, despite the weight of the world, Peter is still a free-willed vigilante who is vastly Intelligent. 
Parker's career as Spider-Man was very difficult at first, due to New York City Police Department being mistrustful of the vigilante. J. Jonah Jameson discredits Peter's actions as Spider-Man, labeling him as a masked menace. In the series, it's implied he suffers from PTSD and is having trouble adapting. However, his deeds to protect the city's innocents has caused authoritarian figures into respecting the vigilante. This has led the civilians to help Spider-Man Fighting the Green Goblin and protecting him Peter's kindness and his heart allows him to see past his flaws, such as redeeming Otto Octavius so he would see the damage the latter was doing with his reactor and forgiving Flint Marko after learning he killed his uncle Ben on accident.
