## History

### Peter Parker: 2002-2018

**Peter Parker** was born in Fall of 2002 to Richard and Mary Parker. He is the only child of two undercover CIA agents. When he was four, his parents died in an Airplane accident. From that day on he would live with his Aunt May and Uncle Ben. They were happy together, Peter was not their son but they loved him as if he was.

Aunt May was always protective of Peter, because of this smothering he grew anti-social and a bit reserved. Knowing this would harm the boy, Uncle Ben introduced him to the wonderful world of comics. There he read of gods among men: A man powered by the Sun, a legion of gods ruling with creativity and light, a heroic protector in a city filled with crime, and so many more. With all that, the time between the pages paled in comparison to the baseball trips. Every month, they watched the New York Mets play.

Peter first met his life long friend, Harry Osborne, at an open house for the new Oscorp building. Peter went and became enthralled with the state-of-the-art facility. When he saw another boy his age he immediately was stunned, especially when he loved science too. Harry surprised Peter the following semester when Harry transferred to his school, especially when he learned that he used to go to a very expensive and well-marked private education.

During a Freshman Field Trip to Oscorp, Peter was excited. He was invested in every project that was presented to his group. During lunch, Parker was tripped, falling right into Ty Stone, his designated bully. One of them changed his life forever, it was a lab full of spiders that no one really understood. That is except Peter, it wasn't just about spiders, but the surface of human development. It was exciting. With eyes full of wonder, he was bitten by one of the altered spiders. In a bout of stupor, Peter paid it no mind. When he went home, he immediately went to bed as he felt queasy and unwell. When he woke up, he knew something was off.

The next day was quite off. Ty decided to make his life horrible after what he did on the trip. Ty started a fight with Peter after school. To Ty's dismay, Peter could handle Ty this time. Peter easily dodged his fists, somehow knowing where Ty was going to punch. with one punch to the chest, Peter knocked him down the hall. Not knowing what just happened, Peter ran from the scene. When he grabbed his backpack from his locker, he bolted leaving the school and going home.

He was afraid of what was happening and did not want to scare his protective Aunt, and decided not to tell her for the time being.

The Parkers were never what one would call rich. Money was always tight, and Aunt May was considering taking more shifts at the Hospital, while Ben decided to return to his career as a Substitute Teacher. Peter decided to help, he would use his newfound powers to good use.

With an ad in the newspaper, Peter discovers an opening in a wrestling tournament. Peter spends the next week crafting a persona he dubs, The Arachnid.

### The Arachnid: 2018

That Thursday, Peter sneaks out to go to the tournament and fights several other upcoming wrestlers. He wins all the matches. His first real fight was against Crusher Hogan. The Arachnid easily beat Crusher and moved up in the tournament. It was his thirteenth match when things went sour for The Arachnid.

That afternoon, Peter told his Aunt and Uncle that he was going to the library again. Uncle Ben wanting to spend some time with him offered to drive him there. When they got there, Ben was inspired to impart words of wisdom towards his nephew. He told him that "There will be those who hold power. These heroes we've seen in the past years are amazing and wonderful. But there are reasons that not everyone has a Hammer or can grow green. Peter, I know that you are doing that wrestling bit, I haven't told May yet. You know how she is with you. I am behind you Peter, I want you to know that you can be great." Peter didn't know what to say. So he said "Thanks for the ride, Uncle Ben. Pick me up at Eleven?" and left.

When he got there, his effects designer, Quinten Beck, suggested that they went big for the entrance. Peter tried to stop him, but it didn't matter. The spectacular didn't work out so well. Beck's spectacular went wrong, and several of the audience members were hurt in the event. While The Arachnid did beat "Bonesaw" McGraw, Peter was fired from the ring. He tried to plead but his boss did not care and fired them both.

Peter was enraged, while he left he bumped into a shady-looking man. When they collided, the man dropped a ski mask. He was so angry that he forgot what his Uncle told him earlier that day. Peter picked up the mask and handed it back to him. Walking out the door, Peter looked back and realized that the man was here to rob his old boss. He smiled.

### Peter Parker: 2018

Peter walked out of the building and realizing the time raced down to the library to meet Uncle Ben. Where the car was parked, a group had amassed next to Ben's car. As a squad car passed, sirens blaring, Peter bolted toward the party. He ran faster and faster. An officer tried to stop him but he pushed him away. Peter finally came, a pool of blood has formed around Ben's body. Peter picked up his Uncle and started cradling his dying body. Uncle Ben cried out to Peter, "Rich? I'm sorry, I failed you. Peter's so young, he can't... Peter isn't ready. Pete knows, yes he knows... Peter? Petey, I'm sorry I failed you. I'm not going to see you grow up as I promised. Peter remember, with great power comes grea..." Peter understood.

Peter cried out to God, blood on his hands, and a curse on his lips, he was inconsolable. He had put his Uncle in danger, by lying to him. It was after his funeral that the police informed the Parkers that they had identified the man who was responsible for Ben's death. A cat burglar by the name of Walter Hardy. Peter recognized the man, he was the man he let go after robbing the wrestling ring. After that Peter became severely depressed. His relationship with Gwen Stacey began to suffer, and Aunt May began to worry for Peter. Peter's life began to turn around for the better when a package arrived in the mail for him from a Leo Zelinsky. Aunt May was not home, so Peter decided to open it himself. Inside was a spandex-like suit that was Red and Black. It was errily similar to a design, he had for The Arachnid.

To his surprise, at the bottom of the box was a note. It read "Peter, I know. You aren't very secretive. I was wondering where you got that money and found your stash under your bed. There were also your designs for your costume. Peter, you have a remarkable ability. You are wasting your time fighting for cash. Peter," he wrote, "May and I got this. Peter, become the next superhero or whatever, but Peter, remember this suit is yours, not mine. but make your dreams a reality. Your power comes with a price. The knight of old had the power of the king, you have the powers of a god, with that power comes great responsibility. You know your father loved that line. It's' one of the only things I have left of him." Peter knew that Uncle Ben's life could not have been lost in vain. Peter, folded the note up and put it in his sock drawer. Peter decided to go to work. For the next several weeks, Peter fashioned the first prototype of the "Web-Slinger". It couldn't really do much but grab stuff, not meant for swinging yet.

### Spider-Man: 2018

Using Ben's suit, Peter used his study hall period to systematically sneak out, and defend Queens and New York from danger. It was quite a while before he faced a real baddie as the Avengers fought. His name was The Vulture. Peter never realized the Vulture's true identity then, nor his motivation. All Peter cared was that he had successfully beaten off his first supervillain. As the winged foe spiraled off without his stolen goods, Peter bounded off back to his school building. It was a close call when he arrived back at school. Ty had almost seen him sneaking out of the janitorial closet.

It wasn't soon after the first encounter with The Vulture that Peter started fighting many supervillains, particularly the Big Man, Kingpin, whose criminal underlings were consistently being taken down by the Web-Head. To destroy the menace, Kingpin put a bounty on the hero's head. Peter learned about the Kingpin's bounty when Aleksei Sytsevich was captured and spilled the beans. Now Spider-Man knew he had a target on his back and he knew who to contact.

Spider-Man scaled the side of Fisk Tower and entered himself into the atrium. Fisk and his body men, Tombstone and Hammerhead awaited him. Fisk held a hot rag against his face tending to some fresh wounds. Kingpin warned him that his little war on crime has began to make a dent in his more questionable activities. He told him that as while he fights larger threats, his employees are able to fly under the radar. Fisk then offered Spider-Man a "freelance job" that whenever Mr. Fisk told him to turn a blind eye he would. No matter what it was.

Enraged Spider-Man remembered the last time he turned a blind eye his uncle got killed. Denying the offer, Peter began to leave but Kingpin had different ideas. Throwing his coffee mug at Spider-Man, Fisk attacked the hero. Catching the mug with a web, he hurled it back at the crime boss. Tombstone and Hammerhead began to fight Spider-Man and as he clashed with gangsters, Kingpin sat and watched. Spider-Man jumped up to the ceiling and adhered Kingpin to the ceiling. Wilson Fisk warned him as he made his escape out one of the broken windows, that he know has a target on his back, one that wont be easy to shake off.

As the weeks began to pass, Peter did realize that money was tight and he would need some if he was to continue to protect the city as "The Spectacular Spider-Man". He realized that he needed to get a job that would allow him to be Spider-Man and work odd hours. The answer came in the morning paper. The news agency, The Daily Bugle was looking for Freelance photographers. Peter began photogrpahing his fights with various villians and sent them to J. Jonah Jameson as a portfolio. Jameson eventually hired Parker
