Stan Lee gave his characters alliterative names to help him remember them. Unfortunately, that let him get close, but he still forgot. Peter Palmer and Bob Banner are two examples where he screwed up.

Up until 1968 there was no mention of what had happened to Peter’s parents, Richard and Mary Parker, or who his parents even were to begin with. Having lived with his Aunt May and Uncle Ben since the debut of the first Spider-Man comic, no one was that interested in Peter’s parents and the occasional photograph or flashback was all anyone saw of th...
As Spider-Man writers churned through stories of the web-head, fans became equally engaged in the life of Peter Parker and had a thirst for more stories regarding his past. These fan desires were met when it was revealed that Parker’s parents were actually undercover agents in an evil organization run by the third Red Skull, Albert Malik. While we ...
While it’s worth noting that Ben Parker didn’t say “with great power comes great responsibility” in the comics, the man who is attributed to Peter’s moral compass and reason for becoming Spider-Man was actually Peter’s last surviving blood relative. Although Aunt May is one of the most familiar characters in Spider-Man lore, the woman who raised Pe...
Between comic books, animated series, and two film series, we’ve seen Peter get bit by that famous radioactive spider more times than necessary. Though the way it’s happened has varied depending on the medium, the result is always the same; a nerdy high school-aged Peter Parker turns into Spider-Man. But as it turns out, many of us don’t know the w...
Not always the altruistic wise-cracker we now know him to be, when Peter Parker first got his powers his only thought was that this was his chance to make money. While we know the story of how he used his newfound abilities to last in the ring with professional wrestlers, what’s less clear is how this all led to the origin of Spider-Man. We may tak...
As it turns out, all five Spider-Man films have most likely skewed your perception of Peter Parker. In reality he was really more of a loser in high school than you might have imagined. He didn’t have the coolest friend in Harry Osborn, and he didn’t have two incredibly smart and attractive girls fighting over him in Mary Jane and Gwen. All he real...
Yes, the guy who made Peter’s life a living hell in high-school – the same guy that Peter eventually pummeled into the ground once he became Spider-Man – later became friends with Peter in university. Flash Thompson, bully extraordinaire, eventually came around to Peter, perhaps aided by the fact that he (Flash) was Spider-Man’s biggest fan. Althou...
Another fact, another legion of fans that were misled by Sam Raimi’s trilogy. This time all of us have to consider that what we always held to be true – that Mary Jane was Peter’s high-school crush – is actually the opposite of true. In reality, Mary Jane Watson was meant to be a running joke in the Spider-Man comics; a girl that Aunt May repeatedl...
Though none of the five Spider-Man films ever left New York City, Peter is more of a world-traveler in the movies, not only going on trips with The Avengers to save the world, but also carrying out his own missions. One such mission was when Peter went to Algeria in order to find out what really happened to his parents. After an article in an old n...
One of the biggest Spider-Man stories in recent years was directly tied to the 2006 Civil Wararc, although it's one we’re unlikely to see in the upcoming film. Originally siding with Iron Man to condone the superhero registration act, Peter had strong beliefs about the issue and decided to set a press conference in Washington, D.C. to publicly give...

Strange wondered if Parker was Stark's ward, but Parker clarified that he was not, and introduced himself to Doctor Strange, who returned the gesture; however, Parker mistook Strange's proper title for his superhero name.
