Why Spiderman Is So Popular
Few superheroes can hold the attention of audiences the way Spiderman does. Comic book stories, and superhero's are in the height of their popularity, and Spider-Man has been one of the most influential figures of the genre. Spider-Man's popularity can be attributed to his transformation from "average Joe", Peter Parker, to the crime fighting superhero, Spiderman.
Peter Parker was an ordinary kid, until his parents were killed, effectively making him an orphan. He would go on to live with his aunt and uncle, who would raise them as if he were their own.
The fact that Peter Parker was an orphan growing up, establishes a sense of pity for the character. Fans can't help but cheer on Spider-Man, due to his tragic upbringing.
Peter Parker's transformation to Spider-Man came in the form of a spider bite. This hits home to fans, getting a spider bite is a very common occurrence that anyone can relate too; spiders are also a fear for many people.
Showing the way Peter got his super powers makes him connect with the audience. What disconnects audience are different superheroes who have cool powers, but nobody knows how they got it. And because you never know about their personalities, you cannot connect with them.
Spider-Man is a fascinating character to watch and really think about. His super powers are very desirable, and a common answer to the question "If you had a super power, what would it be?" He has the ability and agility to jump incredibly high, and climb walls. He can also swing from structure to structure with his web-spitting.
One of the more important powers that spiderman possesses is not his agility, even though that helps a whole lot. What I am talking about is his spider senses. Everytime danger is nearby, Peter Parker gets an internal alert that makes him aware of his surroundings.
Peter Parker his boss Jameson makes Parker's life harder than it needs to be. He always wants to have the best pictures of spiderman, but actually hates him. But because the pictures bring in so much money for the company, he constantly wants new ones.
Finally, Spider-Man has a number of different of intriguing enemies. The Green Goblin, Hobgoblin, Dr. Octopus, and of course Venom, make up some of the most popular antagonists in the comic book world. These "bad guys", and their opposition to Spiderman, help to make Spider-Man, one of the most popular superheroes out there. - 23806
