Spider-Man had the absolute biggest impact on my life. In many ways, I relate a lot to Peter Parker. I've been bullied, never had a lot of friends, and had money issues as well. I was diagnosed with Autism when I was four and had trouble making friends. Half the time, I was alone. When he's not dropping quips and stopping criminals as Spider-Man, he has everyday problems as Peter Parker just like every one of us. When I saw the 2002 Spider-Man movie for the first time on VHS, my life changed forever. Spider-Man and his many adventures from stopping big baddies like Green Goblin and Dr. Octopus to making a child's day by visiting him in the hospital to witnessing him go through the things I went through at the time really helped me cope with my loneliness. Everyday, Spider-Man puts his life on the line to protect people and he's been through alot of harsh moments from losing his Uncle Ben and the love of his life, Gwen Stacy to being near homeless because of money issues to being mentally tortured by Green Goblin but no matter what gets in his path, he never gives up. Spider-Man, twenty years later, not only remains my favorite superhero but my favorite fictional character PERIOD. Thank you to Stan Lee and Steve Ditko for 60 years of this amazing existence of an amazing character and to create a character that we can all relate to 🖤
