word of advice : pillager for Amazing Spider - Man # 16
Marvel’sSpider - Manhas over 60 years of comic book story under his belt , yet despite his X of experience , he still can not pose his scoundrel - and a late issue suggests he never will . Peter Parker has one of the most varied and memorable roll of supervillains in the Marvel Universe;the Green Goblin , Doctor Octopus , Venom and scads of others attack New York City apparently every day . ButAmazing Spider - Man # 16reveals that Peter simply is n’t trying severely enough - because he does n’t want to .
Most of Peter Parker ’s villains share animal - themed names ( the Lizard , the Rhino , the Vulture , etc . ) , but it is more accurate to say each one is a dark reflection of Spider - Man himself . Doctor Octopus is a magnificent scientist who is just as selfish as Spider - Man , but his egotism controls his action . Venom allows himself to let power overcome him ( without any duty ) , Mysterio is an entertainer who use his illusions to appear inviolable and more well - liked than he actually is , and Black Cat allows a personal tragedy to get the better of her . It is well - known that many of Peter ’s villains have since reformed after realise they want to alter ( Norman Osborn is presently reform as the heroic Gold Goblin , for model ) .

Spider-Man Has Been Holding Back His Entire Life
According to this issue , Peter Parker is stiff than he come along , but he never uses his full force . Peter is so attached to never accidentally accept a biography that he habitually pulls his punches in every fight ( similar to DC ’s Superman ) . Chasm may be Peter ’s very clone and thus possess the exact same strength as his progenitor , but he notably doesnotpull his punches ; this allow him to well destroy Peter in the exact same way as every other supervillain before him .
If Peter Parker genuinely wanted to , he could put every single one of his villain in the infirmary with a single lick . Even so , Spider - Man is terrorize of his own strengthwhen fight down foes such as Venomand others , and pulls his punches even when he should absolutely set on with his full strength .
