Before Spider-Man was brought to life in comics and movies, this hero was heavily doubted because most people don't like spiders. He was the first hero to show that heroes can come in unconventional places, seeing as he was just a kid. Stan Lee even contemplated using a fly instead of a Spider, but always felt very interested in the idea of Spider-Man and making him different. Stan Lee even loosely based Peter Parker after his own family and childhood. Today we celebrate the success of Spider-Man.
