Spiderman

After the accident with the radioactive spider, Peter was transformed. He was stronger, faster, more agile and much more powerful than he could have imagined. He had received the proportionate strength and speed of a spider! Many people who have followed him in more recent times probably assume that he simply began to fight crime. NOT true. He started out using his gift for personal gain. but after a tragic inciddent with his uncle ( which he could have saved ), he started fighting crime for the good of the people becuse then he finally found the meaning of the quote " With great power comes great responsibility".

Uncle Ben was a hard working man that helped peter parker develop into a mature man. Later on in the story of spider man, Uncle Ben noticed peter's Pre Mature mood swings occuring (not knowing he has obtained super powers). So later on in the story Peter and Uncle Ben get in fight. Ben says the foamous quote "With great power comes great responsibility" to warn peter about whatever he is about to do (assuming that he is doing something dangerous). This is the last time peter ends up talking with Uncle Ben.
