Description



Book Synopsis



Get to know your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man!

Peter Parker isn't a millionaire, super scientist, or secret spy. In fact, his normal life (outside of that pesky spider bite that gave him unique powers) is what makes him so beloved. Spider-Man For Dummies unweaves the web of this friendly neighborhood super hero and dives into how Spider-Man came to be. Produced in partnership with Marvel Comics, this fun and friendly guide features full-color art taken directly from the comics. You'll be able to observe first-hand the evolution of the spider-suit and uncover the powers of this iconic hero. Get to know the other major characters that play a part in Peter's life, both family and foes, and learn more about Spider-Man's credo: "With great power there must also come great responsibility." Before long, you'll understand how an unassuming kid from Queens managed to secure his spot as one of the great Marvel super heroes.

  • Discover the origins of Spider-Man's arachnid abilities
  • Trace the evolution of the spider-suit
  • Meet the friends, family, and foes featured in the comics
  • Understand Spider-Man's inner struggles through triumph and tragedy
  • Explore the epic crossovers and greatest Spider-Man team-ups

For super fans, casual comic book readers, and people new to Marvel super heroes altogether, Spider-Man For Dummies has something to make everyone's Spidey-Sense tingle.
