Superman and Spider-Man — Superman and **Spider-Man**^[1]

Spider-Man was a superhero who in reality, was Peter Parker, a photographer for the Daily Bugle.

He wore a blue and red spider-like superhero costume, and he was a very active hero in New York City, especially Manhattan.

History[]

Earth 1956[]

Peter Parker gets his super powers — Peter after getting bit by a radioactive spider.^[2]

Very little data is available about this version of Spider-Man, although he apparently was bit by a radioactive spider, which somehow caused him to have spider-like abilities. This left him feeling somewhat disoriented at first, and possibly a little dizzy.^[4]

Eventually however, he became used to his newfound condition and he started to find ways to use his super powers to be a superhero. He eventually made himself a costume and Web-Shooters to make his superheroing a bit more official.

As far as his secret identity was concerned, his real name was Peter Parker, and he was from New York City and he most likely worked for the Daily Bugle, and J. Jonah Jameson was his boss.^[5]

Earth-One[]

Sometime around the 1970s, a man dressed up in a Spider-Man costume was at the Rutland Halloween Parade in Rutland, Vermont. He told a man in a Batman costume that he was "dressed as the Webslinger Lad. He's my idol."^[7]

During the Crisis on Infinite Earths, Spider-Man was present in his secret identity of Peter Parker when the Superman of Earth-Two rescued Lois Lane from a saber-tooth tiger.

He was taking photos with his camera during this incident, likely to give to his boss at the Daily Bugle.^[8]

New Earth[]

Superheroes at Norad — **Spider-Man** along with several other heroes at Norad.^[9]

Spider-Man was present along with a number of other superheroes at the Norad Defense Command Center, where Amanda Waller, Maxwell Lord, General Wade Eiling and Superman held a superhero summit regarding the Alien Alliance.

Superman detailed the account of his encounter with the Dominators and how they must prepare for war. Spider-Man was standing to the right and in front of the Flash.^[10]

Joker once encountered Spider-Man at some point in time. Sometime later, in 1996; when he met the Earth-616 version of Spider-Man, Joker told him "You've changed tailors since last we tangoed." Apparently he meant that his costume was completely different.^[11]

Earth-90-SSF[]

On this Earth, Spidey was a member of the Super Friends. His fellow teammates were Batman, Darkwing Duck, Captain Planet, The Tick, Wolverine, Sonic the Hedgehog and Goliath.^[12]

Earth-616[]

Joker meets Spider-Man (Round One) — Joker encounters another Spider-Man from Earth-616.^[13]

On this Earth; by the the mid 1990s, Peter Parker was no longer active as Spider-Man, but Ben Reilly, a clone of him; took over as Spider-Man while he was inactive or missing; whichever it was.

As mentioned earlier, the Joker from the New Earth universe met this version of Spider-Man, and he told him how he had met him before he had "changed tailors."^[14]

Real World[]

In 1978, a young boy dressed up in Spider-Man Underoos and joined several other young kids in a song and dance about their underwear.^[15]

Arachnid Mimicry: Peter's super powers are a mimicry of the abilities of spiders:
Adhesion: Spider-Man can scale a wall just like a spider.

Superhuman Strength: He is roughly the same strength that a spider would be if it was human size.

Superhuman Agility

Spider-Sense

Abilities[]

Equipment[]

Web-Shooters: These were wrist-mounted guns that blasted a sticky substance similar to the silk of spiders. He used them for a variety of purposes, such as entangling bad guys, and he also used them as ropes to swing from one building to the next.
Black Suit: Prior to Eddie Brock's possession of it, Spider-Man wore an alien costume that was in reality a parasitic alien.

Also the Daily Bugle, Peter Parker's place of employment in the comics, was also shown to exist on a very similar Earth called Earth-RS88 in Destroy the Defendroids (1988). Not to mention the fact that Spider-Man was seen in multiple Underoos commercials alongside the Super Friends. Because of this, we have more than enough reason to assume that Spider-Man was a real person in the universe that the Superfriends existed in. Also, he has been shown interacting with other members of the Super Friends in various Super Friends products, such as on the packages of various Super Amigos and Super Powers branded Super Powers toys, indicating that he is not a fictional character in their universe, but rather a real person. The real reason they are never shown together in animated form is quite clear; because in the real world Spider-Man is owned by a rival of DC Comics.
