Storyline
Based on Marvel Comics' superhero character, this is a story of Peter
Parker who is a nerdy high-schooler. He was orphaned as a child, bullied
by jocks, and can't confess his crush for his stunning neighborhood
girl Mary Jane Watson. To say his life is "miserable" is an
understatement. But one day while on an excursion to a laboratory a
runaway radioactive spider bites him... and his life changes in a way no
one could have imagined. Peter acquires a muscle-bound physique, clear
vision, ability to cling to surfaces and crawl over walls, shooting webs
from his wrist ... but the fun isn't going to last. An eccentric
millionaire Norman Osborn administers a performance enhancing drug on
himself and his maniacal alter ego Green Goblin emerges. Now Peter
Parker has to become Spider-Man and take Green Goblin to the task... or
else Goblin will kill him. They come face to face and the war begins in
which only one of them will survive at the end. Written by
