What Makes A Superhero

In my opinion, a superhero does not need superpowers, only a will to help others. Also, they should be able to laugh in the face of danger and help anyone (even their enemies!) in their time of need. Another quality is knowing who to trust. If they trust a badguy, it won't turn out well for them.

Superpowers: Do they automatically give you the responsibility to Help Others?

I think having superpowers doesn't give Peter the responsibility to help others because if he wanted to be a badguy he could, without that responsibility. But that's just one opinion. Some people may say yes, because since he has superpowers, he can help them.

Chapter Names (cont.) (cont.)

Chapter 5 is named "Life Lessons" because Peter learns major lessons of life. Chapter 6 is called "Big Time Super Hero" most likely because Spiderman is a big time super hero. The table of contents says Chapter 7 is called "Revelations", but on the page it is called "Secret Identity". I think it is called "Secret Identity". I think so because the Green Goblin knows Spiderman's secret identity.

Chapter Names (cont.)

I think Chapter 2 was named "Growing Pains" because Peter is in pain because of his becoming Spiderman. I have no idea about Chapter 3, and I would have named it "The Crusher" because the Crusher is an important part. Chapter 4 is "With Great Power"because Uncle Ben makes his famous saying "With great power comes great responsibility."

Chapter Names

I think that Chapter 1 should have been named something other than "Powerless" because Peter didn't have any powers in the first place and the word powerles usually refers to a person or object who had powes but lost them. Iwould have called it "Spider Bite" because that's what happened.

Main Idea

The Main idea is that even if you're a weakling you can become one of those "cool kids" and everyone will like you. Ths book shows that by Peter getting bit and becoming a cool kid.

If Everyone Had Spiderman Powers

If everyone had Spiderman powers, Spiderman wouldn't have been famous. Peter wouldn't have beat up the bullies because they would have gotten extra strength too, and there would be a mysterious wave of fainting going across town, because everyone would be getting bitten by the radioactive spider.
