Spider-Man

"You're in dire need of an upgrade. Why are you doing this? I gotta know. What gets you out of that twin bed in the morning?" "Because... because I've been me my whole life, and I've had these powers for 6 months... and I read books, I build computers... and yeah I would love to play football. But I couldn't then so I shouldn't now." "Sure. Cause' you're different." "Exactly. But I can't tell anybody that, so I'm not. When you can do the things that I can, but you don't... and then the bad things happen, they happen to be evil." "So you wanna look out for the little guy. You wanna do your part. Make the world a better place all that, right?" "Yeah. yeah just looking out...for the little guy. that's..that's what it is."

- Tony Stark and Peter Parker

Peter Parker is a high school student and a superhero who possesses spider-like abilities under the alter ego of Spider-Man.

The New Recruit
Peter Parker was on his way home from school. Upon entering his apartment and greeting his aunt May, he realized that they had a famous visitor: Tony Stark. Peter was irritated and speechless about meeting his biggest idol and was confused when Stark told his aunt that Stark Industries planned to give Peter a huge scholarship, which was actually a pretense of Stark to meet Peter Parker. When he realized it, he played along and led Tony Stark to his room where they could talk in private.

He was shocked when Stark showed him footage of the rumored "Spider-Man" that was said to be active in New York for several months. His videos showed a figure in red and blue apprehending criminals and stopping speeding cars with his bare hands. Stark jokingly wondered if that figure wasn't Peter, to which he reacted with very clumsy excuses that Tony didn't buy. Peters cover blew completely when Tony instantly discovered the secret hiding place of the cheap clothes that Peter used as his costume. Peter had no other chance than to confess that he was indeed Spider-Man and has been for about six months. Tony jokingly ridiculed Peter for his cheap costume but complimented his self-made Web-Shooters.

Tony quickly recognized himself in Peter because of his affinity towards science and even more so, when Peter mentions a tragic event in his past that lead to him taking on a responsibility that most people could not take. He decided to take the boy under his wing and invited him to come to Germany with him (to which Peter replied that he had homework to do).

Battle at the Leipzig/Halle Airport
At Iron Man's command, Spider-Man (in an improved suit) revealed himself at the battle of the Leipzig/Halle airport and stole Captain America's Shield with his webbing. Shortly after the battle began. Spider-Man's job was to keep his distance and web Captain America and his companions up, as Tony Stark did not want to hurt any of them. Spider-Man was surprised by Ant-Man at first, then followed Falcon and the Winter Soldier. After a quick battle he was able to web them both up. Afterwards he fought with Captain America (whom both had a mutual respect towards each other) and managed to give him a good fight but eventually lost, when Captain America forced him to hold up a bus so he could get away. At the end of the battle, Spider-Man (inspired by the movie "The Empire Strikes Back") came up with a strategy to defeat a gigantic Ant-Man. He webbed up his knees so that Ant-Man lost his stand and then let Iron Man and War Machine hit him against the helmet with full speed, so Ant-Man fell over. After the battle Iron Man told an exhausted Peter Parker that he was done and should go home.

New Equipment
Later Peter was back home in his apartment in Queens and rested on his bed. His aunt May took care of his blackened eye, which Peter got in the battle of the Leipzig/Halle airport. When Aunt May asked Peter who has done this, he told her about a guy named Steve from Brooklyn and his really big friend. When she was out of the room, Peter inspects his new Web-Shooters which have been made by Tony Stark, when suddenly a red beam came out of one of them, projecting his new Spider-Signal.

Personality
Outside of his Spider-Man persona, Peter lives the life of a normal 15 year old high school student. He cares deeply for his Aunt May. He is a very intelligent science enthusiast, capable of inventing and building his own Web-Shooters. He gathers both science and comic books in his room, as long with his Spider-Man costume, which he hides in a tiny room at the ceiling. Keeping his secret identity is very important to him, as he even confronted Tony Stark when he implied to tell his aunt. Peter mentioned a tragic event in his past, which is the reason for why responsibility is so important to him. Peter is also highly impressionable towards Authority figures more than likely due to his young age. An example of this was towards Rogers when asked about why he was fighting was because Tony said your in the wrong. He was also very excited to be in a fight with Superheroes to the point where people on Iron man's team were saying how old is this guy due to spidey acting very young during the airport battle.

During battle, Peter shows to be courageous and capable and also that he could come up with clever strategies due to his scientific expertise. He frequently annoys his enemies with fast talking humor and quipping. When he doesn't wear the mask however, Peter behaves very humble and shy and often stumbles over his own words.

Powers

 * Superhuman Strength: Spider-Man possesses the proportional strength of a spider, allowing him to stop cars driving at full speed, to easily stop a punch of the Winter Soldier's cybernetic arm, and even to lift a bus, though the last seemed to be his very limit.
 * Superhuman Durability: Spider-Man is unfazed by great impacts, such as landing hard after falling several stories, as he quickly continues to move, unhampered by it.
 * Superhuman Agility: Spider-Man is exceptionally agile and fast, capable of swinging around on thin spider-webbing and jumping very high distances.
 * Superhuman Senses: Spider-Man's senses are greatly enhanced, forcing him to restrict them with his costume, so as to avoid them handicapping him in a battle situation.
 * Spider-Senses: Spider-Man's most noteworthy trait are his paranormal survival instincts, which warn him of impending danger a few moments before the time of danger.
 * Regenerative Healing Factor: Spider-Man, as a result of his increased metabolism, has his natural healing accelerated to a certain extent, with him healing from injuries without medical attention shortly after the Civil War, while discovering his Spider-Signal.
 * Wall-Crawling: Spider-Man is able to adhere to walls and ceilings like a spider, stating that he doesn't use mechanical devices for this.

Abilities

 * Gifted Intelligence: Peter Parker is an exceptionally smart science enthusiast, capable of inventing and constructing his own web-shooters (the sophistication of which impressed even Tony Stark) and using the laws of physics to his advantage in a battle as Spider-Man, and can also very quickly come up with witty but incredibly annoying quips, much to the chagrin and irritation of his opponents.
 * Combatant: Spider-Man is a relatively skilled fighter at both close and long distances. However, he does not seem to be skilled in martial arts and rather fights instinctively. He emphasizes the use of his speed, agility and his spiderwebs, which he uses as a non-lethal weapon.
 * Master Acrobat: Spider-Man's agility allows him to perform complicated acrobatic moves. He was able to accurately shoot a web at Captain America's Shield and catch it while jumping in the air, and land over a vehicle.
