“With great power comes great responsibility.” Uncle Ben passed that advice to Peter Parker. Although Uncle Ben died at the hands of criminals that Peter Parker brings to justice as Spider-Man, that powerful lesson lives on. Peter Parker knows where he comes from. The question remains, which Spider-Man are you?
This quiz spins an all-encompassing web of life questions and qualities to find the answer. Perhaps the results match the youthful exuberance Tom Holland delights MCU fans with as the most famous and recent cinematic Spider-Man. Or, maybe you feel closer to Tobey Maguire’s levelheaded and introverted version of Spider-Man in the Sam Raimi films. Or, perhaps you relate to the darker side of the comics and have more in common with the Symbiote Spider-Man. Some stick closer to the classical ’90s Spider-Man that dominated Saturday morning cartoons and video games for years.
Spider-Man
Stan Lee co-created Spider-Man in 1962. A radioactive spider bit student Peter Parker during a scientific demonstration. This unforeseen event sent Parker's life into a tailspin as Spider-Man was born. Spider-Man protects New York City (and with the Avengers, the world) using his amazing arachnid abilities, including superhuman strength, reflexes, fast-paced web-slinging, and advanced anticipation of attacks via Spider-Sense. Venom and Green Goblin cause Spider-Man and less capable New Yorkers the biggest problems. Although Spider-Man packs the pain-permeating punch of a Black Widow, a high school kid/young man lives behind the mask.
When Parker isn't snapping evil bones as a superhero, he snaps pictures as a civilian photographer for the Daily Bugle, working for cantankerous publisher J. Jonah Jameson. Peter Parker's classic girlfriends are Mary Jane Watson and his high school crush Gwen Stacy. Marvel occasionally depicts Felicia Hardy/Black Cat as Spider-Man's inconsistent girlfriend. Tom Holland, Andrew Garfield, and Tobey Maguire played Spider-Man in live-action. Marvel's Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse expanded the Spider-Man universe into multiple dimensions.
Which Spider-Man Are You?
If you've spent countless hours swinging through New York City's skyscrapers in your imagination or perfecting your wisecracks in the mirror, you're probably wondering which Spider-Man you are.

Well, web-heads, it's time to put those questions to rest and find out which Spider-Man truly matches your personality.

Web of Choices
In our journey through the "Web of Choices," we'll be exploring which qualities align you with a particular Spidey, from the trio of Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield, and Tom Holland, and discovering the superpowers and challenges that each Spider-Man faces.
Your Friendly Neighborhood Quiz
Ever felt like slinging webs across skyscrapers, or wished you had a Spider-Sense to alert you of impending danger? We've got you covered! Our quiz is like stepping into the shoes, or should we say, the suit, of your favorite Spider-Men. Each question tugs at the threads of your personality to match you with the Spider-Man that fits you like a glove.
- Tobey Maguire: The original big-screen web-head who defined the early 2000s with his heart and heroics.
- Andrew Garfield: The charming underdog with a skateboarder's grace and a knack for quick-witted banter.
- Tom Holland: The youthful embodiment of a modern superhero balancing high school and Avenger-level threats.
Suits and Superpowers
It's not enough to simply pick a suit; the real question is, what's your style of heroism? Each Spider-Man brings something unique to the table:
- Tobey's Suit: Emphasizes the classic red and blues. Remember the iconic raised webbing?
- Andrew's Suit: Darker tones with a dash of edge. Sleek and battle-ready, perfect for a nighttime prowl.
- Tom's Suit: Stark Industries tech meets spandex. Yes, we have that astonishing drone compatibility.
Their superpowers are far beyond your average party tricks. Let's see which set resonates with you:
- Web-slinging: Are you more of the swing-from-the-hip type, or do you plan your routes with precision?
- Spider-Sense: Is your intuition spot-on, or do you walk into the occasional glass door?
- Super Strength: Could you arm-wrestle your way out of problems, or are you more about avoiding conflict?
Choose your suit; each has its charm and capabilities!
Responsibility and Rivalries
The mantle of Spider-Man comes with a weighty slogan: "With great power comes great responsibility." Each of our web-slinging heroes faced it head-on:
- Tobey's Path: Battled Green Goblin's maniacal schemes while juggling MJ's heart and Harry's suspicions.
- Andrew's Clashes: Had run-ins with Electro's shocking personality and Rhino's... well, horniness.
- Tom's Ordeals: Unraveled Mysterio's illusions, proving himself a true hero in the MCU.
Their rivalries are as varied as their personalities. Which villain do you secretly admire or love to hate? After all, the quality of a superhero can often be judged by the caliber of their opposition. Choose wisely—your quiz result might just reveal your innermost superhero, or perhaps, a hint of villainy.

Peter Parker's Pals and Gals
Our web-head's not all about slinging webs and witty quips; the heart of Spider-Man beats for his dearly beloveds.
