All we really know about this Spider-Man, the only inarguable fact, is that he rose to every single challenge presented to him. In the face of greed, evil and maliciousness, he stood his ground. Never asking for payment, never asking for reward, and when the winds of society blew against him, when we in the media tore into him like wild animals… he did not waver. Whether we liked him or not, whether we appreciated him or not, he stood up and was counted.
