00:00Just a normal guy.
00:30I was sitting at my desk trying to think of a new power, and I saw a fly crawling on the
00:41wall.
00:42And I said to myself, wow, what if I had a superhero who could crawl on walls or stick
00:48to a ceiling like a fly?
00:54Teenagers, raging hormones, they never change.
01:23My publisher said, Stan, you've lost it.
01:25He said, first of all, nobody likes spiders.
01:28You can't call a hero Spider-Man.
01:30Secondly, a teenager can't be a hero.
01:33He can only be a sidekick.
01:35And lastly, he said, you say he's got all kind of problems.
01:39Don't you understand, Stan?
01:40He's a hero.
01:42Heroes don't have problems.
01:51This is your chance, Peter.
01:53Kiss her.
02:06And I know I'm not your father.
02:08Then stop pretending to be.
02:09Part of the reason why I love Spider-Man so much is that he's relatable, and he's relatable
02:14because he's a kid in high school.
02:15You're the Spider-Man from YouTube.

03:01Cool Spidey outfit.
03:05Thanks.
03:08Where'd you get it?
03:11I made it.
03:21You know, it was my first ever Halloween costume when I was a three-year-old.
03:32The first character I really fell in love with.
03:42Hey, is this anybody's bike?
03:44No?
03:45Hey, buddy, is this your bike?
03:47Did not change.
03:51Hey, buddy, did not change.
03:54Hey, buddy, did not change.
03:56Hey, buddy, did not change.
03:58Peter, these are the years when a man changes into the man he's going to become the rest
04:27of his life.
04:28Just be careful who you change into.
04:29Remember, with great power comes great responsibility.
