Welcome to my blog! Here, I hope to examine the Spider-Man character and story, and a few of their adaptations into other mediums. Originally featured in a comic of his own, The Amazing Spider-Man, the webslinger has been adapted many times into many different mediums: alternate comic series, films, television movies, cartoons, video games, and even theatrical plays. We're only going to look at a few of these mediums and adaptations to understand how he's been adapted over the years and whether it's been faithful or not. Below are links to the various adaptations discussed, though you can find them on the right side at any time.
