So just to get it out of my system, I put Spider-Man
and I feature him on the cover. I'm lucky
Martin didn't fire me on the spot. But in that story, I tried to heap as many problems
as I could on poor Peter Parker. Because I feel most people, even people
who seem to be happy, have problems. Spider-Man's got
the strength of 25 men and can walk on walls and swing
from building to building on his own web, but he still can't go out
and chase a villain because his old Aunt May says,
"It's raining out "and you might catch cold.
Better stay home tonight." I had not read any other superheroes who felt they wished
they could quit being a superhero. I made him a guy
who is very introspective. He questions, "Why am I doing this?"
