The Best And Worst Day Of Spider-Man's Life
And how his happiest moment, somehow became his worst.
When it comes to the Marvel Universe, not many characters can claim to have had a more difficult time of things than Peter Parker.
Unfortunately for everyone's favourite Friendly Neighbourhood wall-crawler, part of what makes him such a relatable character lies in the fact he faces a lot of every day issues.
