10 Villains Spider-Man Has NEVER Defeated

Spider-Man has actually fared better against opponents three times his size much more often than you might think.

A lot of this has to do with the fact that Peter Parker is really smart, especially when it comes to knowing how to get under your opponents skin and irritate them enough to give you an opening.

The Hulk as well as the X-Men villain Juggernaut have both gone up against the wall-crawler and failed to bring him down. However, shockingly, another X-Men villain has fared a lot better: The Blob.

A lot of this, granted, has to do with the fact that the two just don't go head to head that often, The Blob not having much of a beef with Spidey compared to Juggernaut.

However, the one notable time they did fight - Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man #91 - Spidey had to enlist the aid of Black Cat to help him take the big mutant bruiser down. And even then, The Blob ends up getting away without getting caught in the end, so it doesn't really count as a full victory.
