Swinging into the #1 slot as the greatest marvel superhero of all time, we have the one, the only, the Amazing Spider-Man! Though he was introduced later than other popular characters on this list, Peter Parker, the Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man is arguably the greatest of all Marvel's heroes.

Ask a random person who they think of when they hear DC Comics and you will likely hear Batman or Superman... ask the same question of Marvel and the answer will almost always come back as Spider-Man. His rise in popularity mirrored that of the publisher such that he quickly became iconic of Marvel Comics with his signature eyes and web pattern spotting up alongside the company's logo for decades.

With three feature film franchises, more video games than we can count, thousands of comics spread over multiple series, and more toys than anyone could possibly collect, Spider-Man stands well above the rest within the Marvel Universe.

He may not be the most powerful, he may not have the most money, but Peter Parker has been an enduring character for more than 50 years. Even after passing the torch to Miles Morales for a while, both characters remain as some of the most beloved the publisher has ever created.
