[QUOTE="Blastin, post: 3394840, member: 4989"] Spidy has been my hero/favorite character forever...followed the comics for about 10 years.... The quotes above about 10 tons are correct with two "buts" The first is that, just like every other comic character, the writers sometimes have him do more. One episode where he lifted a freight train car, many of him tearing off bank vault doors, ect. The other but is the big one. Spidy is afraid to USE his strength. Since he regularly fights non-super street thugs and doesn't want to kill them he always pulls his punches. When he fights the supers he just pulls them less. There are many times where he fights someone nasty and does the "can't pull my punches here. Got to hit him with everything." There was a very good arc with him and Wolverine where Logan gets Spidy so psyched out before a fight that Peter doesn't pull his punch against a normanl guy and kills him. There is another where he fights Juggernaut, hits him full strength, and Juggy just smirks at him;) Sorry for the threadjack;) [/QUOTE]
