Spider-Man has been a mainstay and icon of the comic book world ever since he swung onto the scenes in August of 1962. The all-powerful and spandexed alter-ego of Peter Parker is renowned for flipping around typical hero situations by bringing the teenager out of the sidekick role and into the main spotlight, and in doing so, bringing along all of the issues and anxieties of a 15-year-old boy. Spider-Man is not your typical hero – he’s not rich, self-assured, or particularly cool. He’s just a normal boy from Queens, NYC, who got caught up on a bad and mad world, courtesy of a little spider bite. And that’s why we love him.
Over the years, the figure of Spider-Man has amassed a staggeringly dedicated following. From his early days in the Amazing Fantasy comic books, though to his TV cartoon debuts, and onto his blockbuster outings portrayed by Tobey Maguire, Alex Garfield, and Tom Holland in the MCU, he’s been Amazing, Spectacular, and Ultimate, in universes singular and multiple – but at the centre of it all, he’s always been the friendly neighbourhood hero.
If you’re looking to celebrate the legendary superhero of Spider-Man, or know someone who’s a Spidey-fanatic, then we’ve got you covered. We’ve rounded up the best Spider-Man gifts around, collecting together stunning art books, figurines, t-shirts, and posters that are sure to put a smile on a fans face.
