A variety of topics--from the superhero's sarcasm to the science behind radioactive spiders--are discussed in essays on \"Turning Rage into Responsibility: A Psychology of Loss,\" \"Love Is Selfish: Can a Hero Afford Personal Attachments?,\" and \"Self Identity and Costume Design.\" The popular rival Green Goblin, the bumbling-yet-influential media, and the part New York City itself plays in stories are skillfully explored, as is the overall philosophy of mild-mannered Peter Parker and Spidey's relationship with the rest of the characters in the Marvel universe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gerry Conway\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1933771062\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781933771069\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Benbella Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/08\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.94h x 6.28w x 0.59d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2007 pg. 173","brand":"Gerry Conway","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44245333967103,"sku":"9781933771069","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_265d7573-e01d-41fa-a52c-43cf2d2b14f1.jpg?v=1693927445","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/webslinger-gerry-conway-9781933771069","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
