Spider-Man coloring pages are featuring Peter Parker, Mary Jane Watson, Harry Osborn/Green Goblin and other characters from Spider-Man film. Try to guess who is who.
The film *Spider-Man*, which stars a young man bitten by a spider with frankly alarming radioactive credentials, is not just a tale of a fellow in tights swinging about New York in a manner that would make health and safety officers break out in a cold sweat. No, it’s a profound exploration of life's big questions, like “What on Earth do I do with all this responsibility I didn’t ask for?” and “How do I explain this to Aunt May without her fainting?” If Peter Parker’s story doesn’t make you ponder your own moral compass, it’s probably because you’re too busy wondering how he washes that suit.
At the heart of the web-slinging saga lies a lesson as sticky as Peter’s new superpowers: with great power comes great responsibility. This isn’t just a catchy one-liner—it’s the universe’s way of saying, “Look, you can shoot webs from your hands now, but you’d better use that for more than just getting the TV remote without getting up.” Peter’s transformation from a mild-mannered teenager into a hero with the weight of the city on his shoulders reminds us all that power, in whatever form it takes, isn’t for self-indulgence but for selfless action. Which is a shame for Peter, really, because swinging to school would have been a lot easier if he weren’t constantly stopping muggings.
And then there’s courage. Poor Peter finds himself facing villains so terrifyingly peculiar they could only have been dreamt up by someone under the influence of a highly radioactive cheese sandwich. Yet he persists, confronting his fears with the tenacity of someone who’s accidentally been assigned to clean out the school hamster cage. His example reminds us that bravery isn’t about being fearless—it’s about feeling the fear, putting on your web shooters and leaping off the tallest building you can find because, well, someone’s got to. And, as Peter would tell you between battles with malevolent lizard people, it doesn’t hurt to use your talents to help others while you’re at it. After all, every community could do with a friendly neighborhood Spider-Man—or at the very least, someone willing to untangle the metaphorical webs of life with a bit of heart.
