Character:
Man-Spider is a monstrous and terrifying form of Spider-Man that appears when Peter Parker suffers an advanced and uncontrolled mutation of his spider powers. This change occurs in several versions of the story, but is best known for his appearance in the 1990s animated series Spider-Man: The Animated Series.
In this version, Peter Parker begins to experience additional mutations after gaining his original powers. His condition worsens to the point where his body completely transforms into a hybrid creature, with eight spidery legs, jaws, and an appearance similar to that of a giant spider. In this form, known as Man-Spider, Peter loses his humanity and becomes a more instinctive and violent being, attacking anyone he perceives as a threat.
Man-Spider is a manifestation of Peter’s fears about losing control of his identity and his humanity due to his powers. The transformation is reversed with the help of other characters, such as Dr. Curt Connors (The Lizard) or the intervention of mutants like the X-Men, who work together to restore Peter to his human form.
