In The Amazing Spider-Man #6, Peter Parker himself reveals his greatest enemy, and it’s not Green Goblin or Doctor Octopus. He is someone he knows very well.
Spidey meets Jimmy is a backup story in The Amazing Spider-Man#6, Marvel’s 900th Spider Man comic question. Created by Jeff Loveness and Todd Nauck, fans will see Spidey confess his deepest thoughts to Jimmy Kimmel. Yes, the Webslinger appears in the evening episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live!
The host asked Spidey a number of interesting questions, including his best and worst villains. The young superhero answered “Scorpion” as his greatest enemy while his worst is… himself. “I guess…me? My life choices in general?“, replied Spidey.
Spider-Man’s worst enemy is his bad choices in life
Peter Parker is well known for having bad luck that follows him everywhere. He struggled to make money at his job, had a turbulent relationship with Mary Jane, and worse, his Uncle Ben passed away. Fans even saw the hero fight in the clone saga series.
In the recent issue of The Amazing Spider-Man, created by Zeb Wells and John Romita Jr., Peter finds himself struggling to make money again and worse, developing a rift between him and his Aunt May (Mary Jane and the Fantastic Four included). In one of the five issues, Mary Jane finds a new partner whose children call her “Mom”.
It’s true that many events in Peter Parker’s life are caused by his “bad choices” and that wherever he goes, someone is always hurt. The twist of fate is too cruel for a young man who just wanted to do good for his neighborhood.
The same problem of The Amazing Spider-Man #6 will also feature the story of our favorite Webslinger battling the Living Brain, one of his earliest enemies.
