Episode 25 of LRSM.  In the Silver Anniversary 25th episode, James B and Eddie compare the 1960's comic book to the first movie in which Peter Parker gains spider-like powers, including super-strength, enhanced reflexes, a "spider sense" that warns him of incoming danger, and the ability to climb walls and shoot spiderwebs (one example of a departure from the comics, where he utilizes web-shooters). Following a personal tragedy, he decides to use his newfound powers for good, and begins fighting crime and injustice as The Amazing Spider-Man.  All complaints should be addressed to Eddie at [email protected] and all compliments to James B on twitter @letsreadspidey.
