    Peter Parker was bitten by a radioactive spider as a teenager, granting him spider-like powers. After the death of his Uncle Ben, Peter learned that "with great power, comes great responsibility." Swearing to always protect the innocent from harm, Peter Parker became Spider-Man.

    How many people know about the Spider-Sense?

    I got a little confused with the actions of Spider-Man.. often is it implied that no one but Aunt May and MJ know about his Spider-Sense and what it does, but I recall him mentioning it several times to other heroes in stories as old as the 'Secret Wars'. Then, decades later, in 'Civil War' he mentions no one else knows about it again. Hence my confusion caused by these contradicting scenes. Was everybody elses' knowledge retconned/erased along with Peter and MJ's marriage by the writers/Mephisto?

    New Yorks memory has been erased like 3 times over the years. Yes everyone who knew about the spider sense or new his secret identity has forgotten it. Of course now he has lost his Spidersense so he is leanring Kung fu to supplement his abilities.

    @DEGRAAF: He lost his powers due to a device he activated to halt Spider-Slayers with a Spider-Sense of their own, but since he was in the radius of the pulse when it went off, he lost his own Spider-Sense as well.

    Anyway, due to the current events in Spider-Island, I think that nearly all inhabitants of New York now know that among the various Spider-powers, there's a Spider-Sense.

    @ShirEPanjshir: Gosh that must suck for ol' Petey. Not only is he the only Spider-person in New York who is without a Spider-Sense, but even if he does get his back everybody will already know about it.

    @TheCrowbar: Argh I actually searched that on CV lol. Puh-lease, 'One More Week' would just take away most of the emotion and pressure caused by knowing you have only one day left together with the one you love.

    @TheCrowbar: excellent use of disdain.

    Marvel needs to get over aunt may. No death could be less surprising
