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.
The Burglar — this unnamed small-time crook played an essential role in Spider-Man's origin. Spider-Man originally intended to use his powers for fame and fortune, but one day allowed a criminal to run past him. Soon after, the same criminal killed Uncle Ben -- and Peter learned that he could have prevented the death by using his powers more responsibly.
The Finisher is an assassin employed by the third Red Skull, Albert Malik. He killed Spider-Man's parents. Spider-Man kills him in self defense (Amazing Spider-Man Annual #5) by turning his own missile against him.
