Characters
Main Recurring Villains
 * Peter Parker/Spider-Man: The slinger himself, Peter Parker's story is one of the most famous hero origin stories in the world. In fact, he is one of the most famous heroes in the world period.
 * Harold "Harry" Osborn: Peter's older 16 year old friend and the rich kid of the school. Harry's father is none other than the rich and famous Norman Osborn, owner of OsCorp.
 * Gwendolyne "Gwen" Stacy: Peter's long time friend and his crush. Gwen and Peter have a lot in common, including a love of pop culture and an obsession with science
 * Eugene "Flash" Thompson: The school bully and the best football player at Midtown High. He isn't considered a true antagonist as he is actually willing to speak with the "losers" of the school, though he denies he ever did.
 * Anthony "Tony" Stark/Iron Man: The owner of Stark Industries and Peter's personal hero. No one knows Stark and Iron Man are the same person except those closest to him.
 * Norman Osborn/Green Goblin: A genius and the owner of OsCorp, Norman created a gas that he used on himself multiple times to gain super human strength, speed and stamina.
 * Otto Octavius/Doctor Octopus: A formerly kind older man, Otto was driven mad after an extremely large explosion that fused Otto's mechanical arms to his back and caused brain damage that numbed Otto's ability to feel compassion.
 * Curtis "Curt" Connors/Lizard: A government scientist working on a way to regrow lost limbs much like a lizard. Connors' experiments went horribly wrong, as the formula regrew his arm but also transformed Connors in to a beast who can do nothing but destroy.
 * Adrian Toomes/Vulture: A former OsCorp employee who was fired for stealing technology from the company. Using his stolen tech he created a suit he can use to fly. Unlike most other villains, Toomes believes Spider-Manis just a minor annoyance and considers his true enemy Norman Osborn.
 * Maxwell "Max" Dillon/Electro: A classmate of Peter's who was a jock and a school bully, though in Dillon's case he was far worse than Flash Thompson, as he physically beat his classmates and picked fights with the toughest kids at the school. This made him doubly dangerous when he became Electro, man of a million volts.
 * Flint Marko/Sandman: Legally changing his name from "William Baker", Flint Marko is an infamous criminal that Spider-Man faced a few times in his first few years. However, he never posed a real threat until he accidentally wandered in to a desert where a strange machine was tested. Flint's cells where fused with the sand, granting him shape shifting abilities.
 * Sergei Kravinoff/Kraven the Hunter: Sergei Kravinoff is a Russian hunter obsessed with fighting bigger and bigger enemies. Acording to Kraven himself, he is faster than a cheetah, stronger than a bear, mightier than a shark and has defeated rampaging elephants.
 * Quentin Beck/Mysterio: Quentin has been a henchman to a few other villains, including Doc Ock, but he never showed himself to be the true threat he is until he became the menace known as Mysterio. As Mysterio, Beck shows off his skills by creating illusions and robots that make it seem like he has magic.
