Theme of Spider-Man :computer:by ~yctham

FULL VIEW, PLEASE!

This version is edited from the original version [link] , by using Adobe Photoshop CS. The color is “painted” by adjusting the color balance. Mainly I use cyan, green and blue for the color, and some yellow for highlight to avoid the drawing looks flat.

“With great power comes great responsibility”, actually, there is seldom people know that, is the theme for the “Spider-Man”. This is the spirit of Spider-Man himself, which empowers him to fight for justice for the citizens in New York City after having the “spider-like” extraordinary power and ability (because the bite of a radiated spider). In fact, it has a touching story behind the theme:

Peter's (Spider-Man's) legal guardian and beloved Uncle Ben was later killed by a thug that Peter had allowed to escape. Realizing that stopping the thief when he had the chance would have prevented his uncle's murder, Spider-Man devoted himself to fighting injustice, driven by the realization that "with great power there must also come great responsibility." This phrase (usually in the modified form "with great power comes great responsibility") has subsequently achieved widespread fame. (*adapted from Wikipedia [link]
