Featured here is a chronological list of story arcs in the comic book series Ultimate Spider-Man, created by Brian Michael Bendis and Bill Jemas, and drawn by Mark Bagley until Stuart Immonen replaced him. Ultimate Spider-Man is a teenage drama, in background contrast to the adult Spider-Man in the Marvel continuity. Ultimate Spider-Man Power and Responsibility (#1–7) Published: October 2000 – May 2001 Creative Team: Brian Michael Bendis (writing) / Mark Bagley (art) Plot outline: During a field trip to Osborn Industries, Peter Parker gets bitten by a genetically-mutated spider. The spider was part of the scientific experimentation there and had been injected with a formula that Norman himself had created called OZ. Kong, one of Peter's classmates kills the spider before anyone could retrieve it. Norman Osborn decides to track Peter's progress as he now has the last of the formula in his blood. After several instances of fainting and displaying extraordinary strength and reflexes, Peter realizes the bite gave him spider-like powers. On one occasion, Peter accidentally breaks Flash Thompson's hand when he tries to fight him, a bully who has been tormenting Parker for years. When Flash's family attempt to sue, Peter becomes part of a local wrestling circuit as the masked "Amazing Spider-Man" to anonymously pay for his Aunt May and Uncle Ben's legal fees. Peter also gets his Spider-Man suit courtesy of the wrestling organization, although it isn't finished yet. Peter does not reveal this secret double-life to anybody, not even his crush Mary Jane Watson and friend Harry Osborn. Peter flees the wrestling organization after being accused of stealing. Peter returns home where his aunt and uncle berate him for his failing academic grades and for his change in attitude. Angry and confused, Peter runs away and spends the night at Kong's home before going to party, where Ben finds him and tries to take him home. Ben informs Peter of the "with great power, comes great responsibility" ethos that Peter's father abided by. Peter is angered that his father was never there to tell him that himself, and runs off to contemplate Ben's words. More angry and tired, he allows a burglar to escape after robbing a deli owner, but upon returning home, he finds that Uncle Ben had been murdered. Peter tracks down Ben's killer, subdues him, only to find out he is the same burglar he had let get away earlier.
