    I'd be down for it for the same reasons I'm down with Peter naming the moldy cheeses in his refrigerator.

    -Pav, who thinks Peter SHOULD be awkward...
    You were Spider-Man then. You and Peter had agreed on it. But he came back right when you started feeling comfortable.
    You know what it means when he comes back

Maybe Spiderman as this ceo can own a personal collection of one for enjoyment or scientific study purposes.
    I like it. Personally, I don't think there is anything creepy or weird with being an Arachnophile. I've loved Spiders as long as I can remember.

During and after The Other, all of those were increased, and he got new abilities like natural web-generating spinnerets in his wrists, stinger spikes/blades also coming out of his wrists laced with paralytic neurotoxins, night vision and increased sensitivity to vibrations and air currents like an actual spider, and a psychic connection to spiders. Then, as I said before, One More Day happened, and all those extra powers went away and his base powers went back to their default settings.
    Ahh, I miss the Other Powers. Actual Spider Senses, Spider Telepathy, Increased Speed and Agility. An expansion of the concept of Responsibility and Purpose as suggested by the Other.

    I don't miss all the Other Powers. Some like the Stingers seemed silly, Retractable Fangs would have made more sense. Peter is already incredibly strong; There isn't much need to increase his strength. Peter's new senses combined with his traditional Spider-Sense makes Night Vision extraneous when we consider that Peter had already gained increased sensitivity to vibrations and air currents; Which are the senses that real spider's use to navigate through the dark.
