Superman is cool, Spidey is not

^ NO you're wrong!

superman is so powerful he is not scared to look like a complete jackass in tights

Superman was born on a different planet, faster a speeding bullet, can move mountains, and can fly

One makes money at the box-office, the other can't

um spiderman is from earth, superman is not.

I was going to say superman has always been really great looking but that might be a matter of taste, and tv.

that's cold but it's funny

It's the average looking ones that deliver best, in every sense

I'll tell you what makes them equal: they are two superheroes that, despite their awesome, unstoppable powers, are obsessed with getting a civilian job

ergo, they're fools, lol

First of all, Superman is really Kal-El, an orphan from the planet Krypton which disintegrated when the star it orbited around went supernova. When he arrived on Earth, because the star the Earth orbited around was yellow and had burned a little longer than other stars, it gave him natural abilities far greater than the average human. As for Spiderman, he really is a nerdy dude named Peter Parker who was bitten by a radioactive spider, and the venom caused his genes to mutate, giving him the ability to do things spiders do, like cilmb walls and make webs.

No, actually what makes them fools is the fact they both want to work for newspapers. The newspaper is a dying industry; they should be trying to get jobs in cable TV news.

Tabloid Junkies

uuuuh, Clark Clent could easily move to online newspapers, and Spidey works as a photographer, and online newspapers will always need pics, lol

that said, they're still fools

Can't they just "work" together? and save the world

They're both nerds by day and tight-wearing superheroes by night is probably the only similarity.

The differences?

One can fly with a cape and another uses a web?

Spiderman is the alter ego of a man, but Superman's alter ego is an man

Who the hell is "Clark Clent"??

I saw the coolest chart in WIRED that explained the differences between all the supes!

I can't find that one, but I got this from a quick google

Superman is from DC comics (most of these guys wear capes)

Spiderman is from Marvel these guys bare it all in their close fitting outfits.

I think I like that fact. "No capes."

Superman is a reflection of American nationalism in my opinion.

Spiderman is a reflection of post-pubescent teenage fantasies to be something more than they are.

Spiderman is far more interesting to me than Superman. I remember when watching the old Superman T.V. shows (the black and white ones), I wanted superman to get his ass kicked so many times it wasn't even funny.

Yeah I'm more on the side of Spiderman lol

Superman was too cocky lol "I can get hit by a bullet and not die!"

Spiderman doesn't have an ice cream.
