This article pertains to a Pure Good with more than one version who is Pure Good!

I never asked to be Spider-Man. And I never asked for these powers. I never knew it would mean a bashed up hand... a hard 9 p.m. curfew, no job and friends who all think I'm scum! It was all just a twist of fate. Bad luck. A random bug bite. Easiest decision I ever made. Except... Except I saved them. Spider-Man's no magic wand, but thanks to the web-head... Curt's cured, and Billy gets his father back. So what if nobody threw a parade? Spidey stays because Spidey's needed. For now, anyway.

Peter Parker, also known as Spider-Man is the main protagonist of the Marvel animated cartoon series The Spectacular Spider-Man and a titular minor character in Sony Pictures Animation‘s 24th full-length feature film Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.

This version of Spider-Man combines elements and stories from both the mainstream comics, Spider-Man: The Animated Series, Sam Raimi's Spider-Man films trilogy and the Ultimate Marvel comics.

He is voiced by Josh Keaton who also voiced Shiro in Voltron, the speaking voice of young Hercules in the Disney Adaptation and Jack Darby in Transformers: Prime.

What Makes Him Pure Good?

  • Fought off the symbiote when it went too far.
  • While he did let the Cat Burglar get away and inevitably kill his uncle, it's understandable as the manager, Sulivan Edwards, had cheated him out of a cash reward. In order for Peter to get the cash he had to sign a contract to get it which most likely involved him fighting matches around the world, which would result in him leaving his family and friends. So it's understandable that Peter didn’t want any of that as he just wanted the money to help his family.
  • Despite him murdering his uncle, Peter ultimately spared Walter Hardy and simply handed him over to the police when he could have dropped him to his death. Although he refuses to forgive him, it's pretty justified to say the least.
  • Defeated the Vulture, saving Norman Osborn's life in the process.
  • Defeated Doctor Octopus and stopped his plan from taking over not only New York City, but the world.
  • Although he did attack Electro when he didn't do anything harmful towards anyone, it was only because he thought Electro was a crook. Once he found out who Electro was, he immediately regretted jumping to conclusions. Although he ultimately failed, he tried to reason with Electro and genuinely wanted to help him. The same can be said with Molten Man as well.
  • Although he at first considered to use the Daily Bugle's prize money for the best Spider-Man's photo to buy a new camera for him instead of pay the house's bills, he later changed his mind and gave all of his money to Aunt May.
  • Tries to reason with some of his villains such as Electro, Molten Man, and Venom (Eddie Brock specifically).
  • Never resorts to murder when defeating his enemies. Although some of his methods can be a bit extreme such as dropping a building on Shocker and dehydrating Rhino, he doesn't have any intent on killing any of his enemies.
  • Although he was under the symbiote's influence and it wasn't entirely his fault for blowing off his friends when they were consoling him after they found out what happened to his aunt, he apologizes to them, knowing that they were trying to help.
  • Rejects Tombstone's job offer despite knowing he could've used the money offered to him which would've helped him and his aunt.
  • Rejects Green Goblin's team up offer.
  • Defeats Green-Goblin aka Norman Osborn and stops him from taking over New York City.
  • Unlike Eddie, who became corrupted into being Venom, he never gets corrupted by the symbiote.
  • When he tracked down his uncle's murder, instead of killing him, he spared him knowing that his Uncle Ben wouldn't have wanted it.
  • Although he did drop Tinkerer from a building this was only to get information of why he and Electro kidnapped Gwen. Plus he was only bluffing as he saved him twice and at the time so it more of a heat-up moment than a corrupting factor.
  • While saving Gwen from Doctor Octopus, Spider-Man also saved Electro despite almost forgetting about him because he was tired out from battle.
  • Although he didn't have an intent on killing Norman Osborn/Green Goblin and wasn't directly responsible for his "death", he felt responsible for not trying to save him.
  • Saves anybody he can from danger and death, even his enemies.
  • Before he considered giving up on being Spider-Man, he realized that Spider-Man was needed and despite knowing that his life wouldn't be perfect, he continued to be Spider-Man to protect New York from the many supervillains that would cause terror throughout the city.
  • Despite Eddie attempting to ruining his life as well as threatening him and his loved ones, he consoles him, telling him he is free and could stop having so much hatred when he loses the symbiote.
  • When George Stacy was killed sometime following the series' premature conclusion, he mourned his death.
  • Sometime before Across the Spider-Verse, he joined the Spider-Society, which was formed to protect the multiverse from dangerous threats.
  • In Across the Spider-Verse, he sympathized with Miles' pain and attempted to reason with him that he had to let his father die, seeing as to how the death of a police officer close to Spider-Man is part of the Canon Event which preserve the stability of the multiverse.

Trivia

  • Out of all Pure Good Spider-Men, this is the second one to come from a TV show with the 90s version being first.
  • It is unknown if he would have stayed Pure Good had the show continued, but at least from what has happened in Across the Spider-Verse, he hasn't shown any corrupting factors as of right now.
