How did Spider-Man get his super powers in the comic?

In the original comic book origin story, Spider-Man gained his powers from a radioactive spider.

Here's the breakdown:

* Teenage Peter Parker is a shy and nerdy science enthusiast.

* He attends a science demonstration at a high school where a radioactive spider escapes and bites him.

* The radioactive spider's venom mutates Peter's DNA, granting him superhuman abilities.

* These abilities include:

* Superhuman strength and speed

* The ability to cling to walls and ceilings

* Enhanced senses, especially spider-sense, which warns him of danger

This origin story has been adapted and changed over the years in different versions of the Spider-Man mythos, but the core elements remain the same: a radioactive spider bite and a young man gaining incredible powers.
