Spider-Man Audiobooks

Over the last many years, Spider-Man has made a lot of different appearances in the universe of Marvel comics. Depending on the author, the superhero has changed a lot, but one thing that is constant the whole time was the character’s commitment to using his powers responsibly. 

We bring to you the list of best audiobooks on Spider-Man so that you can listen to your favorite superhero’s stories anytime and anywhere. 

What is so different about Spider-Man? 

Spider-Man brought something completely different when Marvel first launched the superhero. His character was not an alien, brilliant industrialist, super soldier, or a scientific genius like the other famous superheroes. He was an ordinary guy, a high-school student, a nerd who got his superpowers when a radioactive spider bites him. Hence, all his adventures and entire life is completely different from other superheroes.
