Doubt that. He can probably build something but not replicate the accident. Maybe Doom or Strange - its magic. He was destined to become a Spider-man. Some sort of legacy or whatever.

Wow, that's some retcon.

Well, fair enough, if it's "destiny", then Tony simply replicates the manifestations (adhesion, "localised precognition" etc etc).

how is this still open...? 😕

Ridiculous in what sense? Reed didn't just make bold statement, he tested Pete's intelligence and said Pete got the same result Reed himself had at that age, Pym actually facepalmed himself because Pete effortlessly built something Hank had to work hard on.
Just because Pete didn't have to create anti-cosmic level threats guns every month doesn't mean he's not smart.

Yeah thats an option.

Be quiet. If Reed compliments you and you OUT PERFORM REED RICHARDS, that speaks volumes. Pym even states Spiderman is smarter than him. Just hush and stop.

Not whose powers you will like to have. 😠

Yup and 'being' Peter Parker is just not worth it.

Well then the thread is obvious and uninteresting. Consider my answers moot, and my confusion now resting on how this thread has made it 5 pages.

Peter isn't winning a invention feat war against guys like Tony, Pym, Reed etc etc etc.

Nobody here says he is (well except Pym lol) but the fact that both Pym and Reed aknowledge his smarts to the point they compare his intellegence to their own (Reed actually ran tests and Pete "tested right off the charts" matching Reed's own results) says a lot about his potential and suggests that with the right resources and time he could compete with them. Its been heavilly implied on more than one occasion.

I have no issue with that, and I'd agree that pete is a genius.

This.

Based off Pym even saying that speak volumes. Based off fts, of course Pym is smarter but that doesn't take away from all the acknowledgement Spiderman receives.

So you changed your mind. Okay then.

Does it bug people?

Pun intended?

As weak as it was, yes.

Honestly, considering the MASSIVE egos guys like Reed, Pym and Stark carry around, them giving Pete any kind of compliment on brains or tech does speak volumes.

I just read that if Stan Lee had a choice to be any superhero he would choose to be Tony Stark. Although I was certain he would've chosen Pete. But anyway who would you rather be...this includes their alter egos. To be honest, i really can't choose between the two. Stark got the billionaire, genius, playboy, and philanthropist thing going for him and Pete's a genius, dates a supermodel, and has cool powers.
all of Peter's romantic interests tend to come to dramatic and horrible ends. He also tends to get the short end of the stick i.e. selling his soul.
