* OddFriendship: Cooper and Peter are complete opposites in terms of personality. Cooper is TheFashionista and CampGay who puts a great deal of effort into appearances. He's also gone on many, many dates since his falling out with Albert Moon and is a FieryRedhead who is passionate about his work. Meanwhile, Peter is clumsy, mellow, and dorky. His fashion sense is tacky enough to get him mocked on TV news even while he's being kidnapped. Even so, his kindness constantly earns Cooper's respect even through some awkward moments like accidentally ripping up Cooper's final project.
* ParentalAbandonment: Cooper's parents threw him out on the street when they learned of his homosexuality.

* AllWebbedUp: Cooper doesn't use web-shooters or spinnerets like most spider heroes. His webs appear magically between his fingers and he can weave them into any shape he can imagine, hence his superhero name.

''ComicBook/TheNightGwenStacyDied'' is easily one of the best-known ComicBook stories of all time, infamous for killing off Gwen Stacy, girlfriend of ComicBook/SpiderMan at the time. Though she's continued to live on in the MarvelUniverse since dying--usually in different forms and alternate universes--she's almost always been defined by her death being used as a means for Peter's character development.
