Description
When the troubling chaos of life presents you with unprecedented power from a random radioactive spider bite, what do you do?

At the core of this conversation is an unconventional coming-of-age narrative, a character who resonates with baby boomers and millennials alike, and a powerful meditation on the mantra: With great power, comes great responsibility.
