World How can Spidey wall climb?

[SP1D3RxV3N0M]

I was thinking about this yesterday, how can Spider-man stick to walls with his suit on?

It's made of a thin enough material that he can stick through it. He also has the ability to stick using all parts of his body, not just his hands and feet.

Untrue, he can only use his hands and feet. For the life of me, I can't remember which issue it was, but there was a Spider- Man impersonator who stuck to the ceiling on his back at one point, and that was how the reader knew he was the impersonator.

You are right in terms of the thin material, though.

Spider Man is able to control the flux of inter-atomic attraction between molecular boundary layers. This ability is centered on Spider-Man's body, particularly in his hands and feet, with an upper limit of several tons per finger.

Sorry, but that's untrue. In one of the thirtieth anniversary issues, they go through all of his powers (via a conversation between Pete and MJ) and there is specific mention of him being able to stick with any part of his body. This also appeared a short while back when he carried a young girl out of a collapsing building by holding on to her with his back. I unfortunately don't have my comics with me here in Colorado or I'd give you the exact issue numbers (and possibly scans).

The girl sticking to Spidey's back was one of the issues of The Other, I believe it was either the last or the one before that.

Really? Thanks for letting me know. My bad. And I remember the issue with the little girl-- it was ASM #528.
