Synopsis:
Inspired by a piece in The Daily Bugle, Spider-Man goes to visit a young boy named Tim. The young boy has a trunk full of Spider-Man souvenirs. Spider-Man demonstrates his powers and tells Tim his origin. He even tells Tim about Uncle Ben. Most shocking of all, he tells Tim who he really is, but the very end of the story is the big reveal.
