Fake Spider-Man Facts Are Going Viral

Spider-Man does whatever a spider can, at least according to the theme song of the 1967 animated Spider-Man cartoon, but now some hilarious "fake Spider-Man facts" are going viral on social media crediting the friendly neighborhood webslinger with all sorts of attributes that are decidedly not canon.

The Hashtag Roundup twitter appears to be responsible, declaring on Sunday that "#FakeSpiderManFacts" would be the subject for this week's Fake Facts game. The timing of some questionable Spider-Man information is perfect, too, considering that a decidedly Spider-man-less Venom debuted in theaters this weekend.

Not that Venom needed Spider-Man to be successful. Despite some harsh critical reviews, Venom not only set a record for October openings, but the film has actually outperformed some of its cousins over in the Marvel Cinematic Universe -- including Thor and the first Captain America movie -- in terms of opening numbers. Of course, Spider-Man's origin movie still solidly beat out Venom, box office-wise so maybe that's why the fake facts are necessary.

From unusual relatives to new enemies to even some unusual powers, fans on Twitter have come up with some hilarious fake facts about Spidey. Want to see some of our favorites? Read on for more!
