Many Spider-Man adaptations portray Harry Osborn as Peter Parker's best friend. But if you read the comics, you'll see that there's one group of superheroes he knew longer than Harry. The Fantastic Four. Throughout his life as a superhero, he's been constantly rivaling and teaming up with him. Here, I'll talk a little bit about their history.

The Human Torch was supposed to be in Spiderman and his Amazing Friends along with Iceman. But the producers could not get the rights to use him. So they settled to making up a superhero just for the show, Firestar. I imagine that Spiderman and his Amazing Friends with Spiderman, Iceman and the Human Torch would have been pretty awesome.

Not to mention the fact Johnny left in his last will that Peter should replace him in the Fantastic Four in case he died (during the Future Foundation storyline) is truly a way to showcase how much their relationship is like... which is why I hate the modern Spiderman writer. Not just for the whole Paul fiasco self incert nonesense... but also for what they made Johnny as. For someone who was like Peter's brother from another mother, he sure didn't believe Peter right away when he was in a time of need and didn't watch out in his powers when he tried to hit him.

It is a shame the comics of Spiderman and the Human torch were barely referenced in the main issues of the amazing spiderman. His friendships with Daredevil, Captain America, Wolverine and Human Torch always get overlooked. Despite the fact they were indeed close. And sure he knew Ironman, Dr Strange and Mr Fantastic, but he wad never as close with them

I don't think he likes Iron Man all that much after Civil War... They're on good enough terms now, but I don't think they can really be close again. I wouldn't say he's all that close with Cap though. Definitely a strong mutual respect, but it's almost like he looks up to Cap too much to be close friends with him. Cap is his role model. I'd say he gets along pretty well with Doctor Strange, although he doesn't enjoy the mystic shenanigans that come with it. They're both Ditko creations so writers love throwing them together. Most notably they had ASM 500, "Happy Birthday." And I think their first team-up was Amazing Annual #2 waaaaay back in the 60s (I think it was a Lee/Ditko?) Not as early as Torch, Daredevil, or the Hulk (well he FOUGHT the Hulk), but still pretty early. Actually, I think he has a pretty good relationship with Hulk as well. In Amazing Annual #3, Spider-Man almost joined the Avengers, but they asked him to help find the Hulk. He ran away before they could explain that they wanted to help the Hulk, not hurt him, and when Spider-Man went after Hulk he realized he was just some dude who wanted to be left alone and wasn't actually dangerous. So he just lied to the Avengers and ran away again. I guess it's a bit of an idiot plot, like it's just one big understanding, but I kinda like that this is why he never joined the Avengers haha. (Also of note... Daredevil had a cameo in that issue, where he vouched for Spider-Man to the Avengers.)

I want it to happen... but Disney is still a thing. It would've been better to pair up Toby Maguire with Fantastic 4's (2000s) Human Torch to be good friends. It would've been a good crossover, and it would elevate the Fantastic 4. Marvel needs to embrace its entire universe in a new way so there can be room for the main heroes to crossover. Venom fighting Wolverine, Hulk fighting The Thing, The Fantastic 4 meeting the Black Panther, and all the fun poker games in between. Marvel can be fun, but Disney chooses not to be.

@@Xavier-the-voodoo-king The relationship between Peter and Johnny might be more casual because they're closer in age, it would be weird if a lawyer constanly hangs out with a college student anyways. But Peter and Matt have something unique, they bond from trauma. Matt chose to go to Peter first when he needed someone to confide in on many occasions, even before Foggy. Or Peter would reach out to Matt as soon as he feels something off. Peter even once mentioned that they shared something no one else can understand. Another interesting aspect of their relationship is how it develops through decades under the pens of various writers. In the early days Matt kinda saw Peter as an endearing younger brother, someone he thought was impressive but still needed guidance. There was a shift in their power dynamic later on as Matt grew to accept Peter as his equal, someone he can lean on and even look up to at times.

One of my favorite things about Spider-Man is that he seems to be liked by most other heroes. Like, even Wolverine (the embodiment of "Leave me alone") asked him to be with him on his birthday. He's just a nice kid with a good attitude and they probably see that as a breath of fresh air.
