    Spider-man gets stronger as he gets older?

    I have thing nagging thought in the back of my head that at some point I saw a scan of someone stating that due to his physiology Spider-man gets gradually stronger the older he gets. Does anyone have a scan or any idea of where I may have seen this before? Because its driving me up the wall. I'm sure i've seen that somewhere at some point!

    He did originally get stronger due to the Other story arc, but OMD got rid of that.

    @strider92: Wellllllll way back in ASM Annual #1, Stan Lee kinda implied this in a section about where Spider-man falls in a strength comparison, when he mention that Spider-man hadn't reached full maturity. So that might be it.
