Peter Wayne's parents were wealthy secret agents that were killed by Ra's Skull. He was raised by his aunt and uncle who never spent any of his parents money. He was very smart and created a special suit that would give him the abilities of a spider. He used it to become a wrestler and earn fame. At one of the matches, he was given the chance to stop a robber, but didn't.
One night when he went to a movie with his uncle, a thug stepped out of the shadows and shot his uncle and left. After his uncle's funeral, Peter was sitting in his room cursing himself for not stopping the thug earlier, when suddenly an irradiated bat crashed in the window and bit him, giving him the abilities of a bat. He then chose to use his powers and suit to become a creature of the night that would haunt and bring justice to criminals. He told his Aunt about this, who although disapproving helped him make a new costume.
