As the old theme song goes, Spider-man can do anything a spider can.
He can spin webs that catch thieves like flies, he’s strong and he can swing through the air on a thread.
Oakland Meadow School student Jacob Mongtoya is getting a chance to test out those claims about Spider-Man after Central Gwinnett High Schools students helped turn him into the Marvel Comics hero for Halloween as part of the Magic Wheelchair program. Mongtoya got to reveal his costume to his classmates during a presentation at the school on Friday afternoon.
