  Spider-Man geeks, rejoice!! You may not only get to live out your fantasy -- being Peter Parker and his alter ego -- but you can be a Broadway star!! Or, on the other hand, you can participate in a huge publicity stunt. They're making a musical out of Spiderman, complete with a new (to us, anyway) hyphen in the name. (Hey, a little research shows he's always had the hyphen. Who knew?) Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark has music and lyrics by Bono and The Edge, otherwise known as the two U2 dude
