Even in the comics origin story Peter only realizes his powers should be a force for good after his selfishness allows a crime to happen just because he didn't get his way. This unfortunate decision directly leads to his uncles death.

Before this happened the only practical use of his powers were invested in trying to cash in.

Peter is not a saint. He is a flawed teen like all others just trying to figure things out.

Have to agree with you and Trebleshot on this one. The best part about Spiderman is he's the most human of all the super heroes to me. Tony Stark may be the only actual Human out of the Heroes without actual powers that is still among Earth's mightiest because of his armor, but you can hardly call a billionaire playboy philanthropist "normal" or relatable for that matter.
