History
Tim Harrison was a terminally ill child who was a huge fan of Spider-Man. An article published in a newspaper caught Peter's attention and decided to visit the child at the Slocum Brewer Cancer Clinic. Spider-Man told Tim about his origin, his web-shooters, and took him to one of his night patrols. Peter even revealed his secret identity to Tim.[1] Later, Harrison succumbed to the illness. His brother Joey was grateful to Spider-Man for showing such kindness to Tim before he died.[2]

Notes

Trivia
- Tim Harrison was the basis for the character of Taina Elizando in the 1994 animated series, a similarly terminally ill child who wished to meet Spider-Man.
- Spider-Man would later visit another one of his biggest fans who was diagnosed with cancer by the name of Nathan, though unlike with Tim he wouldn't reveal his identity to the boy.[4]
