Why did Stan Lee add a hyphen to Spider-Man’s name?

Answer : Stan Lee added a hyphen to Spider-Man’s name to distinguish him from Superman. He wanted to ensure that readers wouldn’t confuse the two heroes, especially since they both wore red and blue costumes and had “man” in their names. Lee explained this in 2010, stating, “Spidey’s official name has a hyphen – ‘Spider-Man.’ Know why? When I first dreamed him up I didn’t want anyone confusing him with Superman!”
