AUTHOR'S NOTE

Did you know that Imagine Dragon's debut album Night Visions is actually based upon Peter Parker's origin story? Yeah, the music producer was doing concept music for the Broadway musical Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark and the demos were too good to pass up so...Radioactive is about the radioactive spider that bit Peter Parker. The more you know.
