Bono has said that he and The Edge have a lot in common with the hero of their latest show, 'Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark'.
In an interview with MTV News, the U2 frontman joked that he and his bandmate see themselves reflected in the legendary character.
He said: "There are lots of similarities. He grew up in Queens. We grew up on the North side of Dublin - fairly humble origins.
"He falls in love with the girl next door. I married the girl next door. He starts to put on a silly costume... yes, I think Peter Parker's more The Edge. I'm more the Green Goblin, at least on a Friday night."
The Edge added: "He's a superhero; he can do loads of stuff, but when he comes home, he's put back in his place.
"There's nothing that he does out in the world that means anything when he's with his loved ones."
'Spider Man: Turn Off The Dark' opens on Broadway on 11 January 2011.
