History: (Spider-Man Magazine (I#17) (fb) - BTS) - Peter Parker was bitten by a radioactive bird.

(Spider-Man Magazine (I#17)) - Using newfound ability to project sticky nests, Parker became the adventurer Pheasant Man, battling foes such as Venom and the Lizard.

Comments: Created by Drew Springer.

Pheasant Man was the product of an article in Spider-Man Magazine (I#17) called "What If?," in which children drew their the answer to the question "What if Peter Parker had been bitten by a radioactive bird instead of a spider?" In Pheasant Man's case, he was created by then-11-year-old Drew Springer of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

Being that Pheasant Man is Earth-61613's Peter Parker, it's likely he possessed the same relatives, eye color and hair color that his Earth-616 counterpart had but there was no confirmation of this in-story. Since he existed on an alternate reality, it's equally possible that he did not have the same relatives and since he was never seen outside of his costume, it's possible he had a different hair and eye color. In addition, it was unrevealed if he weighed the same as his Earth-616 counterpart. Given that he was given bird-like powers, it's possible his bones became hollow to better adapt to flight so he might weigh less than his Earth-616 counterpart.

The issue of Spider-Man Magazine featuring Pheasant Man was not numbered but recent reprints of the comic strips from that issue in Adventures of Spider-Man & Adventures of the X-Men trade paperbacks identified the issue as #17.
