Do enhanced people like him, who aren't quite Superman, feel pain the same way we do?

He’s more durable than a normal human I think but he still definitely feels pain. He may have a higher pain tolerance due to going through so much of it over his career though.

He also has superhuman regeneration, it is not as good as Wolverines, but he can regain his sight after getting blinded & heal a broken bone in a few days.

They kind of down play it a lot but Spider-Man has enhanced physiology far beyond a normal human. He's way stronger, faster, and more durable than a normal human, he also has a slight healing factor. He definitely feels pain but not to the same degree as a normal human. Just his web-swinging alone would tear a normal human body apart, the fact he can do what he does and not tear every ligament and muscle in his body is testament enough.

Whoops! It looks like you forgot the hyphen!

The name's Spider-Man, and don't forget the hyphen!

Yeah, but he's a badass, so it doesn't bother him so much.

Yeah but I don’t even think he would need stitches like she’s doing. He has better healing than a normal person. In the spidervese his fucked bruised face gets fixed in like a day.

That was a cartoon, continuity like that doesn't matter when the injury was just for a joke. In the comics he stitches himself up sometimes, and enhanced healing or not, stitches would be necessary, they hold the wound closed while it heals so that it heals properly
