Man Wearing Spider-Man Costume Meets Pope Francis
When Pope Francis meets with followers on Wednesdays, he is usually the most notable person at the gathering.
However, on a recent Wednesday, the Roman Catholic leader played second to another man. That man, Matteo Villardita, was made up to look like the famous Marvel Comic Book creation, Spider-Man.
He came to the public gathering to speak to the pope.
The 28-year-old Villardita appears as Spider-Man to cheer the sick children he visits in hospitals. He said he was going to see children later that Wednesday at Vatican City's hospital for children.
Villardita spoke with Pope Francis, asking him to pray for the sick children and their families. He also gave the pope an extra Spider-Man mask.
Wearing his costume, Villardita took photos with children in an open outdoor space inside the Roman Catholic Church headquarters.
The Vatican called Villardita "a really good superhero" and noted his good work during the COVID-19 health crisis.
Villardita reportedly made 1,400 video calls to children in hospitals over the last year while Italy was under COVID-19 restrictions. He said it was exciting to meet the pope who, in Villardita's words, "immediately understood my mission."

“蜘蛛侠”现身教皇公开接见活动
当教皇方济各周三与信众们会面时，他通常是聚会上最引人注目的焦点。
然而，在最近的一个周三，这位罗马天主教领袖却被另一个人抢了风头。这个人就是维拉迪塔（Matteo Villardita），他装扮成漫威漫画中著名的蜘蛛侠。
他来到公众集会上与教皇交谈。
28岁的维拉迪塔以蜘蛛侠的形象出现在医院为生病的孩子们加油打气。他说，他将于周三晚些时候前往梵蒂冈儿童医院看望孩子们。
维拉迪塔与教皇方济各进行了交谈，请他为生病的孩子和他们的家人祈祷。他还送给教皇一个蜘蛛侠头套。
穿着蜘蛛侠服装，维拉迪塔和孩子们在罗马天主教会总部的户外空地上自拍。
梵蒂冈罗马教廷称维拉迪塔是“一位真正优秀的超级英雄”，并指出他在新冠肺炎健康危机期间的出色工作。
据报道，去年在意大利因新冠肺炎封锁期间，维拉迪塔跟医院里的儿童视频通话多达1400次。他表示，见到教皇很令人兴奋，用维拉迪塔的话来说，教皇“当即就理解了我的使命”。
