Peter Parker (Spiderman):
Peter Parker is an unlikely hero, not too dissimilar from our own protagonist. Parker is a shy, nerdy high-school student who is, essentially, just a normal young man. They are both underestimated by those around them.
Though these are all similarities, the main difference between Parker and our Rookie Hacker is the origin of their abilities. Peter Parker gained his abilities by accident, without his awareness. Our protagonist's abilities are purely down to him teaching himself and his own natural flair. I think this represents our character as a diligent, hardworking person. His abilities are also vastly more believable: his strengths lie in his own intelligence. I believe that this element of normalcy (at least in comparison with Spiderman) will allow the audience to relate to his character on a much more personal level, which will make sure that the audience roots for him throughout the movie.
Our protagonist and Parker share some visual similarities - they both wear glasses and plain, casual clothes.
