Yep you read it right, your friendly neighborhood
Spiderman is from the 'hood now!
Brooklyn to be exact! In a retelling of
Spiderman's origin,
Marvel's new direction after the death of
Peter Parker was to pass the touch to a half
Black half
Hispanic teen named
Miles. I applaud the move being that
ALL races should view a hero as just that...a
HERO! Not base it on skin color. So after a Black President (the leader of the free world) why can't the most recognizable superhero (next to
Superman &
Batman) be a person of color? I say f**k it why not? I just pray the writers keep it tasteful. No "
Yo son, whenever I wear the suit chicks be on my WEB!" and none of that
"Hey shorty, You know I swing both ways right? Uptown & downtown...Holla!" Or corny lines like
"I'm off the wall like MJ baby!" Now let's see how long it takes
Hollywood to cast a
BLACK ACTOR as
Spiderman. Even switch it up and have a black nerd from the South bit by a radioactive mosquito (in
NYC it would probably be a bed bug)! Oh yeah I forgot, it
HAS to be a spider right.
DUH!
