New Spiderman is now named Miles and could be gay in the future
Quote:
He started life as a white science geek living with his uncle.
But now to reflect the racial changes in America Spider Man has been given a makeover - as a half black half Latino teen.
Miles Morales has replaced Peter Parker as the face behind the famous webbed mask, Marvel Comics has revealed.
In the latest edition of the Ultimate Fallout series he pulls back the disguise and shows his face for the first time.
Fans will have to wait until the official Spider Man relaunch next month to find out how he came to be the superhero.
But another surprise could be in the pipeline after his creators said that in the future they would not rule out making him gay.
Peter Parker first appeared as the superhero in 1962 - having been bitten by a radioactive spider he found he developed the strength and agility of an arachnid.
He was killed off by the Green Goblin in June in a controversial move by Marvel which left fans aghast.
Morales was inspired to do good after learning of the death and in Ultimate Fallout issue four he dons the mask and gets into his first fight.
Marvel has revealed that he does have a connection to Parker in terms of how he got his powers but he will have different abilities beyond ‘Spider Sense’ and the ability to shoot webs out of his hands.
Parker's Aunt May and Gwen Stacy will also be in the plot to help him on his way to being a superhero.
'The theme is the same: With great power comes great responsibility,' Spider Man writer Brian Michael Bendis told USA Today.
'He's going to learn that. Then he has to figure out what that means.
'He's younger than Peter Parker, he's coming from a completely different background, a completely different world view.
'It's Peter Parker's death that inspires this kid to step up.'
Marvel's editor in chief Axel Alonso denied that having a black Spider Man was a publicity stunt.
What you have is a Spider-Man for the 21st century who's reflective of our culture and diversity.
'As someone who grew up on a steady diet of 'Luke Cage, Hero For Hire' and 'Shang Chi, Master of Kung Fu,' I am personally invested.
'This was a conscious decision. Here at Marvel, we pride ourselves on reflecting the real world in all its diversity.
'We think that readers will fall in love with Miles Morales the same way they fell in love with Peter Parker.'
Italian artist Sara Pichelli, who designed Spider-Man's new look, added: 'Maybe sooner or later a black or gay - or both - hero will be considered something absolutely normal.’
Not everything in the world of Spider Man has changed, however.
The Ultimate imprint is separate from Marvel's other comics - where Parker is alive and well.
Ultimate exists in a parallel universe where entirely different realities can take place, Marvel said.

I wish I was making this up but I'm not.;D

I think this just proves that alphabet titles in boxing are a good thing.
Now when people bitch and moan about fighter A and fighter B both having a belt, we will be able to reply, 'well there are two Spiderman's and one of them is a black bender'.

Fantastic I have always thought I would be a great spiderman. I have that look, but Jazz is likely a better shade of black than me. Clearly another thing to make Bilbo jealous. He would just be gay, couldn't be sipderman at all.

My movie is coming out in 2012 Miles.
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (2012) - IMDb
It will almost certainly be the highest grossing film of that year.
Try topping that you thin, spidery cunt.

Bloody capitalists! "Ooh mine, sold more than yours". Not the correct way to think at all. The world would be a poorer (or richer) place if everyone was like Floyd Mayweather.
But yes, it looks like a potentially good film. Obviously I am more excited about the new Superman.

Why, they haven't recreated him and called him Miles too have they? He's now a pale, angry lecturer living in Asia on a quest to wipe out bad English and fix the ailing music industry...

And don't forget about the quest to save Palestine and punch Obama in the head. As well as a short trip to the jungle and an ordeal with bloodsucking leeches.

A Spiderman who ran off when Green Goblin sent him a load of sad-clicks would be legendary ;D

It would a moment in the film when Spiderman has to do some serious soul searching. Heart rending stuff. Poor Spiderman riddled with self doubts and insecurities. "Why does everyone hate me?". Come on Spiderman, everything will be okay!
Re: New Spiderman is now named Miles and could be gay in the future
This is in the Ultimate Marvel Universe which is more for adult readers, Hulk is naked and eats people, scarlet witch goes out with her brother, Captain America is old fashioned red neck....

Remember, Superman stands for Truth, Justice, and the AMERICAN WAY!
Now and forever...these nutjob fairy writers need to pull their heads out of their asses!
Superman is an illegal alien. :)
