COMICS/MANGA SATURDAY: DEATH OF SPIDER-MAN


Spider-man NU.jpg
"WITH GREAT POWERS COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY" by: Ben Parker(fiction). A statement that Peter Parker A.K.A Spider-man has lived by till his unpredictable death. Yes! The 51 years long series The Amazing Spider-man #700/The Ultimate Spider-man #160 was killed off (Disney takeover Marvel..Low Blow Bitches). A really sad moment in Marvel Universe indeed.
I know! that readers of Spider-man had to notice the way he died. In both The amazing spider-man and the ultimate spider-man, he was ganged up like bullies to a nerd. Wow! that way of death could not surprise me more. I guess uncle Ben was not able to finish his statement, and wanted to say "But With Great Power Comes Great Death". As much as I like change, I really think they could have found a different way to "Move Forward" with spider-man rather then killing him off. I haven't read #700 or #160 but I just finish reading one of the next issues of Ultimate Spider-man Fallout #4 which welcomes the NEW ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN (black and red spiderman costume) Miles Morales. Miles, who is a teenager of African American and Latino descent, who possesses powers similar to those of the original Spider-man from a genetically engineered spider bite by Norman Osborn in an attempt to duplicate those very same abilities. After reading this issue, I have to say that I am very intrigue to where this New ultimate spider-man can go. Well that is all for now, but before end my insight on the Death of Spider-man. I will leave you with this: "My President is Black and Spider-man is too"
