Spider-Man is about youth, and it’s difficult for a character to be about youth when he has a child of his own. That’s a fundamental difference from Sue, Wolverine, Luke and whomever else.

BWA HA HA!

Oh, this canard never gets old.

It’s like no one at Marvel can realize Peter graduated high school in the mid 1960s, and left university studies in the early 1980s. And he now has a frickin’ Ph.d he didn’t earn, & runs his own company he didn’t build! He hasn’t been a “youth” in over thirty years.

But sure, Spider-Man about youth. Not how to handle the responsibility that comes with great power, oh noes.

I just hope they serve this canard a l'orange in the Marvel cafeteria. It must be getting really difficult, this constant regurgitation. Hopefully the sauce makes the burning taste better going back up.

And I’m also hoping this being couched as “Spider-Man” and not as Peter Parker may mean it’s being applied to Miles only….as Miles is the only Spider-Man who can be called “young.”

Still, it’s a canard well past its prime.  

Can we see Peter as a teacher on screen? Please????
