I keep thinking how much more powerful the Spiderman origin story would be if Peter Parker was an African American kid, whose Uncle Ben was shot by police while being arrested for a minor parking infraction. There is no formal investigation, and Peter decides to put himself on the line to prevent it happening again. He tackles the white crimes that go unpunished, punishes POC criminals fairly. He is the leveler, always fighting to be without bias, to be just. To protect people like his uncle. 

This not only mirrors so much of what’s happening in America, but feeds right into the complex relationship between Spiderman, the authorities and the media. 

Peter Parker is a brilliant student, awkward, a nerd, but is branded a thug, a gang member, a criminal, because of his appearance. The media latch on to that and misrepresent him totally.

The police, humilitated by the fact that he refuses to work with them and often punishes cops themselves for brutalizing innocent people, or guilty people who still deserve better treatment than they get, attempt to hunt him down.

I have never wanted POC Spiderman/Peter Parker as much as I want it now

That sounds like a story I’d love to read, but…that isn’t Spider-Man. I mean, how does it tie in the whole “great power/great responsibility” schtick?

Police are given power and use it irresponsibly. Black Spiderman fixes that with using his own power responsibly. 

Still needs something…I mean, main-comics Parker is motivated by his failure. He could have saved Ben by acting earlier, but didn’t.

Uncle Ben still gets murdered. His motivation is to balance out the justice system by capturing crooks of all types. Including ones that have badges.

Yeah, but that’s not a personal failure on Peter’s part.

Maybe he starts out as a hero and is a media darling - good press, supported by the cops - and THEN, after he’s basked in the fame and adulation, Ben gets murdered.

And Peter starts to pay attention. He goes after the cop who did it. He assembles evidence. And it all gets ignored. He goes after the cop directly, and all that praise from before turns ugly. That’s when the cops start hating him.

So seeing injustice in the world and his father figure dying in his arms because of the injustice isn’t grounds for him to take up being a vigilante because the cops won’t do shit about crime and actually do crimes?

this is how I see their entire relationship

HE’S SLEEPING WITH AN EAGLE

ex-depressed:

why billboards had women in thier underwear, but I couldn’t wear a shirt that showed my belly to school.

why my brother’s friends could joke about having sex with me, but I was grounded if I made the innuendo joke about the couch.

Why all the women on TV were allowed to walk with confidence, feel sexy, and know they were beautiful, but when I tried it I was bitchy, selfish and vain.

Why I was supposed to hide my pads in the garbage, because my period was disgusting.

…If you care about your stupid friend so much why don’t you tell him not to steal other people’s characters.

BUTTHURT KEEP TALKIN TO THE BUTT CAUSE I FEEL NOTHING, DEAL WITH IT, YOU SHOULD FEEL NOTHING TOO. 

he cant draw anyways. which is the reason for not making anything, adding hes having trouble with outside life, which he doesnt have anything else to relate to other than Doctor Whooves and Happy.

Nice

THOSE ARE FUCKING EXCUSES! DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG IT TOOK MISSY OR JITTERS TO DRAW THE WAY THEY DO!? DON’T YOU DARE SAY THEY CAN’T DRAW BECAUSE THAT IS JUST A FUCKING EXCUSE. IT TAKES YEARS TO LEARN HOW TO ART AND NOT DOING IT BECAUSE YOU THINK YOU CAN’T IS JUST YOU BEING FUCKING LAZY. EVERYONE HAS THE POTENTIAL TO DRAW. DON’T LIVE OFF OF THE YEARS OF PRACTICE OF SOMEONE ELSE.

total butthurt, if you actually listen to other people, empathy, ever hear of it? its not just all about you, but your feet in somebody elses shoes, changing personality and life, go through his experiences, stop assuming because what you believe may not be true. 

No, fuck you. If you or your friend want to draw, then draw. keep drawing and don’t stop. What you need to stop doing is relying on the works of someone who spent years developing her style.

Also, newsflash, NOBODY IS OBLIGATED TO BE NICE TO YOU. Especially if you keep being trying to defend someone using the hard work of someone else and say the actual artist, the one who is making the things that your friend is using without permission, is wrong or shouldn’t be offended.

dude, its done and over with, shut up and forget it, its just life, deal with it. 

No, fuck that mindset. Yes life sucks but you don’t have o sit around and get through it. You have to go out there and make it better.
