If Spider-man was invented today, people would call it copaganda.
“Friendly Neighborhood Snitch-ass.”
Cops hate him
Yeah, cause he takes all the fun parts of their jobs (catching bad guys, killing civilians) and replaces it with paperwork after they wait another hour for the guy in the web to be removable.
Introducing a new hero…. “Bullet Sponge!”
You may be onto something there
If Spider-Man was invented today he’d be considered a self insert. Jaded nerd gets super powers and constantly inner monologues he could beat up his bully
Maybe movies about school shootings will be this generation’s Vietnam films
he will, and it’s gonna be a single panel of suddenly the school shooter is wrapped in bodily or synthetic – depending on which spiderman – fluids.
prolly for spidey, this would just amount to a Tuesday side-quest.
American politicians then: “The solution to a bad man with a gun is a good man who can shoot really sticky stuff really far without getting tired”.
Unless he’s also the flash, I doubt it considering how rare they are.
