They made Spiderman into a half hespanic half black kid. Their reason? They need to show the world they are multicultural.
I'm sorry? caucasian people don't have any cultures now? Spiderman was my very favorite comic growing up, now peter parker has to die, and a new latino/black kid has to take over, so that the minorities can see them selves in spiderman. What about the white kids?
To me it seems that everyday every company, country and person is afraid of being white, it might offend someone from another background.
Seriously what has the world come to, when we need to make sure that black and latinos are represented in a comic that is mainly produced for kids especially considdering that spiderman already had a black good friend and the characters were made like they were made nothing you can really do about it, except ofcourse killing off the main character..
Why does a COMIC COMPANY have to kill off it's main character and create a new one with a different skin color. If people like the comic it's not because of how peter parker looks. It's ridicolous.
This is about more than just a comic, this is just the straw that broke the camels back. All the people that still scream "Black people don't have equal rights" or "Racism" because you got caught shop lifting or what ever. Stop it. Caucasions are a "race" too. You don't see a white person screaming racism when he or she gets caught shoplifting. You ruin good things with your bullshit, because you make politicians nervous.

Mod Warning: Since this thread has gone a bit out of hand, I'm gonna be a little bit more strict (and I post this while there are already like 11 pages) ---> The point of the thread:
I want:I don't care that he is brown yellow blue black white pink or red. I care that they changed him because of political correctness.
Yes political correctness is the thing thats gone too far, atleast some are able to see what i meant.
* No racism
* No trolling
* No flaming
* No politics (Don't take this one too strict, constructive, on-topic politics CAN be okay.
Also, please report posts.
