This is something that kills me. I couldn't give a damn about any lame comic book superhero, but I can never decide whether to laugh at these morons, or despise them for their mindless and unoriginal thought processes. "Spider-man has become stale! Hey I know what will spice it right up, what if he was Black!" how is that going to change anything? Spider-man will still be gay. If you are going to be entertained for two hours simply because spider-man is black, you are borderline retarded, and completely racist. That's right liberal pussies, it is racist. To give a guy a job solely based on the color of his skin, is racist to everyone involved.
Spider-man is stale not because we are used to white people, its because the idea was stupid in the first place, and there is only so many dilemmas can he have before it becomes redundant. Here is a wild idea, if you'd like to see a black super hero, write a fucking story about one. It is pointless to change a characters color after like 40 years of story-lines. They are only doing it to be self serving douche bags that can then say "I understand the plight of the black man. I fought for black spidey!" Hey I have an idea too, maybe we can remake 'A Raisin in the Sun' with an all white cast! The originality is genius. (if you ask me the story lacked believability the first time anyway, who's ever heard of a black family man?)
How would spider-man being black add anything to the story that couldn't be added to the current character?
