Damn this is news to me. Anyone know how this went down in the comic universe?

Ultimate Spiderman has always been awesome, and I have full faith that they'll keep up the great quality in this series.
I'm glad they're still using the Ultimates universe to mix things up and try out new stories and characters.

I'm going to go out and buy some comics when I get back to Greensboro. I want to find out how Peter bit it. Also want to get back into comics. I heard the Ultimate X-Men are sometimes controlled by Professor Xavier...that's all kinds of great. 'Jean...show me your bewbs *mind control*...'. Ahhh...yes.

I think people are backlashing more because he's not Peter Parker than anything else. The same shit happened with Ben Reilly, even though he's a goddamn CLONE of Peter Parker, and this is an entirely non-Peter Parkerian dude. My opinion: whatever man. Good to see some different Spider-men, we already know Pete's story. I liked Spider-Man 2099.

Man, there was this really awesome fan-comic of a little boy with shitty parents who kept getting visited by Spiderman, and at the very end he found out Spiderman was black, too, and he was like, awwe I'm inspired. I think Spiderman helped him with his homework or something adorable like that.
It was pretty awesome and I hope the new series matches the awesomeness.

A different Spiderman is welcome.
Not that I don't like Peter Parker or anything. He's a cool dude. I'm just so Goddamn tired of everything about the character revolving around Uncle Ben dying/Gwen Stacy dying/Mary Jane not putting out.
When I heard that someone was replacing Tobey in the new Spiderman movie I was like 'whaaaaaat.' Tobs did a totes awesome job of playing the Peter Parker 'affable nerd with superpowers' convincingly. Couldn't imagine someone else playing Parker. Still, I probably would'a had no issue going if I hadn't learned they were starting over again. Spider-Man gets powers, Uncle Ben, yadda yadda.
No thanks. I've seen that movie, remember? It was released in 2002, less than 10 years ago. Called Spider-Man.

Different director for these ones. Sam Raimi said he was done with the series. Though, I will miss the Bruce Campbell cameos. He's what made the movies great.

I was hoping they'd keep the cameos. It's pretty lame if they haven't.

This new movie won't have any of the uncle Ben, Jane shit. It's Gwen Tracy, and dollars to dimes she eats some bridge death.

I always thought Tobey Maguire was lame and I'm glad they're replacing him. I really hate his voice for some reason. I feel like Spider-man should sound way zazzier.

That's true. He has the student thing down but he's not exactly the mouthy spiderman from the comics. Saw the new guy though, and I hope he's more than just a better-looking replacement. I want my cheesy puns!

What, Ben doesn't die in this one? At least that'd be a nice change. I mean looking at some of the - ....

Martin Sheen as Uncle Ben?
All is forgiven.

I like how Spectacular Spider-Man just skipped straight to him being Spider-Man, and explained the origin shit in brief flashbacks which were dotted into episodes. Man, season 2 ending was such a cliffhanger, can't wait for the OH WAIT THAT'S RIGHT THEY CANCELLED IT

I love Gwen Stacey in Spectacular Spider-Man. She's so sassy.

lame. taking an established franchise and injecting pc'ism into it is an admission that the issue won't sell on it's own. this kind of crap is why i don't read comics anymore.

LOL because the fucking character is BLACK it's suddenly FORCED and PC.
No. It is a black character. It's Ultimates Spiderman. Shit changes. It's a different character. the only reason people are making a big deal out of it is because they're fucking stupid and bigoted.
