Spidey


As you can tell from my profile pic, I'm a big Spidey fan. He is basically my childhood Superhero (does anyone else remember the cheesy 60's 70's cartoon?) The picture is of the third installment in the movie series and OMG is it going to be awesome!!! We have Venom, Sandman (the effects look great) and as was revealed in the end of the last movie...the new Green Goblin. Apparently they are changing the way the "Black Suit" is handled. For those Comic Geeks out there, Spidey was whisked away to a far far planet by someone named the Beyonder....as well as a lot of Marvel Heroes and Villans. His suit got ripped up in a battle, and he was given a new suit from this alien machine. It was black, and could mimic any set of clothes he wanted.....it was also an Alien lifeform that was bonding itself with him. It was removed, but found a new host....a man named Eddie Brock who hated Spidey as much as the suit did. They merged and became Venom. That's how it came to be a long time ago....Marvel, recently, has been doing something called the "Ultimates" series. Re-mixing their old Heroes origins to make them a bit fresher and more palatable for today's readers. So apparently the "black suit" was a result of science gone bad. Peter Parker's Dad and Eddie Brock were working on a cure for cancer or something and the black suit was the result. Doesn't matter to me...the movie is going to be awesome, and May 4, 2007 can't come soon enough for me.
