That's what Spiderman was from the start. He started in the 60s because Marvel saw a lot of teenagers wanting comic books, so they wanted a teenage superhero for them to identify with. A kid who is in over his head and won't stop talking, surrounded by more serious adults doing hero stuff was the idea 55 years ago.

So yeah, Marvel is getting in on that teenager cliche crap, but that's 'cause they invented the cliche with this character.

@CountScrofula Have they ever thought to actually evolve the character?I think its been long enough and spiderman its already a big enougn name

@CountScrofula I actually like the new spider man. He fits the age profile better. Toby spider man was a teenager going through grown man shit. The new spider man is much closer to reality than any of the others.

@Rokasu that's sad they wont change that at least a bit

@Aydao I think they've had like thousands of comics with him so they've evolved him a million ways. But nobody ever saw the teenage Spiderman in the movies so they went with that. I get it's not your thing though.

@CountScrofula Its not enjoyable unless you're a 12 year old kid.

Rokasu · 36-40, M

@Aydao He’s a nerdy teen. They tend to have some sort of social anxiety/disorder that works out in either the college or career years. It may be annoying but it’s pretty accurate for what he is. A fanboi who’s just getting his roots as a hero but still socially awkward.

@Rokasu For me the only spiderman I like its the cartoons one and when played by Tobey Maguire,i'm not saying he should be serious all the time but god damn,he acts like everything its a joke all the time,how am I supposed to take him serious?
