Why are you still unsure? C'mon, man. We've gotta try to do something original with this project and not make it like every other series ever made about Spider-Man. Plus, so far as my knowledge extends to, there hasn't been a single story written about Miles that deals with the issue of racial discrimination.

This is a prime opportunity for some creative and innovative storytelling that centers around a rather... sensitive topic. But in a series that deals in real-life historical events, would it really be all that different to actually discuss racism?

Spider-Man's supposed to be the Everyman of Marvel Comics, but when that Everyman is African-American, especially in the year 2017, racism is a prime issue to look at and talk about... even in comics.

Bottom line, this is a storytelling goldmine, as I said above.

I think that Kingpin should have an, at most, moderate role in Season 1. The role itself, tho, I'm not sure about.
