I mean, I get if it makes you guys uncomfortable, and all, but in the Marvel Universe, given all their current teenage super-heroes, like the Champions, for instance, I'm honestly surprised that there hasn't been a story involving a man walking into a highly populated area and shooting the shit outta innocents.

When we look back at instances like Columbine, Sandy Hook, and Marjory Stoneman Douglas, the instance of mass shootings in the world, and especially the United States, has become extremely commonplace. In fact, 2 days after what happened in Parkland, someone set up some kinda prank at a college in Washington where a mass shooting was alleged, but never actually took place.

Listen, I'm not saying that we have to go the route of the '70s live action Spider-Man and make it completely grounded in reality. That's not it at all. I just think that in this world we live in today, where stuff like this can and does happen, we should try and implement that into the stories that are told through the eyes of our super-heroes.

Also, Ben, you talk about how a guy who knows martial arts and having access to high-caliber weapons not being able to fight Spider-Man? Take a look back at all the times that Black Cat kicked Spidey's ass in a fight. I actually think that she's beaten Spidey more times than he's beaten her.
