What about Batman? He was rebooted many times but he was always Bruce Wayne? Same as Superman and Spider-man? James Bond was also rebooted many times but he was always the same James Bond. What are you talking about? Making stuff up ... You making me look bad cause minorities and all that shit when I never said I had the problem with Miles being black. I would also have a problem if they replaced Peter with another white guy because the color of the skin is not relevant, it's that Spider-man will always be Peter Parker and that's it. Go make Miles an original superhero and I would love him the same as Peter ...
I fully realize how worthless a conversation this is, but it's funny to see you reach for any reason to remain hateful.
People that acted as Batman at one time or another who were not Bruce Wayne:
Dick Grayson, Terry McGinnis, Damian Wayne (Bruce's son), Azrael (thanks Zoolander, you really are more than really really good looking)
People that acted as Superman at one time or another who were not Clark kent:
Zod (fun one), Harvey Dent (really though), Kal Kent, Lex Luther (another fun one), Jon Kent, Conner Kent, Val-zod, Kenan Kong, Kal-el, Calvin Ellis
People who acted as Iron Man, who were not Tony Stark:
Weasel Willis, Mary Jane Watson, Ultron, Iron Lad, Pepper Potts, Norman Osborn, James Rhodes,
People who acted as Captain America who were not Steve Rogers:
Bucky Barnes, Danielle Cage, Sam Wilson, Misty Knight, John Walker, Peggy Carter,
I feel like that's good enough. You think you got me with 007, but that's based off of novels and not comics/sci-fi. And either way, clearly you're ignorant to how fictional media functions, specifically relating to comic super-heroes.
You forgot the biggest change - Azrael as Batman during Knightfall. That went for quite a while.
Ah, youre right! Thanks much, you actually are more than just really, really good-looking.
I am also an expert complimentator. Nice face fur!!
$50 says he doesn't respond to this comment where he gets absolutely fuckin owned. Was gonna also mention The Flash, Green Lantern, Aqua Man, Dr. Fate, etc etc etc. It's reiterated so many times in comics that many of these hero names are mantles to be worn for a time and passed on.
Isn't there a famous comic series where Kal-el dies and other step into the Superman name?
There are many. Batman has too. But you get what I'm saying
... No, actually, I don't.
Yeah and I don't give a shit. Go collect your internet points somewhere else. Only defence you guys got when someone shit talks Miles is "u racist"
What the fuck?
He came into a thread filled with comic book nerds, and now he's mad he got his little butt spanked.
No. He was dead numerous times and other people took up the mantle. Most notable Dick Grayson.
I don't know how it is in the games, but in the comics he was originally someone who lived in the same world as the old Spider-Man and took up the mantle. Peter Parker wasn't replaced as a character, he was just dead.
