Finding it endlessly hilarious that while we got an absolutely stunning glow-up for Pavitr, we simultaneously got the simplification of E50101-Green Goblin
Tumblr media
Like. sure. the armour is cool. orange instead of purple. wonderful embossed details. weirdly angular iconic face. he SCREAMS classic Green Goblin and that's perfectly okay
But COME ON they downgraded him from a literal demon!!!!!! He was literally a 1:1 trans-adaption of E1610-Green Goblin!!!!!! They turned a big hulking BEAST who could throw fire and stuff into a Skinny Old Guy

While we’re on the subject of characters who “make you truly question makes one villainous”, what do you think of the take that villains, or at least ‘true’ villains, shouldn’t be sympathetic at all. That villains should simply be motivated by petty selfishness and cruelty. On one hand, that doesn’t sound like it makes for compelling stories, but on the other… most real-life villains really are motivated by nothing but greed and selfishness. And gain power by making people sympathize with them.
"Villain" is a word that has a lot of nuance to it that people in turn tend to overlook in favor of reducing it to "the guy it's ok to hate." "Antagonist" has the same problem, perhaps even worse, but that's another conversation.
Definitions don't help because more often than not they end up being intensely reductive of the broad scope of meanings the word has - again, another word with a similar problem in this regard is "monster," which can mean a bunch of a very different things that are all nonetheless recognizable by bearing some element of "monstrosity" to them.
So, like, one valid definition of villain is "an evil and unsympathetic character the audience is meant to hate." And I imagine if you gave that definition to most people, they'd agree - until you get to sympathetic characters who are still unmistakably villains. Like, would anyone say the word "villain" shouldn't include people like Doctor Octopus in Spider-Man II, or Mr. Freeze in Batman the Animated Series? Is Shakespeare's Macbeth excluded from the realm of villains because the play hinges on us finding ways to sympathize with him despite the horrific evil of his actions? Is Milton's Satan, perhaps the most iconic take on The Devil Himself, excluded from the conversation because Milton gave him pathos?
Villainy can be about the nature of your actions, and it can be about your relationship with society, and it can be about your choice of fashion and hobbies. It can be all of these things or none of them. Villainy is a form of being othered, one that has so many tropes attached to it and folded under it that the aesthetics of it can be divorced from the morality assigned to them easily. Villainy is so vast and complex a concept that a story can analyze it from a dozen different angels and still not capture the full scope of it.
Or, as one movie on the subject put it so succinctly:
youtube
It's about presentation.
As a writer and a reader of fiction, I love looking at time-tested tropes from a lot of different angles, and prying them apart to see how they work, and then seeing how far they can bend and twist until they break and become something else. I think locking yourself into one simple definition of what a villain can be is very limiting, creatively speaking, and think it's far more interesting to explore the concept from different angles. There's room for simple, pure evil bastards, sure, but there's also room for multifaceted evils, or characters will all the trappings of a villain but actions that ultimately speak to a nobility of spirit others have overlooked. The complexity of the trope is beautiful, why not explore it?

Every Spider-Man multiverse event is like “HMMMM... wouldn’t it be interesting if a character OTHER than Peter Parker had spider-powers?” Then they introduce a character who is female or a racial minority
(gay, if there’ve been a lot of these events and we’ve already done characters like Spider-Man With A Motorcycle or Spider-Man As A Cowboy)
but...
-Lives in New York City.
-Is a teenager/young adult.
-Endearingly awkward/’adorkable’ personality.
-Nerdy science whiz.
-Motivated by the preventable loss of a loved one.
-Makes comedic quips while going into battle.
-Artistic hobby/civilian job.
-Has supporting cast of Mary Jane Watson, Gwen Stacy, Flash Thompson, J. Jonah Jameson, the Daily Bugle staff, et al.
-Fights iconic rogue’s gallery of Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, et al.
Like... when does the part where this character ISN’T Peter Parker come in???

Spider-Man 2017: It COULD have been perfect
Now that I have calmed down today... I want to make it clear that I don’t hate the 2017 Spider-Man cartoon (which I will call 2017-Spidey for simplicity). In fact, I do like it. I just don’t love it. What I hate is how it being FA (for all ages) ruined it. If it had been allowed to be mature, take itself seriously and really be superhero show instead of a kid’s show, it could have raised the bar and no, I am not exaggerating. And to prove my point, I am going to list its best point of being rated FA ruined each of them. Note that I will not waste my time talking about the bad points. Period.
I will also give a heads up that there will be a spoilers ahead.
Tumblr media
1- It had fresh new ideas that worked. - This show tried to do a lot of things differently which I have to admit wound up working really well. To be very honest, I liked that 2017-Spidey’s Harry Osborne rose out of his father’s shadow and not only became the Hobgoblin, but also a hero who stood up to his dad (which is a moment all Harry fans were waiting for) and found peace with himself for a change. It was a nice surprise and the way Harry’s characters development progressed was actually pretty decent. In fact, Harry’s my favourite character in the show for that reason. I even liked that for once, Dr. Conners was a bad guy because this version of him worked in the story being told. His motives made sense and watching him be bad was entertaining. Truth be told, him selfishly testing on himself was always a not so virtuous motive anyway.
Tumblr media
-But it tried too many new things at once, so the good new ideas got drowned out. - Due to being FA, instead of concentrating on the three new good ideas it had (Harry-Hobgoblin and Villain Conners were two of them) and making them great, it was fixated on novelty. There was always a new character, a new villain of the day, a new version of an existing character and a new something which is a formula used in cartoons for preschoolers and younger. The show became disorganized and episodic format would constantly get broken. It started to feel like a borderline toy commercial like an outdated 80s Saturday morning cartoon. Most of the episodes could be classified as empty filler.
Tumblr media
2- It gave an origin story to Dr. Octopus and showed his progression towards villainy. - One of my favourite character arcs in Batman the Animated Series was Two-Face’s in which we saw him start off as Harvey Dent to becoming the iconic villain. When I heard that 2017-Spidey was going to do this with my favourite Spider-Man villain Dr. Octopus, I was elated. Seeing him be Peter Parker’s teacher in the beginning of the series, so that the two of them form a bond and then have become the villain of Spider-Man yet still have that kindness towards Peter Parker would have been one for the ages.
Tumblr media
- But he along with his story arc were reinvented, rushed and crashed. - I know I said this in another article, but I will say it again here. They aged him down to be 19 and in doing so, diminished his character into that of a rude, arrogant and unkind egoist. Unlike the reinvention of Harry Osborn into a heroic Hobgoblin, the reinvention of Otto Octavious as a young, mean-spirited sadist doesn’t work because part of what makes Dr. Octopus special as a villain IS his age and life experience. He needs to be an adult the same way Harry needs to be Norman’s son. Without his adulthood, maturity and lingering humanity, he’s just a generic villain not complex nor sympathetic. Young Otto would have worked better as a flashback version where he is that mean smart kid in the beginning, but then finds his compassion and patience as a teacher while the current day version of the doctor would be a kindly adult man with haunting trauma.
Tumblr media
3- It finally brought Miles Morales to television. - This is the third new good idea in my opinion. Miles Morales is one of Marvel’s best new heroes because he is humble, he is his own man, and he is a genuinely good person. Also, his mentor-student relationship with Peter Parker is heartwarming. They have a big brother and little brother dynamic. His story arcs are worth telling and have shaped him as a Marvel hero. At this point, he should appear regularly in the media.
Tumblr media
- But he was held back. - I also said this in another article that Miles needs to be younger than Peter in order for his character and their dynamic to make sense. If they’re the same age, Peter comes across as condescending and a know-it-all especially when Miles gets labeled as “Kid-Arachnid” and plays as second fiddle. Officially, Peter and Miles have eight years difference at least in the comics, so if Peter is a teen here, Miles should be a child. If it means not giving him his powers yet, so be it. It is ok to foreshadow instead. Miles is not “less than” Peter Parker nor is he just another Spider in some Spider-Themed-Fantastic-Four (there was really no need for Ghost-Spider or Spider-Girl). He’s the next Spider-Man. That merits respect and recognition in every media.
Tumblr media
4- It had interesting story arcs that could have been very badass. - While some story arcs just came out of nowhere like the Maximum Venom final arc, some arcs were actually really great. The Jackal saga was my favourite and made me a Jackal fan, so was the goblin saga and even the spider-island story had great bones and truly chilling premises. There were bio-engineered horrors, super robots, the mob, a pandemic and cultism.
Tumblr media
- But they were diluted in order to be “for all ages”. - These sophisticated story arcs were turned immature with an art style was too cute, too much comic relief, progressing too fast and not letting the characters act serious or realistic in the situations they were put in. These arcs became forgettable, dumbed down, unenjoyable and went just as soon as they came. Since I also brought up comedy, I have to be blunt as someone who has been reading Spider-Man comics for years, Spider-Man is NOT a comedy, and the titular hero is not a clown. The Spider-Man comics touch a lot of serious topics which it handles with care, it has action scenes that can get very brutal, and Spider-Man is constantly making tough decisions that always have consequences for better or worse. His quips actually reinforce how dark and stressful his life is. He is always joking, so he doesn’t have a breakdown and sometimes, he still has one anyway. In a way, Spider-Man is Marvel’s Batman except his element is light. Everything got kickstarted due to the death of Uncle Ben after all.
And this is why 2017-Spidey was only an ok cartoon. Being rated FA roadblocked it from being a perfect modern Spider-Man cartoon and I really hope that Marvel learns from this. FA does not work.
Thanks for reading and as always, stay safe.
-Mary
PS: I heard a rumor that Spider-Man: Freshman Year is being cancelled and to be very honest, after seeing how and why 2017-Spidey flopped, maybe it is for the best. I feel very bad for people who may lose jobs but shows that bomb will cause you to lose your job anyway and keep you from getting rehired in that same field. Perhaps Marvel should take a break. If it means that its next cartoon will not be for small children, but it will be great, I can wait.
