One of the first posts I wrote on this blog was about how we almost missed out on Spider-Man.
I also commented, “you can’t go anywhere without seeing a child in a Spider-man t-shirt or with a Spider-man backpack.”
Fast forward 3 years, and I see this playing out so evidently with my nephew. He’s obsessed with Stan Lee’s creation—running around the house pretending like he’s Spider-Man. It’s also his clothing, toys, and TV shows!
It’s wonderful to see the excitement I had for Spider-Man occur with my nephew. It also made me realise there are only a few characters that truly transcend generations and make such inexplicable connections with fans.
