Spider-Man in India
Lord Omlette writes "I'm really surprised no one else has mentioned this, but Spider-Man is getting redone in India! As an Indian-American, I'm quite excited. (Let's get it out of the way: even our comic book heroes are being outsourced, wtf!) The manga version of Star Wars was pretty good, but off the top of my head I can't think of any other comic books that were redone for a completely different culture. Anyone?"

Where to buy it:
Purchase.
I wonder if there's Turkish Star Trek too.
PS: Caveat Emptor.
They don't need Captain India, they've already got Dhalsim. This super hero can also climb everything with his stretching arms.

The loose fitting dohti looks silly with the skin tight top. The contrast is ridiculous, but I guess it's a comic book, so you have to show the ripped muscles.
Don't forget that Friday is Hawaiian shirt day.

Spiderman would be a little subpar anyway outside of New York.
