Spider-Man in India

Posted by michael on from the spidey-sense-is-tingling dept.

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?"

    Now we know this outsourcing thing has gone too far.

    I object to the punjabification of our super heroes.

    I, for one, welcome our new punjabified overlords.

    Spiderman is only the beginning of the trend. Next to go will be this!
