Where do you think Spider-Man goes next? (Comic book/my theories)
If anyone from Marvel is reading this… please hire me, I have SO many theories/ideas and would love to see them come to life (I’m a screenwriter!)
Anyway, with Tom Holland’s Spider-Man moving forward, I’ve been thinking about which comic storylines/characters they could pull from next. Curious what everyone else wants to see.
My picks:
• Lily Hollister → Menace/Queen Cat — feels like a natural, underused thread they could build out
• Felicia Hardy/Black Cat — surprised she hasn’t shown up yet, feels overdue
• Hobgoblin — whether it’s Ned or Phil Urich. Since Eman Esfandi denied playing Paul, it’d be a fun twist if he’s actually being set up as Phil/Hobgoblin instead
• Harry Osborn — feels like a no-brainer, and it’s also another route to bring in Lily
And with all of these characters getting introduced, it also opens the door for a torch-pass to Miles Morales — like Peter mentoring him, maybe even Miles helping him out in a big battle somewhere along the way. That kind of build-up would make Peter passing the torch feel more earned instead of sudden.
What do you all think? Anyone else have theories on where they take it from here?
