Spiderman
of India -
June 26, 2004
There is a new version of Spiderman
who roams the streets of Mumbai: Readers
of this series will not see the familiar
Peter Parker of Queens under the classic
Spider-Man mask, but rather a new
hero – a young, Indian boy named
Pavitr Prabhakar. As Spider-Man, Pavitr
leaps around rickshaws and scooters
in Indian streets, while swinging
from monuments such as the Gateway
of India and the Taj Mahal.
Mumbai’s (Bombay’s) first
web-swinging superhero will be joined
by a reinterpretation of the classic
Spider-Man villain, the Green Goblin
-- reinvented as a Rakshasa, an Indian
mythological demon.
Some cool artwork is here.
What would a Thai Spiderman be like?
