Vijf comics met een boodschap

De website Mania.com heeft een top vijf gemaakt met comics die een boodschap uitdragen en vaak gratis worden verspreid onder jongeren. Zo heeft Superman een boodschap over landmijnen verspreid, en de Young Titans over drugs. Maar onze vriendelijke buurtslingerende Spider-Man maakte ze meer zorgen over onveilige seks, waarbij je de grootste zorg niet AIDS (pre tijdperk) maar een kindje was. Bovendien, waar bemoeid hij zich mee?? want laten we eerlijk zijn Spidey heeft zelf grote relatie en bindings problemen.

Everything You Wanted to Know About Spider-Man But Were Afraid to Ask

Spider-Man has had his share of loves over the years, from the demure Betty Brant to perennial party girl Mary Jane Watson and he's even had a few late night rendevous with the kinky Black Cat, but the common denominator is that none of these ladies ended up on the Marvel U's version of Teen Moms. And do you know why?

Back in the '70s, Marvel Comics teamed up with Planned Parenthood to release a comic in which your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man warned kids about the dangers of unprotected sex and battle The Prodigy, a villain from the planet Intellectia, who was using his mind control powers to convince kids that you couldn't get pregnant the first time you had sex, or if you did it standing up. His plan was to snatch up the babies that these teen pregnancies would undoubtedly yield to use as slave labor on his homeworld. Luckily, Spider-Man caught wind of his plan and put a stop to it as he dispensed sex education wisdom to readers. Unfortunately, Marvel did not see the liscensing possibilities in this venture and Spider-Man condoms remain unavailable to true believers looking to practice great responsibility.
