The introduction of Spider-Boy, Spider-Man's young sidekick, has caused some controversy among fans. For starters, Spider-Man's use of a child in his often deadly battle against crime seems like a terrible idea, and incredibly selfish on Peter Parker's part, even though Spider-Man #11 (by Dan Slott, Luciano Vecchio, Edgar Delgado, VC's Joe Caramagna) did some legwork to explain both their reasoning. Even though it seems Spider-Boy is here to stay, it is hard not to be concerned that Marvel is essentially saying it is okay to have a child soldier as long as certain conditions are met. However, his debut might help an upcoming character avoid the problematic legacy of predecessors.
