I see what the writer is saying for sure but I’ll be honest and say Spider-Man wasn’t the best choice of superhero to try to make this point
They call him your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man for a reason
He's always depicted as hand-to-mouth poor.
Of all the superheroes, he's probably the most proletariat-affiliated.
On the other side, there are examples like the Pym family, who destroy their stretch limos whenever they're dirty to buy new ones.
He’s always depicted as hand-to-mouth poor.
And when he started a business and started doing well financially they introduced a second Spider-Man who was broke again.
Yeah, Ironman, Captain Marvel and Black Panther are better options.
Batman
wasn't there a movie a couple years ago where the bad guy was a union member?
Yeah the first Tom Holland Spider-Man has a protagonist that was a union guy who spent his savings trying to keep his business alive but buying the alien tech cleanup contract. The government under Tony starks direction takeover the cleanup and fail to repay the union guy who then turns to theft violence and eventually murder.
