TheManWithoutFear here with the first installment in a new feature called 'Let's take a moment'. In this feature, I'll be looking over specific moments from the history of Marvel Comics and pitching where and why I think they should appear in the ever-expanding MCU.
For the first entry in this series I'll actually be retreading familiar ground for anybody that read my editorial from last month 'How I Would Introduce Spider-Man into the MCU'. That's right, the first moment that I would LOVE to see translated to the silver screen comes from 2007's 'Amazing Spider-Man' #537 written by J. M. Straczynski with art by Ron Garney.
As I said in my editorial, I think this would be a fantastic moment for Spidey's first appearence in the MCU, ideally after the credits of Age of Ultron. This is a powerful scene and it would immediately get people talking about Civil War which can only help the hype towards next summer's Captain America: Civil War. A word-for-word adaptation would be my personal preference here, but any scene inspired by these pages would be awesome, as we saw in Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes in the episode 'Along Came a Spider'.
I think it would be cool if this scene was not only the after credits stinger in AOU but also an actual scene from CA: CW, similarly to how the post-credits scene in Iron Man 2 was a scene from Thor. Obviously we don't know yet if Spider-Man will even appear in Civil War but this feature is really about what I wish to see and not about predicting what will happen.
That's it for this installment, since this one was really a cheat-repeat I'll be back soon with number 2. In the meantime, I'd love to hear your feedback and any suggestions for a future entry in this series (although I have more than a few in mind first!).
