Obviously last year you were famously wrapped up in the "Donald Glover for Spider-Man" campaign, and now we’ve got a black Spider-Man in one version of continuity that some say looks a little bit like you. Have you been speaking to Marvel about anything that we should know about?
(laughs) Look I think for a long time people know that I have an iron grip over there, I’m very strong at the Marvel Comics (laughs) people really respect me over there. No, [comic book writer Brian Bendis] got the idea from seeing a Community episode actually, cause I was in like Spider-Man pajamas, which I thought was pretty great. It’s funny, people say he looks like me, I don’t see it that much, but I know he was influenced by me. I can’t wait to have grandkids and be like, "Yup, that’s me." It’s really cool. The nerd respect I’ve gotten is quite large. Also the hate mail is pretty great, the hate tweets are pretty great, "You killed Peter Parker!"
But you’re not necessarily gonna show up to Andrew Garfield’s house?
And be like "Hey," just drop the new cover there. No, no. But it’s pretty great.
