Heroic Hollywood has posted... if not a scoop exactly, certainly some pretty interesting information relating to which bad guy we might see Tom Holland's Peter Parker face off against in the Spider-Man reboot. Their sources report that Sony's Vice President of Creative Affairs, Karen Moy, recently purchased a copy of the Kraven's Last Hunt trade paperback on Amazon.
So maybe she just fancied a bit of light reading and heard this was a good story? Not likely! Apparently during her 20 plus year tenure at Sony, Miss Moy has purchased plenty of other comic books for research purposes for her former boss, Amy Pascal - so this is a good indication that Sony, and the recently hired writing team of John Francis Daly and Johnathan Goldstein, are at least considering Kraven as their villain.
J. M. DeMatteis' Kraven's Last Hunt is widely considered to be one of the greatest Spider-Man tales ever told, and would definitely serve as some very exiting source material to draw from. This is far from irrefutable evidence of course, but something worth thinking about. What do you guys make of it?
