This is a huge get for Marvel, Sony and fans of Spider-Man as now we get to see a fully realized Spider-Man in action, one that is able to interact with the Marvel Universe on a level we haven't seen before. The possibilities this opens up are endless and it will help to usher in a new age of Marvel Cinematic Heroes. Can you imagine Spider-Man and Black Panther on the same team? Or Spidey and Captain Marvel doing a buddy film thing? Not to mention Spider-Man will be able to have his own solo films and pick and choose which Marvel characters he wants to involve.....God I want this to come out right now. No idea who will be playing the webslinger but I'm totally gonna do a fancast so look forward to that, or don't it's a free country. I am saddened that Captain Marvel and Black Panther will be pushed back to 2018 but Spider-Man is my all time favorite and seeing him finally being done right ( this means no more teenage soap opera whining bs) is something I, along with others, deserve to see as soon as possible.

If you want to see how Marvel could possibly work him into the MCU, I made a suggest not to long ago on how it could happen. Today is a good day for comic book fans, now we can focus our attention on the X-Men...we coming for you FOX!
