My name is Chris, and I have enjoyed reading comic books, especially Marvel Comics, since I was 5 years old. One of my all-time favorites is Spider-Man. A while back, I started a campaign to bring the Spider-Man balloon back into the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. I still have the campaign going, and I hope that there are people on this website who can help me with my cause. The link to my campaign can be found here:

Bring Back the Spider-Man Balloon

Also, in order to ensure that this campaign is successful, I would also like you all to write letters to some of the higher-ups at Marvel informing them about my campaign, and how much you would like to see Spider-Man returned to his rightful place in the parade, along with some of his compatriots from the Marvel Universe.

Contact info is provided below (my thanks to Deadly_Dusk for this):

Marvel Entertainment

On another note, I want to say that I am pretty much a sucker for anything Marvel. I've always enjoyed collecting comics and following up on many of the "big name characters," but I also try to follow up on many of the "minor league" types as well (i.e. characters who don't get as much publicity as Marvel's major sellers). I also enjoy meeting people involved in the business, and making friends with those who have the same interests as me. I also have a pretty hefty HeroClix collection too. In addition, I am also an aficionado for anything from the 1980s, and I am anxious to see what will happen with the upcoming "Transformers" movie.

FUN FACT: I've met and talked with film director Sam Raimi not once, but twice! The first time was completely by accident, when I was watching them filming "Spider-Man 2" at Columbia University in 2003. The second time was when they filmed "Spider-Man 3" in the city! Not many people can say that they've done that. ;)

UPDATE: My campaign got a spot on the Spider-Man Crawl Space November podcast! Check it out here!

Hey, Chris. I can think of no cause I'd rather support, man! Well, maybe a campaign to get rid of cancer or something. I'm #1493 with a bullet!

Almost forgot to say thanks a lot for the add. I fail at internet manners.

I hadn't noticed the absence of the balloon, I'll have to sign that petition. Also I wouldn't be able to see the thing in person anyway but pictures would be nice >_>

Why is Spiderman so important to New York?

1 Reply [ Latest posted on February 18th, 2007 9:43 AM ]

Remove[ Posted by spiderlegion on Feb 18th, 2007 9:43 AM ]...

Well, TCS, the way I see it, Spider-Man is important to New York because, he pretty much represents New York. He's a New Yorker in every sense of the word, even though he's a character of fiction. However, there are so many aspects of him that feel so real, that it enables people, both in New York and around the world, to connect with him. And in this day and age, we all need a hero that we can look up to. Spider-Man is, to my mind, the most human of all super-heroes.

There's more to my campaign than simply bringing back a balloon.
