At first blush, Miguel punching cannibal Vulture is not like. the most revolutionary moral stance. It may even feel self evident, obvious. BUT! examining the ways in which Vulture explicitly aligns himself with the hyper-capitalism of Nueva York, and thus the ways in which his cannibalism can be read as a commodification of the body offers an interesting dimension to that fight imo. You hit back at not only a cruel product of this system, but a man engaging in the most literal representation of what that system does.

#everything that you are - your body and the labour you enact with that body - will become mere sustenance to fuel the ambitions of the few #individuals at the head of the totem pole #and oh boy I’m going off the rails here but like. cannibalism and corporations. something something the only way to be a part of that system #is to be subsumed into it but you lose all sense of self THROUGH that consumption #you’re a part of the whole. once again just sustenance #insane person thoughts yeah but shdhdjfjf I’m crazy for a spiderman comic okay 😭#tunes talks 2099
