<p>The 92-year-old former president and chairman of Marvel Comics has revealed he isn&#8217;t generally bothered by the sexuality or race of a superhero, but doesn&#8217;t think it should be changed once the character has been established.</p>
<p>Speaking specifically about Spider-Man, he said: &#8220;I wouldn&#8217;t mind, if Peter Parker had originally been black, a Latino, an Indian or anything else, that he stay that way. But we originally made him white. I don&#8217;t see any reason to change that.&#8221;</p>
<p>Stan said an entirely new character ought to be developed if comic book fans are so keen to see a gay superhero.</p>
<p><a href="http://londonglossy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/image256.jpg"><img src="http://londonglossy.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/image256.jpg" alt="Marvel Universe" width="600" height="325" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-76003" /></a></p>
<p>He told Newsarama: &#8220;I think the world has a place for gay superheroes, certainly, but again, I don&#8217;t see any reason to change the sexual proclivities of a character once they&#8217;ve already been established.</p>
<p>&#8220;I have no problem with creating new, homosexual superheroes.</p>
<p>&#8220;It has nothing to do with being anti-gay, or anti-black, or anti-Latino, or anything like that.</p>
<p>&#8220;Latino characters should stay Latino. The Black Panther should certainly not be Swiss.</p>
<p>&#8220;I just see no reason to change that which has already been established when it&#8217;s so easy to add new characters. I say create new characters the way you want to. Hell, I&#8217;ll do it myself.&#8221;</p>
<p>Marvel and DC&#8217;s superhero rosters holds a series of gay and lesbian character already, including Northstar (one of the X-Men), the modern version of The Question, and Batwoman.</p>
