Because teenagers usually struggle with their sense of identity and try to figure out who they want to be and i enjoy stories like that and thats where i like peter parker the most

Reading Spiderman as a teen he seems more relatable and you can feel what he goes through.

1st: it makes Peter more unique, all the other A-list heroes are adults. 2nd: having a teenage hero facing adult villains is more dramatic, the hero has 1 more disadvantage to overcome. 3rd: the relationship drama is more fun to follow

I used to love teenage Peter Parker, but I find that most media aside from Spectacular and the Ultimate comics actually don't do it well. He's either in highschool too little, or he is instead treated like a little kid. Adult Peter just highlights the responsibility and stuggles of the everyman.

616 Teenager stories were his beginning, it was always a starting point that was unique for the time but the whole point of spiderman is his evolution and adulthood is where it's at, only time I liked a newer teenage Spidey was Ultimate, but that was a reimagining of the character so it makes sense

I mostly read him as a college student, 70s Spider Man is my Spider Man.

While there are definitely teenage Peters that I love (such as Ultimate and Spectacular), the peak age for Spider-Man is like the young adult years (as in TAS and the Raimi/Webb movies). IMO, what makes it the perfect age is the crossroads-y nature of it, as he could truly go one way or another.

Started reading superhero comics with JMS' Spider-Man, so adult Spider-Man is "my Spider-Man." Doesn't mean I dislike teenage Spider-Man and IMO it made sense for the MCU version to start with that.

In my opinion adulthood comes with more responsibility, and that's why it fits Peter, a hero all about responsibility better, also parenthood bring an extra level of responsibility too, that's why Peter should be an adult father

This is at least entertainingly bad. Insurrection, meanwhile, is just frustratingly bad, goes against one of the core themes of Star Trek (technology makes our lives better) and expects me to root for a handful of smug hippies hogging a universal cure from billions of people.

unlike insurrection it's fun to watch even though it's because it's bad, with that being said there are a few cool ideas and memorable quotes while insurrection is just plain boring with a stupid story thematic
