Who is Aiden's favorite superhero and why do they admire them?

"My favorite superhero is of course Spider-Man, aside from having the coolest villains, Spider-Man represents something within all of us. Peter struggles everyday to balance his normal life with his curse, his power, his responsibility. His alter ego Spider-Man represents Peter's love of people and his city, he will always but others lives before his own" But Spider-Man is the greatest hero not for these reasons, to me... it's because he's so human." -Aiden


Where did Aiden's love of superheroes come from?

"My love of superheroes started from a young age, but I truly started leaning on Marvel during the pandemic. Shortly after the pandemic I was diagnosed with my spine condition and also delt with a lot of mental health struggles. Reading comics and watching the MCU helps me escape reality. It also gives me inspiration. I am now pursuing a future in writing and it's all thanks to Stan Lee." -Aiden


What superpower would Aiden want and why?

"I would want the ability to fly. To be able to travel across the world without having to walk. The beautiful things I could see, the amazing things I could do for others. It would be incredible." -Aiden
