Adult education

I'm watching the Spider-Man movie for the first time ever. Being from a family of girls I have never read Spider-Man comics or been involved with any other of the 'superheros'. But being a 4 year old boy, Ben is starting to get into that stage. At the moment it is mainly from what other kids tell him/play together at kindy. However I've decided that I need to familiarise myself with the Superhero stuff, so I can engage in meaningful discussions with Ben and help guide him through all the issues that this superhero stuff can explore.
