Shortly after he first appears, he recaps his life story with the help of a montage.

Reader, I shrieked.

Could it be that ol Petey is a member of the tribe?

I had to know, so I consulted the films directors.

It turns out that the answer to the question Is Jake Johnsons Peter Parker Jewish?

But its kind of up to the viewer.

It could be that Buddhists step on glass.

It could be that M.J. is Jewish and Peter converted.

It could be that … he trails off and tosses the question to his co-directors.

I dont know, what else could it be?

It could be, maybe thats not a glass!

I was like, His name is Spider-Man, just for starters.

shouts co-director Bob Persichetti, referring to Rothman, who chimes in with, Yeah, that was me.

But like I said, its an alternate universe; it could mean so many things.

We just dont know.

With all due respect, Rodney, thats bullshit.

Own it, boychik!
