Adapting Spider-Man: India's Rediff.com chats with Jeevan Kang, artist on the new Indian version of Spider-Man:

"I am living my dream now. This is the first time an Indian artist has worked on a major American comic character. It was fun reinventing Spiderman. ... I had to keep the integrity of the character of Spiderman intact. Also, his easily identifiable characteristics. Then, I had to weave Indian symbols into all this."
