According to culture and gaming blog Kotaku, critics began to notice that the superhero sculpture clinging upside-down to the mall's facade has an erection.Even more awkward? The statue was installed above a playground.
The artist wrote on Facebook that he was attempting to naturalize the superhero in a comical way but understood why the work could be interpreted as lewd in a place like a shopping mall, according to a translation provided to The Huffington Post. The installation had been up for about a year.
"Is his spider sense tingling, or is he is just really, really happy to see you?" Complex wrote.
