When we spoke to "Community's" Donald Glover at San Diego Comic-Con, we asked him to compare himself to the Spidermans we saw at the event.

And while he's showing some modesty now, the campaign to cast him as the first African-American web crusader definitely heated up when fans began supporting his bid.

"I thought it'd be cool and a lot of people agreed with me. It was crazy," he tells Zap2it. "It was a tongue-in-cheek thing that blew up and I was super-excited about."

The multi-talented former "30 Rock" writer is also well known for his rapping skills, so we had to ask him to throw a little freestyle rap at us. Sure it was early, but he definitely proved he's got skills.
