Spiderman's New Duds?

[dfacto]

Am I the only one who thinks this is a terrible concept? Not to mention that the anatomy on the piece is quite shitty for a professional work. (what's up with his right leg?)

Backstory is supposedly something about Spiderman getting new powers, and a new suit from Iron Man. I suppose that explains the color scheme and the claw-arms to some degree. Still doesn't excuse it though.
:shrug:

[bRyaN]

all i'm gonna say is he got one of them claws coming out of his scranus...

[Carnifex]

THIS JUST IN: - Spiderman changes name to "ButtClaw - Anal Scourge of Vileness" :$

[Elwell]

Oh good lord.
Lets just hope that he does a better job of throwing this one out than the last one when he's done with it.

[corky13]

ewwww....looks like a Angel-Medina Nightmare :D ... but seriously....even if its time for a change , I would say this change istn a good one

[Elwell]

Worst idea since Loonatics.
And we all know how well that went over.

I shed a tear when I saw that.. but this... this is too much.

[Poohgee]

Oregano :
"ButtClaw - Anal Scourge of Vileness"

-> Maye they are very desperate & short on ideas ... .

Maybe ButtClaw is a relative of Spiderdude ... U know some homoerotic things .. some bed scences ... .... :)

& it could end up ... very strange .. Cool .

:)

[CruShTinbOX]

That is absolutely wretched.

[silentkitty]

...What the hell? Oh god no. They really need to stop fixing stuff that isn't broken.

[walnut]

That's a joke right?

aww man, i don't think you were EXTREME enough for it. :xpld:

[MarkHarchar]

I don't necessarily mind the colors, but he looks like he has ballerina shoes on.

[dfacto]

Wait a minute... 1, 2, ... 5, 6, 7 limbs!?


I see what they're going for -> /m\

[Digisaur]

Oh man, that's the best they could come up with?
It's the whole stupid Clone Saga all over again.
:dead: Ughk!

LOL dfacto! Marvel's Next Universe Shattering Event! INSECT BATTLE

[dogfood]

I think this new Iron Man looks kind of cool. It gives him a bit more agile, Spiderman feel to him. I'm kind of missing the metal nipples, though...

And claws coming out of the rectum? Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition.

[DavePalumbo]

I don't see what there is to get upset over, the comic has been pretty much awful for at least 10 years if you ask me. I don't know, maybe somewhere in the past few years they picked up the pieces or something, but I doubt it.

[Elwell]

the comic has been pretty much awful for at least 30 years if you ask me.
Fixed :)

Oh god, dave, you have no idea. Babylon Five Guy has decided that Gwen was a who got secretly knocked up by Norman Osborn, and Spidey is really just the lastest manifestation of some Spider God or something. :nohope:

Reading stuff like that makes me feel a lot better about the retcon work I do on my resume.

[Midnight]

I don't understand - I haven't kept up with Spiderman stuff for a long while, but I thought spiders have 8 limbs...

The ankle and the arse-claw (book title, anyone?)... ugh.

[silentkitty]

It looks like there's supposed to be two limbs on the bottom there, maybe..? Or maybe it's just one that's drawn strangely, I'm not sure.

[romance]

Did Rob Liefeld create this? He's been known to butcher everything he touches.

[Alday.J]

Crap ! I wanna post something about Liefield's stuff, but Romance was faster ! ;) Glad to read the same reaction in France & America ! I can't understand that kind of logic: how many times Spidey change is suit/costume ?

[DragonZ911]

Wait a minute... 1, 2, ... 5, 6, 7 limbs!?

ha, I was thinking that too..

I was just counting them..cause you know..spider..8..

[DavePalumbo]

back to... '76? I wouldn't say awful. I was all into the Romita Sr. era, and there were definately some ups and downs between the death of Gwen Stacy and the birth of Venom (which is where I signed off), but I say they were solid well into the early 80s, and reached unspeakable lows in the 90s.

Same with the X-men. Started a little shakey, hit their stride in the 70s, then tapered off around '84.

[fixx]

hahahaha - "arse-claw"
yet another reason on my continuously growing list of Why I Switched to DC.
ahh, Batman. <3

[magicgoo]

Besides the Butt Claw, his head seems to be growing bigger everytime I see him.

[JoshuaTheJames]

whoa.

It'll Return. They always do. But, the Black Costume was pretty cool.

Hey look, it's the rest of the Mighty Morphin' Spidey Rangers!

I thought that was a Queen album cover?

[DavePalumbo]

Tristan, you have alot of time on your hands today don't you?

I thought that was a Queen album cover

so far as I'm aware, it's Andy Warhol

[madplanet]

More Marvel crap. Is it just me or does this "new" suit kind of look like the one Spider-Woman wore in the 80's? These silly costume changes are there to keep everyone's minds off of the bad writing that I'm assuming is going on. Sales must be down.

[jrr]

well i'm surprised none of you have caught on yet, this is obviously a more violent spiderman, rather than his old antics of being a wiseass while he ties you up to street poles, this new spiderman will claw you to death while chattering. the meeting with the writers probably went something like this.
person a: spiderman is good but he needs to be badder.
person b: yeah! an edge, kids love an edge to their superheroes now, like wolverine!
person c: yeah! extreme!
person d: very extreme! yeah!
person a: let's give him claws!
tristian: and let's bring back the spider mobile!

[Elwell]

tristian: and let's bring back the spider mobile!
Now you know why I don't work for Marvel...

his ankle's broken.

Alright, not a lot of similarity, but still...

[fixx]

[JeffZNY]

First comic I ever picked up was in the early 90s, a McFarlane Spidey with something to do with Kraven's bride and a subjugated Lizard. It friggin' blew me away. I had no clue that a comic could be so deliciously dark and morbid...it opened my eyes to the possibilities of the genre even at a young age. That said, I then went and read all the original issues, as the new ones didn't hold my attention for long. I was more of an X-Men guy myself. Omega Red rules! Long live the Communist threat!

i used to read this alot when i was younger. allways thought that the black suit was coolest.

what is those arms btw,didnt his enemy dr octopus have those?

and yea the arm coming out from his scrotum isnt a very great concept image.

[Blue]

HAHA, best practical joke ever. Wow did i laugh when i saw the pic, so funny!















(if its not a joke... may god have mercy on us all)

[talbot]

Here's a collection of the different costumes Spidey wore at one time or another:

http://www.alaph.com/spiderman/accessories/suits.html

[Undefeated]

Its probably just a 3 or 4 month thing. Just to get people talking about Spider-Man and buy the book to see what the fuck is going on.

Probably

Spiderman's classic costume won BEST SUPERHERO COSTUME in a WIZARD magazine once. Yee

[JeffZNY]

the best:

EDIT: just noticed Undefeated's comment. Ironic, since I'm a Jets fan:-P

[Undefeated]

Thats also suitable as a Jets fan's costume.

[DragonZ911]

I liked when spidey got his suit infected with the blackcrap from outerspace, and it morphed to make new clothes andwhatnot.

That thing was cool...then it went evil..and made venom, and then later carnage.

[DavePalumbo]

That thing was cool...then it went evil..and made venom

and so we entered the 90s

[Number_6]

There was a spidermobile?

Yup. It could turn into a regular street car too. Johnny Storm built it for Spiderman, but the engine was an ultra fuel-efficient one donated by some company.

[waronmars]

Nooooo wayyy it will last

man spider armor is the shit.

next they should merge mjolnir with thor's penis.

[Elwell]

Too bad DC isn't still doing Electric Blue Superman. They could have the worst intercompany crossover ever.

[fixx]

egads... Electric Blue Supes, Ass-Claw Spidey, and Azrael Bats.

Peter Parker was a teenager in what, 1962?

I've never seen a guy in his 50's or 60's that thinks about his wardrobe as much as Peter Parker...........I wanna see Peter Parker turn into a grizzly old guy that don't take shit from nobody.

That would make it too much like Miller's Dark Knight, which was actually pretty good, which Spidey has not been since Mc Farlane took over.

Honestly - I hate this new outfit. >:{

[mirrorkills]

lets hope its only for a story arc, that i can forgive...

[bdfoster]

Wait....


It gets better.....


Spidey can fly?

http://www.uploadhouse.com/out.php/i57024_amazing5299.jpg

[Mort]

hehe they are just trowing in everything at him.
he will later own a hammer and shoot laser beams with the eyes.

a very american move from them. perhaps looking for a new audience for some fast bucks.and totaly ignore the charm of the original and later the company will crash.

[CCThrom]

Yeech... so Spiderman is becoming flying-shiny-buttclaw-bendy-rubber-bones man... This has got to be a story-arc thing... please tell me that's all it is.

Of course if they really wanted to make him more anatomically spider-like, the webbing would shoot out of his ass too. Now there's something for all those muggers he webbed to telephone poles to think about.

[Blue]

Maybe they'll do us all a favor and after a few issues they will close the series with spiderman waking up and everything just being a dream.

[Carnifex]

btw,what's so bad about venom?

[timpaatkins]

Hey I remember a few years ago, Spidey gained the powers of captain universe ( i think) to defeat some foe and save the world. Then he got all sorts of crazy powers, a costume change, but then they dissapear in the next issue. Maybe its somethink similar?

[Luciferous]

Excuse me while I burn my remaining Spidey comics.

It's so... God-awful.

the crazy power chose him to be the next world saviour,and he stopped a giant robot from destroying the world. for this reason,he had a captain universe costume change and matching powers. after having defeated the robot,it disappeared.

[merlin1507]

The best "alternative" Spidey suit is the black Venom version.

Check out Kravens last hunt. Spidey looked his coolest ever..
