    Spidey really should have picked up on Reilly's ideas for the spider-stingers and impact webbing. That stuff was cool.

    What's not cool is this costume. And if Quesada drew that sketch as the article might lead one to believe, let me ask, when did he go from having a large amount of artistic talent and skill, to having all the skill of a stroke victim who can only use fignerpaints with his tongue?

    Sounds like Tony's drunk again.

    "Tony you're not in your suit. I can kick your ass."
    "YOU LOOKIN AT MY PINT?"
    "Tony, that's the lamp."
    "FUCK YOU, PARKER!"

    Tony then collapses and vomits all over the place.

    Even for a sketch, it looks pretty awful and rushed, and it certainly isn't the kind of thing you put on your website to promote one of your most lucrative characters.

    Fuck Tony Stark.

    Why couldn't Ultimate Stark have designed it? Then it would rule.

    If those yellow leggings don't get hiked up a little, and the color turn to normal Spidey colors by a few issues, well... I'll be angry. I don't read Spider-Man at the moment, so I can't say I'd stop reading it, but I can still be outraged.

    Then I'd hide behind Spider-woman because the best place to hide before Iron Man stomps a mudhole in your face is staring at Spider-womans ass.

    No, he's drunk, remember? So he'll end up knocking himself out somehow, and he'll wake up to find himself webbed to a goat with marker all over his face.

    I don't claim to be any sort of expert when it comes to comics, but...

    When is Marvel going to start writing meaningful stories for their characters again, and not have every story arc be a desperate attempt at drawing readers back to their books?

    I mean, come on... Having House of M be a long, drawn out charade just to have an excuse for Logan (I'm not calling him godamned "James Howlett". Fuck that.) get all his memories back, so the character can lose any kind of mystique and intrigue it's held for the past several decades? Spider-Man dying, coming back and getting yet another new suit? These long, drawn-out gimmicks just seem so damned tired and desperate.

    (The Ultimate Universe notwithstanding; Ultimate Spider-Man, at least, has been a brilliant and enjoyable jumpstart of a dying franchise.)

    Also: [spoiler:1aee8947d7]It really doesn't matter what this new suit looks like, because we all know that Spider-Man is just going to turn around and go back to his original costume soon enough.[/spoiler:1aee8947d7]

    1) Wolverine getting his memories back was just an interesting sidenote to House of M. It certainly was not the entire point. The whole point was to take the world mutant population down from untold tens of thousands down to 198.

    2) You want a jumpstart to a dying franchise, and for them to tell bold, meaningful stories that haven't been told? Yeah, J. Michael Straczynski has been doing that for Spider-Man for a couple years now.

    Well at least for once I know exactly who to blame.

    Cant really tell who drew that particular sketch (probably for the sake of secrecy) but the shading with pure black is consistant with Quesada's style.

    Ive slept on it, and It doesnt look so bad now, my only problem is the gold. Black might not work against such dark red, white not be quite right either, but raking the design without the colours, it doesnt look too bad. Im a Quesada whore though. I think I need to see it drawn by one of the full time artist on a Spidey title, or by Quesada, to make up my mind.

    sigh. it's true, you know. besides letting claremont stay around twenty years past his prime(i think joe q must've lost his virginity to the dark phoenix, or something), he's actually not that bad of a guy. he does exactly what the company needs, when they need it.

    sigh.

    sometimes i dream that he's mended the bridge and has alan moore writing comics again. when I become EiC, that's the first thing I'm doing. I don't care if it's in twenty years and alan is pushing 80, I would do whatever it took to get him back. I'd hand him whatever franchise he wanted on a silver platter. he could have pete go crazy and rape aunt may, for all I care, as long as his name is on a marvel book.

    You're officially retarded.
    The man saved the Spider-Man books, brought tons of talent back to Marvel, got Grant Morrison writing X-Men, Launched Marvel Knights, Launched Marvel Max, brought us the Tsunami line (which in turn brought us Runaways and Sentinel) and he gave us the fucking Ultimate line.
    What more does the man have to do for you?

    I see the new suit lasting only so long as it takes soebody to beat the shit out of parker.
    Than he'll have to grab a replacement out of his closet and go back to kicking ass.
    That, and he'll probably get tired of telling everyone, "No I'm still spiderman, The costumes new. What? It's gay? You're gay!"

Now in this same artical , i remember readingthat ALan Moore even said that that sahowed how great Quesada was gonna be for marvel because of this act. And with some one like him in charge he might think about working with marvel again, but he left that comment kinda open ended.
