Comics Red & blacks

[Orko Is King]

Does anyone else really dig Spidey's old red and black suit from the early days? It always seemed more spidery to me.

 

[USMC]

I've always loved it, but I've never known anyone that felt the same way. Most people hated it. It was actually a coloring mistake at first during Larsen's run, and he kept it going a bit to see how fans would react. It was just a failed experiment, that's all, not really meant to be a "new" costume.

but I thought it was fly.

I liked it.

I prefer the red and blue obviously but, it was a nice little change though.

 

[Upset Spideyfan]

Now that I think about it, the Red and Black is a pretty nice sight.

 

[3dman27]

not too bad it'll work

 

[SpideyZERO]

Red and dark blue is better. But having variations is a good thing

 

[Spec Spider-Man]

It was alright.

 

[diespinne]

I totally prefer the red and black... with maybe a bit of blue highlighting.

 

[Feature]

It's used well in this cover.

 

[Red]

It depends. Sometimes it looks great and then others not so much.

 

[Infinity9999x]

I've always liked it more then the Red and blue. I heard that originally the symbiote suit was going to have red eyes and a red spider, and I think that would have rocked.

 

[Kevin]

I loved the Red and Black. Even more so than Red and blue.

 

[Kirk Langstrom]

I loved it.

The Famous Covers Spider-Man figure from about ten years ago has him in his red and black outfit, and it looks great!

 

[Kevin]

The early to mid 90's were so kool. *sigh*

 

[Visionary]

I've always liked the Black/Red better than the Blue/Red costume.

 

[CConn]

It's my personal favorite Spidey costume.

I loved the Red and Black. Even more so than Red and blue.

I conquer!

 

[CConn]

I conquer!

You conqueror.

 

[Spider-Jay]

The red and black looks awsome. I too prefer it over the red and blue. I think the black makes Spidey look more serious. IMO.

 

[Kevin]

I conquer!

The hell--?

 

[Kevin]

But seriously, They should bring the red and blacks back at some point down the line.

This love this image of the costume.

 

[Kevin]

Red and black is so sexy. So is cat.

 

[Miss Webb]

I agree it DOES look more spidery...in fact, the coloring reminds me of tarantula spiders who often have either yellow or red markings over black (sometimes orange).
