Whose costume is better? - Part 1

[Visualiza]

Bringing this back from the dead. While I prefer the old suit in every regard, I do think that the TASM costume is serviceable, so I wouldn't mind seeing it for the remainder of the trilogy, or however many movies it ends up being.

Loved the Raimi costume though, especially the spider on the back.

This, this, to the core

I have a question about Spidey's costume, and this seems like the most relevant place to ask it. Did Steve Ditko or Jack Kirby design the costume?

Edit: What confuses me is that Lee went to Kirby first, saw his six-or-so-pages, and decided he didn't like Kirby's direction. Then he went to Ditko. But they still used Kirby's cover for AF#15. I don't know if Kirby drew the cover before or after Stan approached Ditko, or if the costume Spider-Man had in Kirby's pages is the classic Spidey suit. Does that make sense?

Ditko designed the suit we all know and love.

Kirby's Spider-Man design is god awful.

Spoiler

Understatement of the year...damn near hurts to look at.

 

[NCBIII]

...That is just miserable! Thanks for clearing that up for me, gents.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

I think they took some stuff from this as inspiration for other suits, like the 2211 one

Ditko designed the suit we all know and love.

Kirby's Spider-Man design is god awful.

Oh man...this looks so hype!

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Imagine the whatever Spider-Man motion comics (Kirby's work) by Grantray-Lawrence studio instead of them making a full cartoon

That gif is just perfect

ASM's suit photograps rather well. But from a design standpoint, it's pointlessly messy. An image of the arrogance of the costume designer thinking she could better the classic design. She couldn't, if silver shoes were a part of her brilliant ideas.

Raimi's costume remains the best Superhero costume ever put to screen.

I like the new suit more TBH. I don't mind the strip down the legs, and I find the mix of red and blue in the gloves to be really neat. I'm just not a huge fan of the sometime yellowish looking eyes. Raimi also had a really good suit, but I don't like the "3D" webbing.

 

[Nathan]

The only minus points I give the TASM suit, is that it didn't stick with the classic design. Other than that, I prefer it over the Raimi suit. Textures, materials, spider designs, webs, all of it.

 

[Chris Wallace]

Ditko designed the suit we all know and love.

Kirby's Spider-Man design is god awful.

Wow. That is just atrocious. This is what I often envisioned DC's Spider-Man would look like.

 

[DaltonSpidey94]

I say the Andrew Garfield suit, no contest! I loved the original suit, but the new one surpassed it in every way in my opinion, and I was disappointed to hear that they are changing it for the sequel.

I agree fully.

I can't wait to see the new design of the Spider-Man suit...

...Kay. When I first looked at this pic, it immediately flashed to me as a fake. The details like the hand, goggles and gun are simply not Kirby's. And with like 20 seconds worth of research, it was confirmed.

[Chris Wallace]

I'm glad.

 

[Chris Wallace]

I recently saw images from the "Amazing" video game and they actually managed to make the suit look worse; they added POUCHES!

 

[Nathan]

Good thing is they are optional. You can select a outfit in the game that doesn't have the belt.

We should've known it was a fake; look at the body. Those are adult proportions. I'm sure Kirby knew going in that the character was being introduced as a teenager.

Not that I'll ever experience this first hand 'cause I'll never play it.

They made it looks better on film
The spider on the back was a very welcomed change
Your ideal suit looks ugly

I agree.
