Spider-Man in a Hoodie

[DarkSpider]

I'm not saying bring back Ben or he should wear his entire costume far from it, but Peter should defiantly ripoff his hoodie style once in awhile. It's cold in New York and it really looks based still...

Love everything about classic Scarlet Spider, including his look (although I also dig the new Kaine version as a darker twist on the theme), so I'm sold on this idea.

It really does have a "do not @%#& with me" theme written all over it where the opposition instinctively knows it's about to get trashed.

The Spider-Hoodie. By Ben the Trope Maker and Gwen the Trope Codifier.

despite how divisive it was at the time i'm partial to the look. out of all the awful 90s designs, it weirdly holds up. and in some ways (like londo says) was a tad before its time.

Agreed. Perhaps it's bias based on my age, but I love the spider-hoodie look and the original Scarlet costume in general. I don't need Peter to use it though; we have Gwen to carry the torch, and she's doing it well.

Plus, Peter kinda strikes me as too dorky to go with a cool hoodie. I like when he's portrayed as socially awkward. The guy should be wearing a collared shirt or something.

-Pav, who would love to hear what fashion-conscious artists like Jamie McKelvie think about Peter's wardrobe...

does that mean ben is cooler than pete?

nerd/geek culture is so mainstreamed now, i wonder what today’s peter would be like. collared shirts are cool at the mo.

He'd rock a bolo tie ofc

That's the thing, though: I don't see Peter even knowing about current fashion trends. So even though he's always been a nerd/geek, I don't think he'd suddenly be wearing thick black glasses or t-shirts with dorky references on them. He'd still be unfashionable.

-Pav, who thinks this topic merits long discussion...

EDIT: Ben is most definitely cooler than Peter because Ben is more brazen yet simultaneously more open to treating his identity as something malleable.
