I have been staring at these two for quite a while now thinking what can I comment about the costume. The only thing I can say is that I like it. Looking at Garfield and that McNiven (this is a McNiven drawing right?)drawing I think the essence of the character is spot on, whatever that means I'm not sure. What I am just saying is that I do not have a hard time identifying that man on the left as Spider-man. Yes there are alterations on the costume and I'm not even fond of the color breaks on the gloves and the removal of the belt-like red on his waist but all in all it's not hard to accept him as Spider-man. I also appreciate that we are getting a slimmer Spider-man, Ditko would be proud.

My verdict is that its a good costume though at times it is trying hard to be hip and modern. Though we still need to see an HD quality look for the whole costume. I would definitely want to see clearly the changes they made on the mask.

god....fanboys. judging from some pics and the movie is not even released. you want us to vote if he is a good adaptation? ok. apart from the suit which is taken form the great power mini series, i have to say that garfield played peter brilliantly and had witt and charm as spiderman. he was way better than maguire. i also loved the final spidey-lizard fight. can't wait for the dvd...cough*irony*cough...

My belief is with these superhero costumes, as long as you can tell at first glance who the character is my their costume, it is a good adaptation of that costume. When I saw the first pic of Spider-Man, i knew it was spider man. SAme with Cap and Thor.
