I honestly believe that, DC and Marvel have deals with toy companies that they have to create a new costume or gimmick every year so the toy companies have something new to sell.....it can only explain all the lame garbage that they put out every few months..... -
Derivative characters means more action figures
The 90s isn't all it was cracked up to be
I do start running out of exceptions after awhile,lol
I guess some could say the '80s were bad compared to the '70s as well....and on and on.Leave a comment:

It's the same with all the franchise characters these days... Just look at the Hulk Family. Derivative characters means more action figures as well. Although I'm enjoying Flash Thompson as the military commando Venom, it's kind of a nice break from two decades of I'll eat your brains Venom. It also feels much like an early Spidey book because Flash just can't catch a break. he tries to do the right thing, but the symbiot just keeps messing it up for him... But without it he's just a legless vet.
but you don't need Venom, because Eddie Brock is running around now as Anti Venom. Plus just to show that it is the nineties all over again, the Scarlet Spider s back.Leave a comment:

McFarlane started on "Amazing" #298, the intro of Eddie Brock as Venom....
I cant get into what they are doing now either. It just isnt good design work and it looks as if theres tons of different Spidermans running around in the Marvel Universe for those who really arent keeping up with the books on a regular basis. Spiderman has definately lost his uniqness.Leave a comment:

In Spider-man vs Wolverine, he was stuck on the wrong side of the Berlin Wall and stole a costume that had "Die Spinne" on the back of it.Leave a comment:

I recall a time when Spider-Man's real costume was destroyed/stolen or something, and he had to go into battle in a cheap Halloween version. It kept coming off, he even had to web his boots up. Now he walks over to his walk-in closet "Hmm...do I feel like white today? Maybe black? Hows about Halo Exo-Suit?"

I just can't get into Spider-Man anymore...He's too popular within the Marvel Universe, being an Avenger, on the F.F., buddies with Iron Man, for someone that was always the underdog...Leave a comment:

Actually Ron Frenz designed Bag Man. I have that comic. It was a RIOT. But again, Spidey had to resort to that just to get home. Nowadays he'd have Stark International design him one and send it over. Sigh.

I don't think folks had a chance to blink after this one debuted last year before he started wearing the white FF uniform.
Lo and behold not long after
Year before that we had this one

I don't think this s a reaction to DC's new 52. Spiderman's been getting on average new Special mission suit once or twice a year now for a while. Inevitably a few months later a new action figure is released by Hasnro which reelects the new (temporary sales bump) look.
What takes the cake for me is that the Amazing Bag Man is being made into a figure... Which probably indicates a certain desperation for Spiderman variant costumes to make into toys. Although it WAS designed by McFarlane.
