Sure looks like someone opened the door and taking a picture of him changing into his costume. Isn't that the point of the cover that Parker is being found out that he is Spider-man?

I just am not a fan of photo covers really. Be it this or something like that Sub Mariner ish where he is drawn but the background is a photograph….hate it Edited July 6, 2021 by comicginger1789 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I hate is everything else, the logo and everything that looks like someone spent ten seconds doing it in microsoft paint. Covers and art period that I really don't like is anything by alex ross who has the most boring comic art ever. He has no style,nothing. It all looks like just painted over photographs, no imagination, no creativity, all his expressions and poses are all way too realistic and booooooring.... Someone can actually dislike Alex Ross’ work? I didn’t think that was possible. Juno Beach and lizards2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much did they spend on blush alone? Yup. It was a source of intense jealousy amongst their British counterparts during the war, as it wasn’t until the end of rationing over here in the 1950s that ours could, at last, look just as fabulous.

Great to check them off my list for historical reasons, but considering their whole thing is literally standing completely still, their show is (or was, at least, when I saw them) pretty dull.

I can imagine. I’ve only ever seen the live concerts on TV, which was good enough for me. They did look like four suited accountants standing behind laptops. Not exactly Rammstein.
