I'm shocked they have her sporting her classic attire from the 70s-80s. Figured she'd be sportin that nasty looking modern suit they made her latest figure in.

She's not even wearing that biker-style costume anymore. In this series she'll debut a new costume

Meh, classic 70s-80s suit is the best imo.

This looks like a Spider-Miles inspired outfit, which is odd, considering that (this) Spider-Woman has no link to Spider-Man. Just like Black Widow doesn't. So why theyre putting her in an outfit that clearly pulls from Spider-Man's makes no sense to me. Either stick with the "biker" style or back to her original web winged red and yellow.

I get the feeling this costume was intended as a middle point between the biker-style and the classic costume. It's got the predominantly black and red color plalette of the biker-style and geometric logos not unlike the biker-style's own geometric spider, but it has the cowl and form-fittingness of the classic costume. The only thing I feel ties it to Spider-Man is the web pattern, but I guess Peter and Miles didn't trademark it.

I agree, though, that they should have stuck to the biker costume since it looked like they were comitted to it, or they should have gone back to the classic costume since plently of people seemed to be happy when it looked like she was going back to it.

Can't beat the classics. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

Aye Gigantor, I second that!

Besides Alex Ross covers, I really like the ARTGERM covers...had the new mutants#1 and thor #1...really great work..will likely get this spider woman ARTGERM variant...agree totally with you guys on how great the original spiderwoman costume is
