"HOW DID YOU COME UP WITH THIS?"

Dr. Curt Connors (The Amazing Spiderman, 2012).



Here's the new outfit, which has already cropped up a fair bit around the web.





My first thoughts were "a backward step in terms of the realism that the first film seemed intent on gunning for" but on reflection I think I quite like it... 

Admittedly I did like the first rebooted suit, but it's actually kind of fun to see something closer to the comics, and does this also mean that the next film will play tonally different- perhaps lighter? Will our next Spiderman film feel more like Marvel's ultra-successful Avengers film? Perhaps, and no bad thing.

On closer inspection, gone are the basket-ball textures of the first and instead we are given a more spandex-based leotard, more along the lines of what would readily be available to a typical high school kid.



It only seems like a few weeks ago that I was covering the lead up to The Amazing Spiderman, how time flies?
