Scarlet Spider 2012

An Illusive Spider working in the shade of blood red.

July is Spidey Month for obvious reasons. It's been a while since I have actually been this super excited for Spider-Man since the whole 'One More Day' tirade that pretty much ruined everything for me in the Spider-Man mythos. Though I can even sullenly admit that even to this day, I myself haven't completely found myself caught back in the webs of Spider-Man's story. However once in a while I'll take a glance at what is going on (though lost in translation) in the Web-Head's world. Not too long ago I found myself running across the 'New Scarlet Spider' and well... I was impressed with how he looks. The whole Red and Black attire more than suffice for a more darker and a bit more intimidating Spidey! 

*Note* I will not go into it right now but! Scarlet Spider was also the name of Spidey's clone, Ben Reilly who donned another Spidey thread that had the color scheme of the original Spider-Man duds but a bit more... I don't know? It wasn't a bad thread at all, but it's not my favorite outfit. As seen in the left here! Heck even the Iron Spider armor (that Tony Stark provided) was even plastered as 'Scarlet Spider' when 'they' joined the Avengers Initiative. As abhorrent as this sounds, it wasn't even Ben, Kaine, or Peter that donned it(that is after Parker dissuades himself to join Cap's side in the Civil war!). As seen to the right!

My New favorite Spidey outfit!

I don't know the exact story line nor can I say if I will really delve into it with detail or have the energy and time to do so. I will say that if the art proves tantalizing (and it does) then I think when it's in cheap price I'll pick it up perhaps. Not that my myriad of activities doesn't keep me busy enough! However, designing the new Spidey the way they did had an efficacious result. Obviously! I'm blogging about it!

"Does whatever a Spider Can't."

Anyways! This concludes my little rant about another corner of the Marvel Universe. And yes, doesn't the new Scarlet duds look absolutely Amazing in the game?!
