love the new electro look. screw the haters
This story better be good, seeing as how they´ve hyped the crap out of it already..
Electro looks pretty sick here. I’d like to see the same artist do an alternate version with Electro in his old costume just to see.
“What was wrong with the classic look by Steve Ditko?”
No one could take him seriously with that mask. That’s what happened.
I like the art by Dell’Otto, but it’s not enough to make me want to buy the book. I also don’t care for this look for Electro, what with the Kermit the frog collar they’ve given him in this promo. What was wrong with the classic look by Steve Ditko? Also, I really miss the mask. 🙁
As for Dan Slott’s comment, I’m confused: hasn’t Electro already evolved beyond “simple super villain to a living force of nature”, like, a couple of times already? He had Spidey beg for his life when the Rose and Delilah upgraded his powers in DeFalco’s “Amazing Spider-Man” run in the 90s, he helped break out all of those villains from prison when Bendis started “New Avengers”, and he almost killed Spidey by using his upgraded powers more intelligently during Millar’s “Marvel Knights Spider-Man” #3. I’d say Electro’s long since become “power incarnate”, wouldn’t you?
