This was Ross’s “take that” to Sins Past. He’s protecting Gwen from Marvel editors.
Hey that’s my job! lol
Totally agree, I’ve always loved Ross’ take on Spider-Man. The mask design is very Romita, and that design of the spider-symbol is like Gil Kane-Romita-esque during the Conway run. It just looks so dynamic.
