Costume Spotlight: Spider-Man's Advanced Suit

Of the thousands of comic book characters out there, I'm pretty sure none has had as many video games as Spider-Man has. Wikipedia lists 35, stretching all the way back to the Atari 2600, and the newest one - simply called Spider-Man - debuted earlier this month (September 7) on PS4.

The game was first announced at E3 in 2016, which is also where they showcased a new suit that would appear in the game and took focus in most of the marketing.

A similar suit debuted in Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man #305 (June 2018), which came out the same week as E3. There are several differences between the two outfits (especially at the wrists and ankles), but it's clearly supposed to evoke the Advanced Suit of the game.

But in case that's not close enough to count for you, never fear. The character himself appears in Spider-Geddon #0, out today!

Spider-Geddon is a sequel to the recent Spider-Verse event, which famously included "every Spider-Man ever". They did a pretty good job with that, so will this be the only new addition? Surely there are a couple they weren't able to include before - I don't ever recall seeing MTV's Spider-Man, for instance, and Atari's Spider-Man almost certainly never showed up. Anyway, I'm excited to find out!
