Millarworld has seen the previews, and wants to know what’s going on:
We know it’s coming. And i do love me theories. Who wants to take a stab at why they brought back the black costume?
a–if it’s the symbiote–did he embrace it for feeling all pouty?
b–did he find it in the closet and decide to piss off Stark by not wearing his new duds anymore?
PS- how the hell are they gonna bring Brock back?
Thankfully, cynicism wins the day:
“My guess is the black is back because the black suit is in Spidey 3.”
“Thats exactly what i thought.”
“Movie promotional cheap tie-in is my guess too…”
Whatever happened to optimism? Oh, that’s right; it’s Marvel Comics.

I heard Joe Q’s interview on Fanboy Radio last week, and in it he said that it was just a happy coincidence that they were bringing the black suit back at the same time as Venom was making an appearance in Spider-Man 3. You don’t have to believe him, but that’s what he said.

I do believe him, oddly enough. It’s not the first thing that Marvel have plucked out of the past to revive today, is it?

Hey, that was my post on Millarworld you picked up. Go me.

Imagine that, another “happy coincidence” with a Marvel movie…

Cynicism tells me that it’s a movie ploy, but I have to believe that Spidey’s going retro as an aftershock to North v. South. Maybe JMS will retcon the Marvel Universe to “forget” about the black duds so that he can wear em hassle-free. Or could it be Kraven?! Back for one more hunt?! “Stark unleashes the most premiere secret weapon against Spider-Man!! OMG Super Russian Dead Guy!” I say give Spidey one more crack at the Captain Universe powers so he can just blow the crap out of the 616. Then Galactus will show up and go, “Hey, are you gonna eat that?”

J. M. DeMatteis, where are you know when we need you most?
Oh yeah, making twice as much money as he ever made on Spider-man with Abadazad.

We live in a world of Marketing and movie tie-ins. There’s no way in hell that this is a ‘happy coincidence’. Unless you live in a world where everything that comes out of Joe Quesada’s mouth is true, there’s a pot o’ gold at the end of every rainbow and dreams really do come true…

Maybe that’s not really Ironman! Oh excuse me Captain America! Spider-Man? We’re talking about Spider-Man changes now? Oh whatever. As long as he’s still married I’m fine.
