Spider-Man: Ranking Every Comic Costume Worst To Best

When most people think of Spider-Man, they picture the familiar red and blue costume, but as any comic book fan will tell you, our Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man has worn a ton of outfits over the years.

When he first started out, it took a little bit of work for Peter Parker to come up with a look that worked. As new artists and writers took their time to make the character their own over the years, things changed. Spider-Man went through various costume redesigns and upgrades over the years, but most versions retained nods to his classic look.

From the infamous, yet beloved Black Costume to the Armored Spider-Man seen in recent MCU films, Spidey sure has a lot of duds. So, with that in mind, this list identifies and ranks the best costumes used in the comics. While some have been seen in movies and animation, each was seen at least once before within the pages of Spider-Man's comic books.

They are ranked on the basis of their popularity, usefulness in the comics, overall design and aesthetic look, and how well the suits relate to everyone's beloved web-slinger.

Back when Spider-Man debuted in Amazing Fantasy #15, Peter Parker was just breaking into the exciting world of entertainment via a wrestling match he entered to earn some quick cash.

Unlike the ways it has been depicted in the films, the original comic had Spider-Man debut in blue slacks, a white collared shirt, loafers, and a mask made of webbing, which worked for his purposes, but didn't look great in the long run.
