That said, let us now turn our attentions to some new Spider memorabilia. The much-awaited camera close-ups of the full Tom Holland suit for the impending Spider-Man: Brand New Day are here, and the internet has come together to go nuts over it. The image went viral on Twitter, enabling high-definition views of the suit while spawning debates, memes, and an onslaught of nostalgia.

Let’s talk about the suit; or rather, like its fans, the suit has its own story. It is a hybrid of retro and contemporary approaches, with more emphasis on Brand New Day-style comics. Some of the vocal crowd (and we have to call them that because Spider-Man fans are absolute gamers when it comes to dissecting every pixel of this stuff) are comparing it to the one in Amazing Spider-Man 2. Then, for some odd reason, yet some appreciate the look inspired by Terry Dodson. Though, as further comment said, “still dumb tho” when referring to the movie’s title.

However, Tom Holland in the suit? That is ingrained. The still shot has him mid-action, appearing every bit the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. Then there are a few who are still questioning, with one comment basically asking, “Is that really him? He doesn’t seem as in shape as usual. Is this actually him?” Cue the theories.

And herein lies the classic split amongst the Spider-Man fandom. Some fans are screaming in delight, basically including what they said, “The joy this photo brings me. Feeling like a kid again.” Then some dig in: “This Suit Looks Shit.” Let’s never forget the chaotic “I need his web in me” because the internet is going to do its thing.

Set shots ignite much of the spicy goodness in this pot, so it’s no different with this one. There were some scared of spoilers; one remarked, “These set photos spoil everything.” At least some of us here are just vibing; one even claimed ghost emojis as excitement.

Mask debates. One asked, “How quickly does the mask come off and on so he can do it multiple times during the movie just in case we forget who’s in the suit!” Because, well, Hollywood loves reminding us it’s Tom under there.

Let us take a guess: The suit will ignite many discussions; the movie is well hyped, and Tom Holland remains Spider-Man. So there you have it: Whether you hate it, love it, or just want to see more web slinging, one thing is certain: Spider-Man: Brand New Day already occupies rent-free space in everyone’s heads. And honestly? Same.

Excuse me while I go ahead and wallow in staring at this HD pic for a little while and maybe half-convinced to actually swing through New York.
