That's actually a solid idea for a remodel since they keep fucking rebooting characters anyway: give Spider-Man a helmet.

So few super heroes wear any type of armor. Magneto wears a helmet, but mostly to stop Prof. X's powers. Batman wears some. Ironman has a whole ass suit. Superman is indestructible so he doesn't need it. Captain America only has a shield. I think that's it.

You'd think we the amount of hand-to-hand combat they do they'd wear something to protect themselves. Even Vegeta knows to wear armor and he's stronger than like 99% of superheroes.

4 mechanical arms, 2 human arms....and 2 human legs. So technically 8 limbs total.

His name is a LIE!

Or he's not counting his legs.

I rarely read superhero comics anymore because "bleh." Way too much reliance on McGuffins, deus ex machinas, and recycled plotlines. It doesn't seem like there's much thought into superpowers or how superheroes affect society.

For example, Spiderman. If he invents his own webs (rather than it being a power), he'd accomplish much, much more by sharing that invention. Imagine the industrial applications of Spiderman webs. It can be stored in a small cartridge, shoots long distances, and is sturdy. Why isn't Spiderman giving that shit to emergency services and hospitals? Why is he only using it to tie up bank robbers?

Then there's all the vigilante shit. Because you have special powers, you can just break the law and assault people? Or you don't have to buy malpractice insurance? Oh neat my car got totalled on the way to work because some asshole with a savior complex threw it at an alien (also aliens are real and your reaction is to throw stuff at them? What the fuck).
