Default What's your favorite Spider-emblem?

Just a fun little thread with something I got to thinking about the other day: What's your favorite Spider-Man chest emblem? I'm torn between the John Romita version he used during the early days of the newspaper strip and the design on the black costume as rendered by Art Adams.

Thanks. I think they are both iconic, powerful looks.

I liked the redesign of the Spider-Emblem John Romita Sr did in ASM over the original design of Steve Dikto it looked better to me.
That Spider-Emblem by John Romita Sr did not changed much untill now,and works well in Spider-Man original costume.

I am a big fan of the Spider-Emblem of the black costume,no preference for any artist ilustration.I think many artist that drawned that costume got the Spider-Emblem right.

A Spider-Emblem i liked as well but is from a villain is from the original Tarantula.
Very well done visually speaking.A original design by Sal Buscema i think.

I really dislike the movie version. It just seems off somehow. Not a fan of the Iron Spider design, either -- however, I did like the Spider-design Alex Ross came up with:
Also like this as a possible costume design:

The eyes and the emblem looks really ugly to me.

I like that one, too, probably because it is sort of a cross between the classic Spider and the one on the black costume.

So he runs into a nearby costume shop to buy a Spider-Man costume, but all he can find is a generic knock off "Spider-GUY" suit so that the costume company doesn't have to pay Spidey the rights to use his image. Spidey swings into battle with the new suit, and everybody thinks its a "new look" when in fact it is being worn out of necessity.

In terms of emblems, I actually prefer the movie version. Or at the very least, the emblem with the top four legs of the spider pointing up and the bottom four legs of the spider pointing down.

That would be sweet to see in the comics.
