Characters : Spider-Man : Costume : Patch-Up Jobs
A couple of times, Spidey's costume has been badly shredded, and he's
had to use the materials on hand to bring it back into service, for
example...
Cyber-Spider
 |
In Spider-Man #21, Spidey gets badly trashed. He gets knocked
unconscious, and when he comes around, he gets a bit of a shock.
He's been cyborgised!
Actually, it's not as permanent as it looks. Heck, it never is,
remember when the Punisher turned Black? Me, being foolish, thought
it might last!
Anyhow, it turns out in this case that Deathlok applied his personal
fixes to Spidey's wounds, resulting in a sling and an eye-patch which
looked much more serious than they actually were.

Black Cat Mask
|
In Spectacular Spider-Man #206 - Spidey has lost his mask. So
he grabs Black Cat's face-pieces so he can get home with his
secret identity intact - if not his dignity!
Just how the heck he thinks a couple of bits of skimpy black
cloth on his face are going to hide his identity, I have NO idea!

Ninja-Spider
 |
In Spectacular Spider-Man #214, Spidey has been shredded by
Typhoid Mary, who - as we all know - is not a very kind girl.
Anyhow, in order to hold his costume together, he ties himself
up like some sort of Ninja wannabe. It's hard to imagine that
these actually served any sort of useful purpose, but that's
what he did. I guess it looked a little cool, in the right
sort of light.

Lawrence of Arabia
|
In Spider-Man #89, Spider-Hunt is in full swing. Spidey is
public enemy number one, with a price on his head. When ends up
with Punisher and Shotgun fighting for the right to be the one
to waste him, he doesn't have time for things like sewing his
mask back together.
