About
Spider-Man Throwing Away Classic Costume and Putting on Black Suit is an three-panel image macro series featuring screenshots from the 2004 superhero film Spider-Man 2 and the 2007 superhero film Spider-Man 3. The first panel features Peter Park holding up his classic Spider-Man costume. The second is a screenshot of Parker walking away from the costume in a garbage can. Finally, the last panel features Parker putting on the black Spider-Man costume. The meme expresses one's desire to stop being good and take on negative personality traits.
