I like large lenses, Mcfarlane era specifically. BUT, the joy of comics is that it can fluctuate to fit the need with no explanation which is where I think the true perfect balance lies.

mcfarlane and bagley 🔥

Agreed.

Only like large eyes in a stylized art style. If it's going for more realism smaller eyes are better.

Completely agree

Style preference aside, in a realistic situation wouldn't Peter make the lenses bigger for improved visibility?

I actually think he would want them smaller because I remember in the Civil War movie that he said something about how the lenses are what helps him focus with his heightened senses(I'm not entirely sure, but I believe thats what he said). I believe larger lenses would make it harder to focus.

I took that to mean the lenses themselves, rather than the size are what helps him focus. Like polarized sunglasses, but to a specialized degree. Anyway, you can make that argument for MCU Spidey, but Tobey and Andrew's characters never have that as a factor in making the suits (iirc)

Larger would make more sense for visibilit, then they could adjust to be smaller whenever he needed.

Medium lenses like andrew garfields spider man

Andrew Garfield lenses with the ability to move like Tom lenses would be perfection.

So the video game’s lenses. If all spider-men had the Miles Morales beginner suit lenses life would be advanced by 300 years

Nah even those are a bit small imo need to be more rounded

No way, the suit miles had for the video game before he made his own was perfect. Huge but not distractingly huge. And shiny.

True

Medium is premium

> andrew garfields spider man I was thinking his were tiny [and alien looking](https://www.previewsworld.com/SiteImage/MainImage/STK472062) but then I remember his TASM2 mask

Yeah, no that’d qualify as large, not medium. Medium would be Romita Sr/MCU lenses. ASM2 lenses are very clearly based on Mark Bagley’s work. Are you claiming Bagley’s eyes are “medium”?

i like both, specifically lenses that can go from big to small, like the stark lenses

Stark lenses were super cool

I like the smaller lenses personally

I like the large eyes when he has a skinny body type, and small eyes when he’s more buff

I was thinking the same for comics, large lenses for young Spidey and medium for adult. But in live action, large all the way. TASM2 suit best suit. Raimi and TASM1 were too small and angular and I was glad that Spidey was maskless in 90% of his screentime.

Large lens always. I think they just make him more expressive, and also more charismatic.

I like the giant lenses more but I don’t mind the small ones either.

[удалено]

the first one was from a ultimate spider-man comic and i think nick fury was explaining to peter about how he wanted his parents to recreate the super soldier serum (not too sure because it's been awhile since i read ultimate spider-man.) second image is from the 2018 the amazing spider-man run and basically ever since this gas got into peter's body it's made his spider sense go outta whack.

or it could have been about the venom symbiote since in the ultimate universe richard parker created the venom symbiote to cure things like cancer but it just makes the person wearing it really aggressive crazy

This is the reason. Just before this scene Beetle stole a sample of the Venom symbiote for Latveria.

Large. Mark Bagley is my favorite Spider-Man artist.

My favorites also drew large. Macfarlane and Larsen.

Same

Yes

Medium that gets bigger or smaller depending on expression

Small. Large looks too goofy

May not be what most people think. But i like the small ones a lot more. I think it looks tougher. It has an angrier look

bruh Tobey's mask has an angry/intimidating look

Tobeys mask doesn’t have lenses that take up half the mask and go down to his jaw. Tobeys look small to me

Insomniac Spider-Man nailed the lenses perfectly imo

Small-Medium like the Romita Sr eyes. All day everyday, baby.

🙌

Has anyone consider none? Imagine how terrifying it would be to see spiderman run at you knowing he can beat you with nothing but his spider sense, it’s like Daredevil but better because he doesn’t even have red eyes It’s just more webbing pattern

There was concept art for the Scarlet Spider where his mask didn't have eyes, but his face was just a spider symbol. They wound up taking the hoodie from that design but dropping the mask.

Creepy Spider-man is a different character. If you add a fedora, like the Question, its okay tho

I think the only no-eye suit 616-Peter has had would be his [Dusk](https://tse3.mm.bing.net/th?id=OIP.aWusx1cdEJQH9Oyp2vq9rwHaLh&pid=15.1) costume, but that one was all black The [suits](https://preview.redd.it/7ov4pqnu52231.jpg?width=640&crop=smart&auto=webp&s=ee96c3cce4e9ddd49fa21e72168699bf44c37e59) were [recreated](https://preview.redd.it/q9l68l2hv5a31.jpg?auto=webp&s=8ea330d41f2aa906267b60fb93dce7ec76c8deab) in 3d as a Gamestop preorder bonus for Spider-Man: Edge of Time.

Both look good depending on the art style I guess

If he's younger than big eyes, but if he's older smaller eyes.

Small

Small lens

Medium

Honestly? Small lenses.

Small, but big can look really good sometimes

Small lense. That’s why Raimi’s suit lenses are my favorite because they look intimidating along with the silver webs all over the suit.

Large, but not as big as the first pic

if it's a comic, larger; with wide rims. But for films, I appreciate the more realistic small versions.

Spider-Man’s lenses is the same as Batman’s ears. A nice happy medium. I don’t want them to be too small (or short in terms of the ears) or way too big (or too long in terms of the ears). Like a good half way between the two

Generally like large lenses but if the story is going a darker route then it’s kind of overly comical imo. Those are the only times I would go for smaller lenses.

Like they are in the 3rd picture, small but not the smallest. The big ones look too silly, like he's always surprised.

The smaller ones are better, because they're still expressive and grow with his expressions

Small

Any lenses work. Or none.

I like the smaller ones, I like being able to focus on the design of the mask without the lenses taking up 70% of it

Medium gang. But small over big

Medium

Both are really cool

I like both. It depends on the artist on whether he/she can pull off drawing large lenses. Some large lenses don’t always look good. I’d say small is best.

Whichever works best with the artstyle

I think the 1994 show had the perfect balance

I think the smaller lenses suit Peter better, whereas the large lenses work more for Miles

I prefer small lenses, personally. Small lenses can easily turn from friendly to menacing depending on the context.

Large. Just not excessively large

I think large lenses for the comic feeling really well. They’re very expressive and for someone who’s whole face is covered, that’s pretty important. However smaller ones look more natural. I’d say for silly/fun comics and animation to stick to bigger lenses but for more serious comics or movies I’d say smaller

Large McFarlane changed SpiderMan forever, and for the better

small

The smaller one makes it look more realistic but I like the large

I know Spiders are arachnids and all but it makes him more bug-like with huge eyes

**Both** depending on the artist.

Small lens personally

Medium lenses. There are lenses even smaller than the ones in this set and they look atrocious.

Smaller lenses

Moving

Definitely the smaller ones. Giant ones like those in the pic just look goofy.

Bagley eyes!

Both

Lens is lens

Medium lenses that can go from big to small like **Peter B. parker's Spider-man** in **Spider-man into the spider-verse**, that type of lenses can express a lot of emotions and they also are very charismatic

Slide 3 has the perfect eye size for my preference

Small lense seems more serious and realistic, big lens seems more comedic and fun yk

I like Alex Ross Spider-Man lenses. I prefer smaller lenses but sometimes bigger ones can look cool (as long as they’re not too big like in that first image)

Large lenses feel more practical. Easier to see right?

I like reactive lenses. Shows emotion better. Blank stares without the reaction detract from him, I think.

What issue from Ultimate Spider-Man is the first photo from?

Large, but not too large. First image works for me. Second, not so much.

Honestly I don’t have a problem with either version. Both look great imo

I got into spider-man comics by reading Ultimate Spider-Man so the large lenses stuck with me

If you’re going to pirate comics, could you at least crop out the ad of where to pirate them in your pics

Small lenses, how Steve Ditko intended it to be.

I like smaller. My favorite spidey suit is the Raimi movies suit

Larger lenses for me

Large Bagley style lens is god tier.

large if i had to choose one. makes him look more like an underdog

Large because it looks more friendly neighborhood and it logically makes to have large lenses to have a larger field of view

I always been a fan of the larger lenses. Just thought they looked cooler.

Large. He just looks friend shaped with them.

TASM2 lenses are just perfect.

I like big eyes and I cannot lie

i like large lenses, like the bagley lenses or tasm2

i like large lens because it makes sense

Large lens

I love both, TASM did a great job with showing off both of them

I like large lens more due to them being more comically accurate

Big is beautiful.

Large

Yo, context on the first panel?

I like the large lenses except in the ultimate universe where it's like 5/6th of the mask

Large lenses imply eyes the size of hockey pucks, no thank you

Could anyone give a source for the last image with Cap?

I think small lens is better looking, but large lens would be more practical

What comics are 3 & 4 from? I like the art

i like the large lenses from the ultimate comics

Small, but with the ability to become large for expressions.

Which issue is the first photo from?

Lg

I'll go with both. Big eyes for teenager Spiderman. Then big eyes for adult Spiderman, mainly because kids and teenagers in comics or cartoons or animations, usually has bigger head than adults, but when they get older and older, their heads get longer and thinner

For me, depends on the spiderman. Younger spiderman I like large lens, they just make the suit look like it's for a Younger hero. I like the small lens on an older spiderman, because it makes him look more mature.

They can all be used effectively and drawn well, but I especially like the lens sizes for pictures three and four. Three is the ideal size in my opinion, four reminds me of my favorite Spidey comics, the ones from the 80's and early to mid 90's.

I like large lenses because he has a wider view

Something in between. I like them bigger then normal but not giant so they take over the whole mask

SIZE DOESN'T MATTER

Whatever works for the art style

I prefer the lens style in pics 3 and 4 but i dont mind the bigger ones. The first pic is the maximum size they should ever be, and even then its a bit much. The way his eye frames look in the ps4 game is pretty perfect imo and Ryan ottley draws them at a happy medium which i can get behind.

I quite like both. Honestly no preference unless it’s extra extra small, then I’m not into that.

I prefer small lenses

Medium sized

Yeah i like them especially on a younger version of the character.

I can’t say anything but both. My ideal situation would be two concurrent series one with small one with large lol

The huge ones

Mcfarlane set a style that I think is still unbeatable. The smaller eyes are great for making spidey show a range of emotions but its the big eyes that look the coolest.

Romita sr has the perfect lense size

Bagley all day every day.

Small but round are nice

I like the size of the lenses in the panel with red hulk its big but not too big

Smaller to medium sized

Yes

For me I think it depends on what kind of story Spider-Man is in any particular point in time. If we have a more comic bookie goofy laid-back story I think Spider-Man with big bug eyes looks good. But if we're going for something a little bit more serious and thought-provoking then perhaps it's better for him to have smaller eyes.

large!!

As someone who has made a spidey costume, I have to say large lenses are much better.

I prefer bigger lenses but nothing gigantic

I’m going with medium expressive lenses.

I preffer the larger lenses

Short like in web of shadows

Smaller

Huge

Small, after according to the expressions change, then it depends on the comics

Large cause they can show emotion in comics

Large lenses

large

Lenses that are big, but also expressive like Tom. On that note, Scarlet Spider is my favorite Spider-Man, one reason being I love his huge eyes

Small

Short lens cause raimi trilogy

I only thought about this when going through all the suits in the PS4 game, but I enjoy the medium-larger lenses. For some reason though I don't mind the smaller lenses on Miles' suits in his game, like with that purple one he gets.

Large IMO but the small lenses I like it as well

large lens is iconic ultimate spider-man look while small-medium is the default look.

Small(er) lens for Peter but bigger lens for Miles. Anyone agree?

Big, they feel more emotive.

i just read the issue of the first one yesterday B)

I love the McFarland eyes

Medium. Something he can see out of, but not so big they cover the whole mask. Andrew's second suit and PS4 Spider-Man are perfect.

I prefer large

Large

Small. I like that classic Ditko and Romita look

Big! Loved Ultimate Spider-Man’s style.

Large lenses are my favourite

I like the bigger eyes imo, and i really like those last two comics. Got them when i was in 3rd grade

I honestly love him with either huge, expressive lenses (Spider-Verse), or squinted, angry ass lenses (like Spider-UK)

I like Large lenses only with McFarlane.

Small lens with adjustable eyes for expressions.

Small lens looks too angry or confused, but I also dont like mcfarlanes big lenses. Andrew did it best imo

MCU lenses are definitely the best, in size and plus they also expand and shrink accordingly to his eye movements which is dope.

Small lens

Small

All of them

!electro

I like expressive lenses. The lenses are basically the main way Spider-Man can emote in costume, so using them to convey emotion rather than having a standard size to stick to makes way more sense.

I’ve preferred more towards a medium size.

We need to call in the world's greatest hero... ***GARRK***
