It might come as a surprise to you, but Spider-Man occupies a fair bit of our daily ponderings at the Major Spoilers HQ. While a lot of people like to focus on the Steve Ditko eyes and how they should work or not work, we’re more interested in Spider-Man’s webpits. On the one hand, they bring a unique aesthetic to the character, but on the other hand, they seem like a real incumbrance in a fight.
Where do you stand?
Warning: Pregnant women, the elderly, and children under 10 should avoid prolonged exposure to the Robot Overlord. Robot Overlord may suddenly accelerate to dangerous speeds. The Robot Overlord contains a liquid core, which if exposed due to rupture, should not be touched, inhaled, or looked at. If Robot Overlord begins to smoke, get away immediately. Seek shelter and cover head. Do not taunt the Robot Overlord.

I started reading when there were web pits and got used to them, so yes!
I’m fine if they’re there, I’m fine if they aren’t. So “should?” No.
I first saw the webpits on Spider Woman (in the animated show) so to me, those are her thing, not Peter’s. Also they make more sense on Jessica’s costume because she can glide. So no, no webpits for Spider-Man
I think so. I like the look, and my headcanon is that they’re stretchy, so they don’t really hamper his movement.
