I'm guessing that, had the series continued (at least with another miniseries, if not an ongoing), Gravity would probably have updated his costume to include a less-confusing emblem!

In yet another of the book's nice touches, the one character who got the 'arrows in a globe pointing inward = gravity' connection was Spider-Man. Considering that Peter's a scientifically-minded smart cookie, there was something fitting about that bit that tickled me no end.

I also liked the fact that, despite being cut along traditional superhero costume lines, there were elements like the 'goalie gloves', and what look suspiciously like sneakers, that helped reinforce the idea that it was a home-made costume that a college freshman threw together. Compare that to both Spider-Man movie costumes, neither of which could have possibly been constructed without the resources and budget of a Hollywood costume department!

Do you see the arrow in the FedEx logo?

I didn't read many comics during the 90's but would pick one up from time to time.  The "fashion" trend that caught my eye during that era was the leather jacket phase.  The first time I saw Reed Richards stretching and Johnny Storm flamed on wearing leather jackets, I actually laughed out loud.  I also remember picking up a Morbius issue during the"Midnight Sons" line.  I thought to myself "You have got to be kidding me."  Trying a little too hard to be "edgy".  Little did I know that was only the beginning...it would get far worse. 

Earlier today I was trying to find an image of the leather jacket clad FF and the search pulled up FF #375 on Marvel Wiki.  I started looking at all the covers thru #416.  What surprised me was the EiC was Tom DeFalco. I considered him one of the "old guard".  I can't believe he would go for such an idiotic look.
