Mark Bagley is a graduate of Ringling College.•• I hope you're not saying that panel is Bagley? That would be REALLY depressing!

As I've been skimming through the various Masterworks volumes, I find it interesting that so many iconic Spider-Man poses have come from Romita, rather than Ditko. Sure, Ditko gave us the quirky, insect-like movements (and a few iconic panel and cover poses), but Romita gave us one classic "money shot" after another (both in stories themselves, as well as in all the promotional and merchandising art he's done over the years). Romita may not have been able to copy the quirkiness of Ditko, but I think he gave Spider-Man a heapin' helpin' of grace and elegance in his movements, while still retaining the character's inhuman flexibility, as established by Ditko.

The artist above is Humberto Ramos. I hated his art when I first saw it on IMPULSE, but it grew on me. Whatever his flaws, his panels are usually very dynamic, and you get a sense of movement in his work.

I really liked it on IMPULSE, but find it now, while very dynamic, nearly incomprehensible in telling a story.

I think Ramos just fell into the whole manga trap. There's no way you can convince me that that pose of Spider-Man should be in a Marvel comicbook. Its horrible.

I agree that his storytelling can be very confusing at times.

Ramos was great on Impulse. Not feeling that Spidey art.

I'm seen plenty of things in Ramos' art that leads me to believe he can really draw, but he makes a stylistic choice that really doesn't work for me at all.

That's a nicely coloured picture, but Spider-Man seems to be suffering from a serious case of giganticism of the right leg.

I loved Steve Ditko on Spider-Man the best.
